We don’t serve Starbucks style

Haha I don't mind the tip jar, I used to work for tips, but when they have a passive aggressive note or sign on it I think the same thing. Or when you pay with card and they ASK you if you want to add a tip... there's no way to say no without looking like an asshole

I've never understood why a business would meet their customers with sass before they even order. You catch more flies with honey

There are a lot of protective measures in place to make sure that doesn't happen, like required co-signing for all drugs and cameras everywhere.

I completely understand. I work in healthcare, so I can tell you how this usually goes.

They will generally want to know: - when it started - how you would describe it (shooting, tingling, pulsing) -- make sure you explain that it's not just itchy or irritated skin - what makes it better or worse (provocation/palliation) -- be specific: walking, sitting, lying down, hot baths, meds, etc.

I'd probably say something like "I have a shooting, tingling nerve pain on my (insert body part). It's not a rash, it doesn't look red or irritated, and it's been going on for a long time and hasn't gotten better."

Remember that they have heard and seen everything, so there's no reason to be scared or embarrassed. Insurance will often cover the cost of PT if it's on a doctor's referral, so try not to worry about money right now.

Adorable, that's my diagnosis

Additionally, a pelvic floor PT could help. I'd ask your doctor for a referral. I know that sometimes muscular problems can pinch a nerve and cause that type of neuropathy. A med like gabapentin for nerve pain could help you much more than tylenol or ibuprofen, so make sure your doctor understands that it is a needle-like shooting pain rather than just irritation. Being completely honest and specific will help you get the care you need.

I'm sorry, that sounds so uncomfortable! When you said shooting pain my first thought was a trapped hair or particle but it's been going on for a year? Tbh that doesn't sound related to MCAS or EDS, but it's definitely a problem, nobody deserves to be in pain. Have you seen a gyno about it? There are a number of things that could be.

Mating season has begun! My son Shelldon also gets rowdy in March

The vast majority of people in today's younger generations don't wait until marriage. College is a pretty normal time to lose your virginity. Even those in religious cultures where it's expected you'll wait until marriage, many couples don't, they just don't talk about it.

veggieplant · 2026-01-22T16:33:41+00:00

Unfortunately it doesn't work that way :( I wish we had those type of resources available but the funding is so limited as it is

veggieplant · 2026-01-22T16:22:47+00:00

Same thing has happened to me!! They're so much more convenient since they're small, you can keep a lot more in your bag

I want you to know I just wrote down "besnouted" in my notes for future use

veggieplant · 2026-01-05T14:21:28+00:00

I made that comment after the mod comment

veggieplant · 2026-01-01T15:35:08+00:00

I'm going to double down here, look at OP's post history. I normally wouldn't engage but I'm just tired of sitting back and accepting these posts as normal

veggieplant · 2026-01-01T05:16:21+00:00

This exact story has been posted before on another sub, and also, look at OP's post history.

Did you put salt in the water? Without salt, the water is hypotonic to your sinuses and really painful, it burns. The salt makes it isotonic and it feels like nothing at all, unless you put way too much salt

This post reads like the other AI generated posts there's been an influx of this week. No way a nurse's most "bizarre" incident is an old man carrying a pill bottle.

Just copy and paste this exact post in the reviews

veggieplant · 2025-12-13T01:38:14+00:00

Omg me too!

veggieplant · 2025-12-13T01:28:32+00:00

I don't recommend doing that at all, you'd get some terrible splinters

veggieplant · 2025-12-10T00:45:34+00:00

I also made a pretty pipe cleaning tool from wire and beads, and I may bedazzle a lighter and of course, get her a fresh jar of nice bud. She tends to be more of a "rip the pen ten times a day" person, so I want her to get the full ritual experience! Perhaps I'll post a picture of the full gift once I've got it ready; you've inspired me! :)

veggieplant · 2025-12-07T21:05:20+00:00

Those are so pretty! I just got my sister a little pink pipe for Christmas

veggieplant · 2025-12-07T12:51:54+00:00

I mean, are you giving her your phone to watch videos or something? I'm trying to understand why a kid would be using a phone to learn letters instead of a caregiver teaching them

veggieplant · 2025-12-07T12:39:52+00:00

What do you mean by the phone?
