Mal ,'War Stories'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I'm not sure I knew about the duck corkscrew penis back when the duck necrophilia story consumed the board.
It was like the spicy dipping sauce for a meal of nuggets of WTF?
Ugh, remind me not to get into pet discussions anywhere. I don't get them, and people think I'm a heartless freak.
I don't get to have regular meatspace contact with any of the Buffistas thanks to geography and workaholism, so I guess finding out about my eventual untimely end will have to be a matter of someone noticing I haven't posted in Boxed Set in weeks and checking up on me.
I piece on how people report (or don't report) pain: [link]
megan walker knows my brother, so she'd likely be the first to hear of my passing.
Seeing him this weekend in fact! I'll be sure to tell him he needs to report to me ASAP if you go to that big pink refrigerator in the sky.
I can't read that at work. It's making me too upset.
Last time I went into the ER, the nurse didn't ask me where I was on the pain scale to start off with. He just suggested ten. I've mentioned to at least one nurse I have a migraine pain scale (which goes to 11), and it's not the same one I use for other stuff.
BTW, I totally get that woman's reticence, even if not *all* of the vanity. I hide my bruises because I don't want to talk about them. I know they look bad aesthetically. I look bad. End of story.
I'm sorry, ita. I wish i could take the link back.
No, no. I have to keep reading stuff like that. I just get emotional, and that's my shortcoming.
Did anyone link to the napping baby pandas yet?
They did link to a paper that discusses a new technique for recognizing pain through MRI. It's a neurology study, I think. They're getting closer to being able to "see" pain. So, in lieu of actually fixing you, hopefully you'll be able to produce an MRI at emergency that shows the storm in your brain and ask them if they could handle it, or wouldn't they like to STFU and give you your meds, now.
I did know about the duck corkscrew penises, yes.
Did you know about the Argentinian lake duck corkscrew penises?
