GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

Thanks, folks.

It's nothing new. Just another endoscopy, but since the old doc hasn't figured it out in a year and a half, the new doc wants to take a fresh look to make sure the previous doc didn't miss something.

When I was in the emergency room, after being called in by a doctor that ended up committing malpractice by bullying me into coming back for NOTHING...I had to pay a deposit. They wanted 2k, but I only had 500 on a card.

Despicable.

Wow, that's absolutely ridiculous!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Good thing everyone's super committed to keeping the health care system just the way it is!

BAH.

Because books.

Aw, I love the thread title.

-t, you are never blinvisible here.

Health care = BAH pretty much sums it up, I think, Jesse.

Compassionately intolerant

Wow, that's absolutely ridiculous!

Two cases of malpractice that nearly killed me in two years.

Keep the medical system the same? Not my vote.

The thread change-over was fun to catch up on.

Occasionally I’m callous and strange

2k is OBSCENE. As was the malpractice, the almost dying, and having to go through a second endoscopy due to incompetence by first doc :(

BAH indeed!

Me and my parents at a foodie restaurant is kinda awkwardly hilarious. But I got us through it. Probably not something they'd seek out on their own, but I think I fed them well, they liked most of the food (I can cop to the same, tried the beets, I was right to be suspicious. But they loved them.) and it was a new experience for them.

Our waitress was definitely more suited to the epicurean set and definitely had a performance (uh, she'd lapse into French and I was all, oh, you mean cheese!) wasted on us rubes - we had more in common with the busboys. No, seriously, it was funny. She was so annoyed they hadn't brought us fresh plates and silverware between plates,and as she went off to remedy it, mom stage whispered to me, "the Quaker in me is frowning on all this unnecessary plate changes." I just started laughing, as I don't care either. Teased mom we could assuage our sensibilities by thinking of the extra dishwashers the practice employs.

I mean, everyone has their own snobbish. No way in hell this trio of New Mexicans was going to order the enchiladas at a spendy MD restaurant, we know it'd not compare to our comfort food favorite hole in the walls at quarter the cost in the hometown. (Which all three of us have a different favorite.)

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Rooomy. I like that in a new thread, and I appreciate the conversation pit and the fire pit outside and the pit of despair behind the stockroom closet.

It's pitty.
