The private-industry oligarchs who control the government deliberately keep the VA underfunded and lovely so Americans don't learn that socialized medicine, when properly run, can be far more practical, affordable and humane than for-profit medicine. (I actually kind of believe this. )

This isn't the place for a de-rail, but i don't disagree; however, what I and a lot of other vets have experienced with socialized healthcare has been a loving nightmare. I have problems with being tired all the time regardless of the amount of rest I get, and difficulty breathing after my last deployment. They have pushed back my appointments just to be seen for my initial consult for nearly a year.

Depending on where you were, punks were still outcasts. People still didn't use their brains and your parents wanted to be updated on where you were, even without cell phones. Eyeliner was not acceptable on boys (they would probably be harassed for being a "fag", regardless of sexuality) and teenage girls have always used too much foundation. Midriff baring shirts have been a thing since the late 80's I think. I graduated highschool in '97. Whoever made that is delusional. Kids will always worry about popularity. I think that is part of being a teenager. I'm agreeing with you, by the way. Sandweed posted:I'm pretty sure it's a troll it has to be it's just to inane. I hope so.

Aerofallosov posted:Yeah, I have a rabidly pro-Isreal person posting on Facebook. I had to hide his posts or risk giving in to the urge to correct him. My Facebook is usually a liberal echo chamber so it's mostly pro-Palestine and the smug levels are every bit as irritating even when they're normally in the right.

The incompetence of the VA is rather funny when you consider that the VA itself is staffed exclusively by veterans.

You itch because of histamine. Histamine takes a lot of heat to denature. You're asking for at least 2nd degree burns if you do this with the intent of actually deactivating the trigger for the itching. On top of that this trick works because it's just another way to scratch the itch. It just doesn't break the skin which can cause scabs and further itchiness.

Rev. Bleech_ posted:ugh, again? Can't we just get beyond Thunderdome? Well, technically it's a completely seperate movie set in the same universe... It just so happens to be about someone called Mad Max, an ex-MFP officer, whose family is killed by a biker gang and he goes on a revenge rampage against strange lawless bands of bandits in the australian desert. See, totally not Mad Max 2 / The RoadWarrior, but instead totally deserving of the 'Mad Max 4 : Fury Road' title.

SybilVimes posted:The irony of this being posted the same day as the rebooted Mad Max 2 trailer is released. It's not a reboot. From what I understand it takes place between the 1st and 2nd movies and is written and directed by George Miller, the guy who made the first 3. edit: I stand corrected. Miller himself has said it's a reboot. Bloopsy has a new favorite as of 18:19 on Jul 28, 2014 |
