Same for 'Murica as well. Everybody in your house get sick at the same time? Sucks to be you, there's a limit on how much of the stuff that actually works that you can buy, you get to play the hunger games but with effective drugs. It's bullshit. I mean, seriously what's the percentage of real usage vs meth usage do people buy Sudafed for? I gotta think legitimate more than tips the scale for it to be a non issue. Well, thank god they put limits on it so not as many people will cook meth... Wait..

I am surprisingly not sore for the most part, my hand hurts, especially when I whacked it on the corner of my dresser trying get undressed but I have basically no bruising on my hips which are a bit sore and that's it. Back doesn't hurt anymore or in different places than usual, neck and head are fine.

Time to start looking for a new car, need to figure out how much I can raid out of my 401k and my grandma said she'd toss some cash my way

Unfortunately not, and the refusal of society to simply outlaw it and prosecute anyone who practices it as a section 18 assault (or whatever the US equivalent is for intentional serious bodily harm) means it will continue to happen, being ignored or handwaved with bullshit about how there are "benefits" to it, or it being the choice of the parents.

I don't have much of a sense of humour about it. People who think it's A-ok to cut of part off their child's penis for no reason are barbaric monsters, and need to be stopped.

And part of the mess we are in is the fact that people just don't understand money, how it works, etc. Being debt free is good, but its ok to be in debt as long as you can manage your current debt load, and most people can't manage that. I still don't understand why schools can't have a basic fiance course before you graduate why its ok to use credit cards, but with in reason, and be able to pay the balance off with in a couple of months, etc. Or how to properly calculate a monthly budget with excess reserves, and so on.

But with the abundance of cheap credit, I don't think it will ever go away. If the interest rates ever climb about 8% or 9% these 300,000 homes are going to crash in value.

Man, you live where I live, I'm fully expecting all the $300k shitboxes they threw up in the last 5-10 years out west of town to be derelicts in another 10. So absurdly shoddily built it's amazing, and every single one of them is upside down on their loans.

Funny, I was born 30+ years ago,. as were most of my friends. Guess accepted medical practice is a bit more sophisticated in some places.

But yes, American parents have for years been pushed down that road because of medical advice and it being "normal", and that isn't really their fault. However, the "well I had it and I'm fine" attitude plays a part in letting this farce continue.

If someone chooses to do something themselves, that's fine, but to needlessly do it to a child is morally wrong.

Again, the practice is becoming somewhat less common, but even so, 30+ years ago there were no penis justice warriors bringing the horrendous effects of slightly diminished sensitivity to light. It's not like parents of that age were horribly mutilating their children, it was the accepted medical practice and was SUPPOSED to be better for the person in terms of cleanliness, healthiness, etc.
