Dralun posted:Is this dispute mostly taken care of and just now waiting for some VA billing clerks to pull their heads out their asses to remove the charge? If not, I might be able to help by telling you what to specifically ask for to prove she wasn't there as I've helped some of my patients in the the past with similar stupidity. I called and asked about it. Apparently this is the case. But honestly, if they don't fix it, what are they going to do? Ruin her credit? If push comes to shove I'll tell them that she's dead, it's their fault, and I'm not paying a loving cent.

everyone who works for the DOD that has anything to do with anything that can be described as "customer service" be it finance or medical or whatever has, in my experience, universally been gigantic loving shitassed cunts who deserve to be treated terribly any time they have any sort of minor inconvenience just so they know how utterly useless wastes of x,y,z space on God's creation they are It makes me sick just thinking about anyone who has the job of "helping people get things they desperately need done" and that stupid loving attitude they have where they don't care at all about their job or the people they are working for. It's not even like a particular event that made me hate them, it's all the little things combined down to that stupid loving disinterested look they give you when you ask for their help with something. gently caress them, gently caress the DOD, gently caress the Army, just lol if you are still in.

20 bucks is such a small amount if you have a decent job that why not throw some money at powerball. Pot is over a billion now. Sure the odds are retarded but it's fun to dream. If you're in a situation where 20 dollars is a lot of money then you're probably still enlisted and making payments on your mustang at 20% interest.

Everyone I know has at least partial hearing loss, some with full hearing loss in at least one ear. This isn't even from being around gunfire or explosions.

I don't know, when you win the lottery lots of weird poo poo happens and people start trying to blackmail you and stuff. It's weird. There are lots of ~internet stories~ about it, so big grain of salt. But you have to take up the equivalent of witness protection because people start messing with your life for a little taste. To be clear, I still want to win.

I had some weird ear infection thing that gave me tinnitus for a few days. If I had to live with that I think it would be damaging to my sanity. No idea how you tolerate it but I'm so, so glad it made me into "that guy" about wearing ear plugs in the back of a truck if it got too loud or every time I went on the flight line. I know of at least a few idiots I worked with that have got to be hosed. Get done on the range with no plugs, then blast their music in their 20% APR heap of poo poo on the way to work. Got to work with a shredder for awhile that took serious ear protection because it was a shredder for hard drives. Just drop a whole hard drive in and little pieces come out. No ear plugs for the one winner I worked with. Wouldn't be in the least surprised to hear he's learning sign language now.

The brain is actually really good at tuning things out. The same way that something you see all the time can disappear from your vision or how you get used to smells, a constant sound gets tuned out by your brain. Except for when some jerkbag says "tinnitus" on the internet and then it all comes back.

Yeah, after a while it becomes the new normal and you don't notice it, until you do, and then it's all you can think about. Also when it comes on, if I'm lucky, I can do the diver pressure-equalize trick (hold your nose shut and blow air into your eustachian tubes) and sometimes that works to head it off.

A lot of that probably has to do with the type of people who typically win the lottery...by and large on the lower end of the socio-economic ladder, so when they come into a bunch of money there's the fact that their entire goddamned extended family down to third cousins comes out of the woodwork as well as the fact that they typically make an easier mark for con men since they tend to be less educated.

I'd put my kid through college, pay off my mom's house, a couple of friends' houses, and buy a fuckton of beachfront and mountainside land. And cars. Lots of cars. Then in the second year of the annuity... Edit: I'm not going to drive 50 or 60 miles to the nearest powerball gas station, but if I'm over there, I'll drop a $20 or buy scratchers or something.

Only 6 states allow you to win the lottery anonymously, so whoever whens the 1.3 billion is hosed.
