Yeah, they put me under after I got an infected wisdom tooth, and they were just gonna pull all of them, and it turned out I have it. Woke the next morning with my mother and sister in my room looking very concerned.

And since Shands is a teaching hospital, I had all these baby docs (and a few older docs who hadn't seen it) wandering by to look at my chart and make thoughtful sounds.

I don't get poo poo like this. Why does it need to be online? It squeezes juice. I'm into laser cutting and there's this fancy new home laser cutter that came out but it's the same poo poo, it's over-priced for what you get and it requires and constant internet connection. Instead of just loading a file directly into the machine you have to go to their website, upload your file, and then have the company send your file to your machine. Why the gently caress does anyone buy poo poo like this and why do companies get such hardons for arrangements like that? It seems like way more overhead for them. Just give people the software to run your machine and no you don't need to deal with any wifi poo poo.

Every tech-bro dream of the future, no matter how grand or dressed up, basically boils down to every aspect of your life run on some sort of subscription service.

That's Chris "Crybaby" Cantwell, the Neo-Nazi who was all proud of his beliefs in a Vice documentary filmed at Charlottesville, but posted a youtube of himself crying because he was afraid to get arrested afterwards. He's in jail now :allears:

It gets even better.

Highlights from the article:

  • his lawyer, Elmer Woodward (Cantwell's fourth choice, after three other attorneys turned him down) appears to be a complete nutjob
  • the lawyer "appeared in court wearing an early-1800s-style red waistcoat with gold buttons, bowtie, white muttonchop whiskers, black velcro shoes, and a a 1910s-style straw boater hat."
  • Woodard previously attempted to defend a client accused of sexual assault by a 15-year-old girl by claiming that the man’s sleepwalking caused him to rape her
  • "Woodard objected, claiming that videos of his own client speaking were hearsay evidence."

And it goes on ... do yourself a favour and read the article, that little nazi poo poo's a gift that keeps on giving.

At the nursing home where my mum works they were checking in a dementia patient who was being committed by his family against his will.

He grabbed a fire extinguisher off the wall and jumped into cover behind a couch, popping up only to blast c02 into the face of any nurse who got within 10 feet.

As long as you don't have a fever you will(probably) be fine, your just passing a jagged rock out of your kidney into your bladder. I hope for your sake it breaks up by then, passing it out the urethra is a whole other adventure.

You are a lucky fucker, we did a drill for this in my department the other day. The amount of reversal drugs they have to pump into you in a short time frame boggles the mind. There is several someones who's whole task is to stand there and mix giant syringes of drugs, you need several people because they will be mixing for 15 to 20 minutes as fast as they can. Meanwhile everyone else tries to prevent you from cooking yourself to death.

IIRC, he sold a controlling share to an investor who then promptly forced him out of the company, he already got paid and got out, not surprising that he'd be partying.

Crazily, this has a basis in fact with sexsomnia

quote:

In extreme cases, sexsomnia has been alleged, and accepted, as at least a part of the cause of sexual assault, including rape.

"A man who was convicted of raping an underage girl after a DNA test showed he was the father of her unborn child has been cleared by an appeals court – because he was asleep at the time."

So I guess Woodward was hoping to get his client off on the same sort of thing. I have to hope that it is very hard to prove and you'd need a bunch of evidence to back it up. No idea what that might be.

I had a 7mm kidney stone about a decade or so ago and I was laid out on pain pills for about a month till that fucker passed. Lithotripsy basically just sort of made a small dent in the fucker and then I had to pass it which sucked massive amounts.

Went in for xrays for a back problem a couple weeks back, and discovered there's another one there. Bigger than the last one. It's like a sequel to the worst time in my life.

Got an appt in a few weeks to see if it's gonna move or if it's just gonna sit there, since I've had nil pain or anything from it.

I guess the schaden is that I discovered this about 6 weeks? or so after I decided no more sodas and I'm gonna eat and drink healthy and whatnot.

Well, as a ex-polysom tech, I would think a proper sleep study, where the EEG array shows him ACTUALLY asleep as he is trying to hump random objects in the area might be a good place to start...
