Fermented Tinal posted:A silicone wedding ring sounds kinda strange. Like wouldn't it get all torn to hell and be not unlike just using a rubber band? I have a pack of them (they're so loving cheap why not lol) that I throw on sometimes if I'm going to be on my feet and running around all day, because my fingers swell up a bit and it makes my regular ring uncomfortable. (Exacerbated by the weight I've gained over the past few years, I'm sure) And no, it's not entirely unlike a rubber band, except a bit less give and actually sized to your finger. I suppose I could put it on while doing yardwork and poo poo, but why?

I got some really bad news today. I was craving Five Guys, which I hadn't had in months, so I drove all the way down there for lunch. It's gone.

Mine was just stainless steel after losing the titanium one somehow after leaving work (skinny jeans i guess it popped off in parking lot). I also threw mine in the ocean. Felt good.

I heard a flapping noise sort of like a flat tire so I pulled over and pulled this blade out of the tread. It was cutting side in the tread and I pulled over within 50 feet of hearing it so hopefully I avoided a leak but probably not.

short commutes are more bitchener for sure. I have three bands because they are cheap. First "real" once is tungsten/white gold. Others are cheap titanium and one ceramic. The ceramic one is nice and lightweight. I kind of want silicone ones though because having my finger de-gloved or unsheathed or whatever the term is sounds The ring comes off whenever I am doing something laborious.

Darchangel posted:Titanium, at least the one I have, scratches easily, which surprised the heck out of me. I’m wearing tungsten carbide now, but thinking about a silicone one.

my ring is platinum and I take it off if I'm going to do anything manual. It scratches fairly easily but the nicks and dings are all part of the character. Up side it it probably won't ever break. I cannot stand watching people play sports in jewelry, it's only going to end in some sort of horror catastrophe like has already been mentioned a few times. Work Xmas party is tonight. Haven't done anything work-related all day except talk about what we're doing for the pre-game. fridge corn posted:Been a month at the new job and it's still awesome Nice!

My ring is simple steel. WTF are you guys doing with expensive wedding rings? *When* we next get a dog its going to be named Stormfather, just so we can call him Stormy while being a Sanderson reference. Or if its a bitch Sylphrena.

I'm on ring number two, mostly because my wife was tired of how scratched up my plain gold band was. So now it's a turned stainless band with a small strip of inlaid silver. Simple, still relatively inexpensive, and it's been resilient as gently caress.

Yeah my titanium one was at most 50 bucks. I know because the first one was too loose and I didn't feel bad buying another.

I just this week lost my wedding band somewhere. Cold dry hands don't provide a lot of friction and I didn't even feel it slip off, only noticed later when I went to wash my hands that it was missing and now my ring finger feels weird. It was just a cheap tungsten carbide band but now I have to replace it dammit.

The Royal Nonesuch posted:Lmao. How often do you see priapisms? Are they usually due to Viagra? Rarely, but a doc was injecting one yesterday as I came in to work. Usually with us they're pharmacologic (trazodone is common, but every once in a while a guy'll take a bunch of Viagra). Jefferson sees a bunch of sickle cell patients, though, so that's probably the main etiology there. If Sudafed, IM terbutaline, or aspiration doesn't work, you stick a butterfly in the side to irrigate with phenylephrine. The last time I had to do that, the pharmacist repeatedly asked me what I was ordering and then asked me to spell it. That doesn't leave you feeling very confident about what you are planning to inject into the dong in front of you. Regarding wedding rings, my friend proposed on the slope of a volcano in Hawaii. When they got divorced, I recommended that he return there to throw the ring into the lava so that her reign of evil could end. I don't think that he ever got around to that.
