@egrishom@Spawn_03 I put my finger on a hot iron once and my mom literally said “Well, you won’t try that again, will you.” as I stood there screaming. Fortunately my impulse control has improved in adulthood.
@EnjoyLife3498 @constans Yup! Oh, and my husband and I learned a hard lesson when he went on his own to pick up a rental on vacation. The next day and many miles away from the rental place I got in to drive and was like “Nope.” He drove the remaining 10 days of our trip.
@withdiamonds1@taybeautifulll When I broke my arm I got sent home with a script for, like 5 Oxy after a loooong lecture about the dangers of addiction. Dr. Dude. You have seen my X-ray, yes?? My humerus is SPLINTERED into THREE PIECES. Skip the fucking lecture.
@happyhappyhenri@danni_ox_ I was at Thunder Hole at Acadia National Park a couple summers ago, and there was a guy yelling for his buddy Alan. After he had bellowed “ALAN!” Several times, another guy started yelling “STEVE!!!” I laughed so hard I almost fell into the sea.
@MKeenerWrites Gen X here, and I just now learned that a Google doc is not a Word doc stored on a Google drive…I’ve been using computers for word processing since 1987 but apparently I need to sign up for the “Computers for Olds” class at the library. :/
@WillieHandler Listen, I know some people are flaky. But there should be some sort of option in medical scheduling software that lets the office opt a patient out of repeated reminders if they have a proven pattern of reliability. Don’t bug the crap out of me because other people are messy.
@MogulMargo@WillieHandler I had to review and sign a No-Show Policy at my Cancer Center. I asked the receptionist who the hell these people were who were not showing for ONCOLOGY visits?!?? I mean, they’re kind of important, WTF??
