All Hallows Eve- TET or Treat!

[Idzequitch]

Whippersnappers these days, thinkin' they're entitled to everything! Why when I was a lad we didn't look at nuttin' without askin' permission first. And if we did, Ol' Pa would throw molten lava in my eyes! It was a better time back then.

Lava! LUXURY. We were scalded with the leftover water used for boiling cabbages, and we were grateful for it.

And you had to carry said cabbage water uphill both ways no doubt.

River floodplain in multiple mountain range basin living. We knew some convenience.

Rampant trapped airborne disease and apocalyptic flooding as a result, of course. Can't have it too easy, you'll go soft like the youth of today.

Does anyone else remember when they invented the wheel?

Murray did a great job with that.

He sure did, like when Ug discovered fire.

I was really hoping tnetennba was a real word...

I woke up this morning to see Texas covered in white again, the 2nd time in 2 months.
The fuck?

I understand medicine tastes bad because if anybody starts accidentally drinking it it's supposed to make them stop and spit it out, but damn, I want better tasting medicine.

[Auremena]

Is there such thing as a three/four sided coin, cause genius and madness may be different sides of the same coin (I'll lump mental health issues in with madness) but where are loneliness, substance use, etc?

Agreed.

Two arctic blasts fueled by cold air from the North Pole/Alaska and a consistent dipping jet stream pattern = why the Midwest/South has been so fucking cold and why it's been so warm constantly where I am.

Have fun getting speedy off a whole bottle of good tasting liquid sudafed.
That's why they make it bad. Doesn't stop the determined. Reminds me of poor (often homeless) Russian alcoholics who drink crappy cologne cause it's cheaper than vodka.
Come to think about it, I've not had liquid meds in ages, come to think about it. Not even like Nyquil. used a bit of sudafed and a lot of rest to get through that flu/cold/whatever it was around new year's.

The youth of today is not as soft as you think. Millennials are currently killing everything!

What I've seen here the last month, Mama Natura is just on a marathon bender and is leaving it to us to deal with it. From near-0F temps with windchills that put it way under to a 1.5-2 foot snowstorm to a summer rainstorm where I could walk to the pub in flats and just my leather jacket, no coat, in 1 week.
Then the day after it's freezing again.
Yeah I think she's just like taking whatever's in front of her in a stupor of intoxication.

It's been 50s and sunny everyday where I'm at (and 70s and sunny everyday in my other place of residence, so to speak), so I'm not complaining a ton. Still wish we had more powder for skiing here in Flagstaff.

Whatever I got is some antibiotic that's an alternative to Penicillin since I'm allergic to Penicillin.

I've got to take it for three days and hope to goodness that the head pain is no more. The guy at the Minute Clinic said that the inside of my right ear looks red and bulging while my left ear looks normal.

Did they do well against that other sports team you're not a fan of?

What happens when you take penicillin? I ask because I happen to be deathly allergic to it.

Yep.

A friend of mine went to one of the university basketball games last night and her very important question on Snap Chat was "When are they going to start singing 'Getcha Head in the Game'?"

They found out I was allergic to it when I was an infant. Apparently it was given to me for something then and I had to be rushed to the hospital where they determined I'm allergic to Penicillin.

So personally I don't know what happens when I take penicillin because I was not old enough to have a memory of the experience of the reaction. Though I probably wouldn't want that memory.

They gave you a liquid and not a pill? And anything to drop in the ear?

Yeah, liquid not a pill. And no, nothing to drop in the ear. The guy said if this doesn't help after the three days to go see a primary care doctor instead.

Here they would give you an oral antibiotic, and a steroid drop for the ear for the swelling. Good luck those while not fatal are no fun at all.

Gah. Hate being the needy one. I wanna be the one complaining about the needy ones.

Clearly these situations need to be scripted better.
