My one cat likes to eat paint chips. It’s a battle to prevent him from doing so. He also likes fries and will steal them from my plate. One of my other cats likes taco meat and my third cat is crazy about cheese.
I was told a couple of weeks ago that my workplace wants to promote me. Said promotion won’t happen until next year as that’s when the position will open up due to a retirement, but it came out of nowhere and it gives me something to look forward to.
Snakes on a Plane. It came out when I was in college, and my college had a movie night at the local cinema, so it was a bunch of college students cheering during the movie, especially at the famous line.
For me, it’s jingle all the way. It’s got everything. A drunk reindeer. A terrorist mailman. Arnold punching a deer. Arnold punching Sinbad. Arnold punching Santa. Arnold in general....
For example, I 3d printed a box over my outlet to protect my cables from my bed pushing against it. In addition, my cables never fall to the floor so they’re much easier to grab.
Today I spoke to a coworker who had bad experiences with doctors and was seeking recommendations for a new one, then other coworkers chimed in, and so I decided to ask you guys as well. Well, not for a doctor recommendation, but about your bad experienced with doctors?...
I had an issue where food would get stuck while eating. It wasn’t chocking, as I was still able to breathe. It was more like the food would slowly make its way to my stomach and sometimes it would come back up. I told my doctor at the time, but he dismissed it as me eating too fast. So I tried to eat slower and just dealt with it. Several years pass and I got married and moved away and thus ended up with a new doctor. My wife asked me to ask the new doctor about my condition, and I told her that he would probably dismiss it, which is what ended up happening. That doctor ended up leaving the practice (which I wasn’t too upset about) and I ended up with a new doctor. The new doctor seemed more receptive to what I had to say, but I was reluctant to tell her about it since I’ve had two doctors dismiss me already. My wife again asked me to ask the new doctor about it, and this time I was taken seriously. The doctor set me up with a specialist and I had a procedure done that pretty much fixed my problem and now I can eat without having my food get stuck.
That’s what was happening. It didn’t happen all the time, but it was still annoying when it happened. Certain foods seemed to be worse than others. The procedure I had basically widen the esophagus, making it easier for the food to go down.
Is it shallow, or petty, to decide based on name alone? Yeah, pretty much, but there’s probably something, a product or service or site, that the name has made you gloss right over it or jump to it ASAP....
