My favorite is seeing automatic sprinklers going while it's pouring rain.

This kills me and I see it all the time. The former doesn't bother me as much, I mean, if lawn care is your hobby then you're going to drop some cash on it just like anything else. I have in-ground irrigation, but only run it sparingly.

A local bridge was closed and this entire area is now a giant clusterfuck during commute hours when it didn't used to be, endless traffic, women screaming obscenities at the top of their lungs, horns honking, people raging, good times

Expected a Sopranos reference and you did not disappoint. I thought you would have gone with the Tony/Janice "Ma's House" clip but I like the deep cut with Hugh and Carmela!

Summer '18 & summer '19 I was on cape, terrible bridge traffic. I moved back home for summer '20 when they took down a bridge over a local highway for replacement. Summer '21 I moved north, a truck hit a bridge a mile from me and was shut down for a bit. Now Summer '22 they've taken that bridge down to replace it.

I don't know what's going on but I cannot escape bridge traffic.

Where my kidney stone ants at?

Think I started going through one again the last few weeks. None of the major debilitating pain, just various areas of discomfort and symptoms that made sense. I found some of the flomax I got last time in 2019, and took it 2 days in a row and it seemed to help. Also went ahead and booked an appt. with a urologist. No availability til this Tuesday though.

Then on top of that, I started getting sick earlier this week. Didn't think it was the 'vid because I was just shy of 2 months since I recovered from it. Went from a sore throat to congestion this morning, but I tested negative. Feels like I've been sick every other month so far this year.

Here here!

Passed 1 in the bathroom at a Taylor Swift concert in 2018

Had a second one floating around but my last ultrasound it wasn’t there. See my urologist once a year


Never had pain from them just a feeling of always having to pee, so they put me on flomax and passed it no problem


ToySolidernumbers will be your kidney stone pain buddy

Only the very first time I experienced one in early 2018 did I have the extreme pain that almost caused me to puke, and then had me curled up on the bed, or running to the bathroom swearing I had to drop one, even though I didn't. Then a few days of the urge to pee.

A year later while boarding a plane to Boston I felt discomfort in my stomach and all around that area. Peed a little blood when I landed. Went to Mass General where I peed into a cup straight red. Ultrasound found a stone, and they put me on an IV and then flomax and I passed it back home a few days later. Never was in a ton of pain for those several days though.

This is really causing a ton of traffic in Clifton Park. And it's going to be like that until September!

Got some bad news about my dad's health today and don't feel the medical team is moving fast enough for a serious issue

I'm sorry to hear about that. Good vibes to you and the TS family.

I’m sorry to hear that Ryan. Positive vibes to you and your fam

My chest is pounding right now because I know I have to go into work tomorrow and work with this guy who makes me feel like I'm awful at my job. So I guess I'm irritated at myself for allowing him to get to me like this. Human decency in the work place is just non existent and I feel like his whipping boy.

[BTCS_JTR]

And you know how when one thing really starts to get to you, a bunch of other things start to reach back into your mind for the pile on? Yeah...

I need to find a new place to work

I'm sorry to hear that, man. Are you thinking about moving hospitals/changing doctors?

Is this person your supervisor? That's just awful to have to dread going to work every day.

He's above me, but he's not my supervisor. I don't think he's going to be here much longer, but if he ends up staying I'm going to have to either talk to him and/or my supervisor about it or just find a new place. It's already a shit show there regardless of his attitude

Good for you. That's no way to live.

I can't stand people like that, fucking adult bullies.

Truly isn't. Especially since I moved away for this job to an area where I know no one. I'm sure it'll pass, but I'm just in a very vulnerable state right now

Keeping you and your dad in my daily prayers.

Thanks guys appreciate it!

That it costs $70 to get takeout from any decent mid-tier restaurant now for only my wife, myself, and 3 year old getting a kid item. Used to be able to get a decent takeout meal for $30 just a few years ago.


For example, specialty burger options used to run for $9-$12. Now they are $16-20. Sides extra.

[unccrombie]

I think we need to normalize high restaurant prices. Hot take.

Yea you right

If it means staff is getting a living wage, sure.

Viral tic-tok challenges. I’m not on any social media other than Ants. I was made aware by local news.
Challenge - dig a massive hole on a beach. What’s the fucking point? The beaches by me are sea turtle nesting grounds. Holes have always been a problem and most beaches have a leave no trace policy. But still…what’s the fucking point of digging a 6ft deep hole on a beach.

Went to the beach yesterday and dug a hole, got to maybe 2 feet. Big wave came in and flushed it out very quick.

Anyone watching USA/Haiti?

This Haiti team stays on the turf

Question remains…why did you dig that hole?

Trying to get to China? Unless of course he was there, then trying to get home?
