You can actually schedule it so that you simply pull an all-nighter while taking the laxatives. That way you'll be cleared out by the time of the colonoscopy but only really just spend 1 day dealing with the colonoscopy prep and proced

You just pass out on the table and wake up in a bed something like 40 minutes later. I could remember everything up to feeling the effects of the anesthetic and beginning to pass out, but nothing thereafter. I also received lidocaine, and f

>month long camping retreat Not dissing your idea, which is accurate, but I can't not-find it funny to then remark that most Americans couldn't even take a 2 week vacation without cheating with sick days.

I think additionally, many people feel there are very real factors skewing the rate of car crashes compared to what it'd be from only "good" drivers with how our bar for driver's licenses in America is so pitifully low

For whatever it's worth, some places currently disallow pay at the pump if you're refuelling late at night, at least for diesel (I didn't check for gasoline). I've encountered it before while driving across the US even j

I think what he's saying is far more comparable to: "If you choose to live on an obscure island or corner of alaska unreachable by land, should the government be obligated to keep a doctor living and working nearby you?" To w

Remove Swerway and this is just insane enough that I get the feeling this will really happen. Rip Van Winkle sleeps in a coma for 80 years, wakes up revived in Swerway

What's he supposed to say? "Sweetie, you might maybe be possibly wrong maybe. I might be wrong too but i think it could be saying..." He didn't attack you or act abrasive. You are right that "I think" is not su

I believe what is "civilian" is something that can become murky, and by justifiable I primarily just mean "logically coherent and able to be justified by a possibly different but not insane ideology" It's obviously

While I agree to an extent, this begs an obvious question: How far do we take this line of thinking? Is an attack like 9/11 justified since even the twin towers were used by the US government indirectly, owing to nearly everyone within

Good point, the system would work just as well if it was something like: w36:2 But it wouldn't cause nearly as much confusion or decimal place issues relating to improper automation.

Wow that's insane. Any examples in particular? I knew about some plant seeds that if eaten raw have toxins like canavanine that cause malformed proteins but wouldn't be obvious at first or (afaik) if you still overwhelmingly had e

I just want to share that a similar ER visit in the US for a minor injury basically isn't possible / reasonable. If your injury is minor and you're uninsured, you're going to be dumping potentially thousands of dollars j

What type of art can exist for someone who's blind, deaf, unable to taste or smell, and quadriplegic? (Edit: additionally, does this exclude music as a whole?) Those with more than one disability don't have the right to enjoy art?

You're calling them "total rats", yet you say that you haven't read the article and only glanced at it. How is that a basis for making such a bold claim? To quote you further, you claimed they were "snitching"
