I had this happen to me last year (kidney stone). Holy shitballs on crutches. It was the most pain I have ever been in. And I have had all sorts of injuries and surgeries. This topped it all by far far far. I actually passed out from the pain. I was in the ER with pain managing medication for about 6 hours and then 1 minutes to the next gone. Not like oh it's receding... Gone like it was never there. And I felt 100% fine after. I felt embarrassed because I still had a bunch of doctors looking out for me and I was fine.

Oh and if you are a human with balls, the pain also radiates to this zone and it feels like someone is kicking you in the balls repeatedly with no rest between kicks. It suuuuucks.

And before you say 'feels like labor' naaaah I talked to several moms who have had many kids and they also agree. This is waaay worse.

Chipotles are jalapeños. They are just roasted.

Mate. Trusting a company not to shaft you when you have no alternatives is never a good idea. It is actually really bad.

Companies do not act towards the benefit of the customer. It is always towards a better bottom line, and those decisions many times do not have your best interest at heart. If you have no choices, the companies have no incentive to make your experience any better. (see Internet Explorer). Competition is always a good thing. It forces companies to be better. The key word there is forces because they will not do it on their own.

You cannot tell me that dude (duddette?) doesn't have an eating disorder. That looks sickly and horrible.

Every single person I know or meet uses WhatsApp. About 90% of the businesses I interact with use WhatsApp Businesses. My whole family uses WhatsApp.

Moving to another system is going to take a lot a lot of work.

Say it with me.... M O N O P O L Y

Just so you guys know, Mexico did away with DST last year. It's been great not changing the clock twice a year.

Come on US... Stop dragging your feet.

I did not know what a lap pool was. This is a lap pool.

"Microsoft’s blog adds caveats, such as that Excel avoids the conversion by saving the data as text, which means the data may not work for calculations later. There’s also a known issue where you can’t disable the conversions when running macros. "

This sounds very half assed...

These things behave really strangely as compared to other bugs. I found one on my yard the other day and as I walked by, I saw it was following me with its head. I went back and forth to make sure I wasn't imagining it. Nope it was intensely looking at me. So I thought... Perhaps it's just assessing a predator and keeping it in sight is a useful survival instinct. Then the mofo jumped at my face. Calculated jump and attack. I grabbed it and put it in a turned over glass and it was pissed at me and continued to stare me down. I had some friends over and they looked into the glass too but nah thing wasn't looking at them. It was looking at me and it looked pissed. I fed her a moth that was flying around by putting it inside the glass with it thinking... Its not going to attack the moth, mantis is probably terrified. Not a time to eat. So I thought. Damn thing proceeded to eat the head of the moth while it kept looking at me in disdain. I had to let the thing go. It was too sentient to be squashed as a bug. So I freed it later that night and made sure I closed the garden door behind me. I don't want that thing strangling me in my sleep.

In this thread: People who do not grasp the intention of the question and focus on the semantics of a foreign lenguage being translated as best as possible for OP.

For this context alone: BATH = SHOWER

For all other times, yes they do mean different things.

I think this man alone has done more damage to society than anyone else in modern history. I am astounded on why this has been allowed for so long.
