Random Rants 75: This is Bat Country!

[Silurian]

So I listen to Mazzy Star but they give me lipstick adverts in no colours that I would buy my love

Rant: there was no link in the old thread.
Bad moderatrix, bad!

Moderator Action: The correct thread number has been inserted into the title.

 

[Takhisis]

It hasn't. It should read ‘OE’.

How does a toddler that is about 1/5th my size manage to make bigger poops than me? I mean, where is she storing it all?

 

[Gori the Grey]

Or are your poops perhaps undersized?

Rant: the things this rant thread are inviting me to bring into my imagination. Reverse shots? Like, that's a thing?

Depraved even beyond unchristian!

Yes and it is incredibly dangerous.

I had to take a nap today on my office desk, because I was so exhausted. I hope this is only a side effect of the time change, and doesn't indicate that I'm getting sick, because this is like really the week of the year where I cannot have that.

I got my flu shot and ended up fainting. That's a first. I'm not scared of needles or blood. Then while trying to look this up I found some stupid psuedoscience site trying to claim that flu vaccines were dangerous.

Yikes! Were you at the clinic/pharmacy when this happened?

This is why they want people to stay and sit quietly for 15 minutes, so if they do have an adverse reaction, they can be helped immediately and it won't happen where anyone can be hurt.

And yes, those sites claiming flu shots are dangerous are put up by anti-vaxxer zealots who push a lot of pseudoscientific nonsense.

I plan to get mine tonight (am currently waiting for my Walmart order; due to the postal strike they didn't send it via Canada Post, so that means I'm stuck here until it's delivered).

 

[aimeeandbeatles]

At the pharmacy, yes. I was sitting on a bench when it happened. I still feel a little shaky really.

Congratulations, your new name is Dad!

No doubt. Was someone available to help you get home?

 

[aimeeandbeatles]

My mother was getting her flu shot too. Luckily, she didn't faint.

 

[Snerk]

Did the pharmacy offer any explanation?

 

[aimeeandbeatles]

Either my abnormally low blood pressure (orthostatic hypotension - though I was sitting on the bench, so maybe not) or a vasovagal response. I'll bring it up to my neurologist when I see him again.

The thing is, my oldest doesn't even produce poop that big, and she's 7. I'm just baffled as to the physics behind my youngest's poop storage ability.

 

[Takhisis]

Maybe the problem is a lack of storage ability.

 

[Commodore]

Maybe the problem is a lack of storage ability.

But I mean, it has to all be built up in there somewhere before it comes out, right?
