Inane.

Stupid has never, ever stopped me.

Good girl.

I think it is hard to tell what you would really do in the situation--regardless of what you have been told. I have found that it is in my nature to fight, whether I am armed or not, no matter how poor my chances might seem or how stupid it is to do so. I just can't help it.

What, that he snorted Coke through his nose? Ohhhh. weak. tired. good nite.

Dibs on Sunday.

One title suggestion: The Belle View from the Top.

I have a vein that goes right over the distal knuckle (I don't know what that knuckle is called) in my right ring finger. Every now and then, I do something that busts it open and it swells into that knuckle area. It usually takes a week or two to "drain" and the pressure goes away. The last time I injured it, about two and a half weeks ago, I must have gotten it good. It doesn't seem to be getting better. By now, I figure ice/heat will only do minimal help. Is there anything else I can do to make this heal? The pressure and discomfort in the knuckle has not gotten any better since the third day of the injury. Also, can I get this vein cauterized or something like that? It is really an inconvenience. It it knocked with every belay move and every hand jam. I'd like to avoid this in the future. Suggestions?

You are rockin! I weigh the same, but I have put on muscle. I actually had a guy come up to me the other day just to tell me he thought my arms looked great. I glowed.

Obsessive behavior is obsession behavior. As you yourself said, when a person stops one "addictive" behavior they often go to another. So you do not go to a shrink to get your "addictive food behavior" cured, you go to get some control over obsessive behavior itself.

Oh, and I believe we have more fat people here than anywhere else. And probably more shrinks. Certainly we have more money to waste on food and on shrinks.

I live in America so I know more about this country than any other. Duh.

STFU, clownpuncher! Who gives a rat's ass what someone wrote you in a PM. Well said.

Absolutely. Douching is not healthy. Throws off the good pussy chemistry. Just like ggk.

I know that. But they are rarely used for eating disorders like obsessive eating. They need to be. Are you telling me that in America, where the diet industry is multi multi multi millions of dollars, shrinks haven't decided that charging a hundred bucks an hour to talk to fat people might be a good idea?

I just want to state for the record that it was not me who PMd the mysogynistic douchebag.

Apparently, your injection paralyzed your brain.

For some people, that's like telling a junkie to stop using. Instead of these nasty drugs, the medical folks need to focus on treating addictive personalities. If you read a bit of literature, you'll find that their is no definable "addictive personality". More often, obsessive behaviors are targeted for treatment. And there are plenty of people out there who specialize in just this form of therapy.

I can't believe people still talk like this. The American Cancer Society estimates that 178,480 new cases of invasive breast cancer will be diagnosed in 2007. Invasive is the bad kind--the kind that very often requires surgery and reconstruction. That is a lot of women walking around with the boobs people are so quick to assume are there for ego only. Very often, those boobs are there b/c in our breast obsessed society, being suddenly flat-chested is just one too many things to stress about after fighting for your life. So ease the fuck up.

I can honestly say after having "charged" a bear last week, I would have attacked that fucking thing if it were eating my kid. It is possible that this did, indeed, happen and it just wasn't reported in this very short article. Who knows what trauma that family went through? Just awful. And I am sorry that the bear will be killed for it, but I have to admit I'd want to kill an animal that did that to a family member of mine. It's all very sad.

"And the manufacturer notes that awareness of possible side effects acts as a disincentive to overeat fatty foods." Isn't getting fat enough of a deterrent to slow down on eating fattening food? If not, why would shitting yourself be? People who are four hundred pounds don't strike me as being particularly concerned about what the little people around them think of them.

That is really sad. I am sorry that his parents have to go through this and I hope it was over quickly for the poor kid.

just print out this thread give it a cover and call it good.
