OB/GYN Discussion Thread in Women's Health ·
Austin Lopez4 said:Regarding Dr. Grujic-Koracin—who’s moved into private practice over on Star Street now—honestly, I think it’s an absolute disaster.

When she first opened up, she was quite pleasant enough, but everything just soured after that. She’s constantly having these "quiet" little spats with her nurse—it’s clearly a power struggle—and the whole atmosphere is just BLEAK. The nurse tries to take charge, acting like she knows everything and jumping to diagnoses before the doctor even speaks, and then the doctor, feeling insulted, talks down to her... treating her like she’s some dim-witted, incompetent subordinate... it's just awful.

I went there last, and it will certainly be my last.
...

It doesn't help that she speaks French and acts like we're all just uncultured peasants while she fancies herself so much more sophisticated... truly dreadful. 👎 👎 👎

Oh, I agree; I visited her once myself, and never again... it was nothing short of a nightmare. I’ve since switched to Dr. Doka at the local community clinic, and he is actually a great guy. He’s a bit older and has a bit of a cheeky sense of humor, but he’s a decent man... and I’m perfectly satisfied with him so far.
Metallica & Lenny Kravitz in Music ·
banderas said:By the way, if I had to choose between buying tickets for both and was short on cash, I’d much rather see Lenny than Metallica.

And for what reason might one feel that way?
Metallica & Lenny Kravitz in Music ·
Lisa Wilson49 said:I’m definitely hitting up Lenny Kravitz, but as for Metallica, it really depends on my bank account; I've got Santana lined up for July, and I'd rather not go completely broke.

As they say in the movies: :2up: (Why? JUST WHY?)

Well, I am absolutely going to see Santana—that's a non-negotiable. It's just that having both Lenny and Metallica scheduled in the exact same month is quite the predicament...

Why, oh why... 😢
Abortion discussion in Women's Health ·
placidjackal97 said:regarding the right for a woman to have access—legally and under humane conditions—to an abortion,

I could never bring myself to do it personally, regardless of whether I were single or if the father were involved, but having that choice remains essential.

I don't have much to add; I simply find myself in complete agreement with her.

If my bank account allows it, I’m definitely hitting up both Lenny Kravitz and Metallica...

Maybe we could actually organize a little meetup for the forum crowd? It would be nice to actually see one another, rather than just being a million strangers passing by in the crowd without a single familiar face in sight...
Gum addiction help? in Health ·
nimbleskipper17 said:My name is nimbleskipper17, and I am a total gum addict.

Fortunately, I don't go through packs too quickly because I have this habit of chewing just half a piece at a time, then tucking the other half back into the wrapper (and no, I’m not biting them—I just break them in half). It’s the only way I can manage without my jaw aching from chewing a full piece. I've been loyal to Orbit White for years now.

I’d really love to kick this habit because, let’s be honest, I chew like a cow, and it isn't exactly a pretty sight. But I have this nagging fear that if I stop, I’ll just pick up cigarettes again. Or start biting my nails even harder. Or, heaven forbid, come up with something even worse to do with my hands.

Well, welcome to the club... You’ve definitely found the right crowd... We can't exactly offer any solutions, since we're all just as lost as you are, but we're more than happy to share a piece of gum with you along the way... 😁 😉

It’s a bit more comforting now that I see we aren't alone in this...

At this rate, we might just have enough people to start our own SEC (Secret Enthusiasts of Chewing gum)... 😁 😉

I mostly stick to white Orbit... It’s easily my favorite, so I always have some on me. Aside from that, I can't live without my Labelle, though it doesn't give me any trouble—unlike this gum, which is actually starting to make my jaw ache.

I tried to go a few hours without chewing today, but I ended up just mindlessly snacking on chocolate, sipping water, and feeling completely on edge...
In the end, I gave in, ran down to the local 7-Eleven, and grabbed some more. So, yeah, I'm back to chewing. 😍

Well, my jaw actually started aching yesterday, which was my cue to finally call it quits...

Of course you didn't notice, while I was over here discreetly chewing away... 😉
Gum addiction help? in Health ·
Honestly, I’ve developed a total dependency on gum. Like, a serious one. Does anyone have any advice on how to break the habit?
I tried switching over to hard candy, but then I just end up with a constant sweet taste in my mouth, which doesn't really solve anything...
Sunday shifts? in Economy ·
I don't typically work on Sundays, and usually not even Saturdays, yet I find myself clocking overtime every single day without seeing a dime extra for it... No one ever stops to ask if that's actually okay or if I’m even happy about it. It’s not just those folks stuck working on the weekend who are getting the short end of the stick; the entire dynamic between employer and employee in this country is fundamentally broken.
Romance in movies is totally played out! in Movies ·
While I’m certainly a fan of romance and those classic romantic comedies, I have to admit you've hit the nail on the head... It feels incredibly forced when a gritty horror flick or a high-stakes action thriller tries to squeeze in a little love story; it just ends up feeling cheesy and hollow. 🙄
Scary Movie 3 in Movies ·
It features a handful of solid jokes, a touch of vulgarity, some morbidity, and perhaps a slight lack of taste, though everything is quite well-packaged. If you enjoyed the first two installments, you'll likely appreciate this third one. If not, there's really no reason to bother watching it.
