Does anyone here take anything like Advil or similar stuff alongside their meds? Like, is it actually okay to mix them?

Roger Vaughn2 said:Does anyone have a recommendation for denim that won't lose its shape after just a few hours of wear? I have a few pairs that look absolutely perfect right after they come out of the laundry, but once I've been walking around in them for a little while, they stretch out completely and look terrible. Naturally, I am looking for something at a reasonable price point.😁

I swear, I saw people wearing stuff exactly like that at Target last year—it was everywhere. $23 😁Honestly, I don't even know—do they actually have them now? Or is it just one of those things where everyone talks about it like it’s a done deal when it really isn't? Who knows.

Word on the street is that those $70 H&M pieces are just as trash—honestly, why do we even bother?

Her only real flaw is that they let the color bleed. I haven't even taken them out for a spin yet—fingers crossed they don't start acting up once I actually get them out on the road.

Linda Robinson49 said:Honestly, it’s kind of pathetic being stuck in a room full of strangers—not that I'm exactly the social butterfly type, anyway. I’ve always been one of those people who just can't stop overthinking everything, constantly stressing out and analyzing every little detail. And even now? My brain is already spiraling, wondering if everyone in the room is judging me or staring at me like I’m some kind of freak. Is it just me, or is this whole thing just awkward? 😬 😵 Honestly? I’d be at my absolute happiest if I could just get some damn peace and quiet and be left alone out there. 😁🎉

It’s honestly like you’re on your own there—I mean, don't get me wrong, there are plenty of people around, but let's be real, nobody is actually going to come over to chat unless you practically beg for help or if you're just standing there staring at a machine that someone else is hogging. It sounds weird to say, but the gym is pretty much a social desert. Most of those people are just there to grind through their sets and nothing else—total tunnel vision, you know? 🙂

And yeah, seriously—you’re gonna feel incredible. Just give it a shot.

I dealt with being underweight for the longest time—like, all through my early teens. I still remember my school nurse telling me I practically needed to be eating two lunches a day just to keep up
Then, around 15, things shifted and I started gaining curves, though looking back at old photos, I was actually still pretty thin even though I’d put on about 20 pounds or so😲
After that, the weight just kept creeping up until I hit a "normal" weight range. Now? Now I have to be incredibly careful about what I eat because I ended up dealing with some hormonal imbalances along the way—which is probably why the weight gain happened in the first place, right?
So, if I were you, I’d definitely go get your hormone levels checked out—especially your thyroid

rowdytinker3 said:All these parades are just plain old hype and a joke. There were only four celebrations that actually made sense—none of this artificially pumped-up nonsense... Goran, Janica, the '98 national team, and that gold in Portugal back in '03.
The rest? Honestly, it’s pathetic. 🤦
And this right here is the peak—a parade for a bronze medal! 🙏

I'm with you—I highly doubt other countries throw massive parades for bronze medals.

Come on, the only other one that felt legitimate was the celebration after Athens 2004.

George Chavez8 said:Alilović actually had some killer tournaments leading up to the semifinals, unfortunately. But it’s the same old story—he and Čupić just fall apart during the big games, year after year. Those tiny margins have cost us so many times. And it’s not a fluke. Look at today—the Americans were down by 2 and we had the man advantage, Steve makes the save, and immediately we score on the power play plus they get a penalty... if it hadn't been -1, who knows what would've happened..

Back when we were actually winning gold, we had guys like Šol and Losert who knew how to shut things down when it mattered... people tend to forget that pretty quickly.

This whole nightmare against the French started back in that cursed 2007 tournament. We were playing the best handball in the history of the sport—we were insanely good—but it only took one old lion, Omeyer, to absolutely wreck our entire generation and create this permanent mental block. And don't even get me started on Červar, that clown, whom Onesta treats like some kind of life guru. Honestly, all that French "dominance" wouldn't even be possible without Omeyer.

I’m convinced we would’ve walked away with a couple of golds if we just had a better goalie—even if the roster was 20-30 percent weaker than what we had. In a sport like this, the goalie is everything.

The other issue is Červar, who can't seem to figure anything out besides his go-to tactic: "give the ball to Balić whenever things go south." As for Goluža? Don't even get me started.

One elite goalie and one coach with actual authority and brains, and we could have avoided this tragedy. Since 2004, we haven't seen a single gold medal despite having players this talented.

This new coach basically told me everything I need to know: once the semifinals start with Alilović and Čupič, we're done. The guy is a total moron—a nice guy, sure, but a moron.

I’m with this guy. Ever since 2007, we’ve been losing to them in the high-stakes matchups; we only ever beat them in relatively unimportant 🕺

Betty Anderson65 said:Yeah, yeah, yeeeessss! Finally—we actually know what it feels like to have a real goalkeeper in net 👏
I feel for Mirko, I really do, but let’s be real—we clearly have way better options than him right now 😁

It honestly sucks. I mean, if we were actually a lot worse than the Spanish, maybe I wouldn't be so annoyed, but a game like that? We should've walked away with a win if Steve was the one guarding the goal... It's such a shame. After that performance against the Poles, these guys deserved at least a silver medal 🍿

We probably would've beaten them, but there's no way we're taking down the Germans—we just don't have the playbook to crack a defense like theirs. Maybe we would've lost by a smaller margin to Spain, though, since our long-range shooting is definitely more lethal than theirs

Alilović and Ćupić deserve to hang up their jerseys for the national team and call it a day ☕

We’ve actually got a shot at this—we headed into the locker room with a pretty decent lead

We actually got some help from others, so the prophecy finally came true 😂 😂

Oh man, Babić—if you’d just given Steve a look, maybe those Spaniards would've walked away with the gold instead

Whatever, though. Huge congrats on pulling off that bronze medal out of nowhere 👍

If even the Lady won't take a side right now, we're truly lost☕

Allen looks completely unmotivated to me—honestly, if they actually put him in (which they probably will after all those comments he made about leaving the national team), then we are absolutely screwed. It’s pretty damn obvious, isn't it?

Babić and his pre-game trash talk

Look, it’s the same old story—exhaustion, terrible rotation, and then you've got rookies getting gassed because they lack experience, which just leads right back to being exhausted again. 🥱 🥱

Man, this is going to be a brutal game. I honestly don’t even know where our heads are at—it's hard to stay motivated when we haven't even stepped foot in a championship game since way back in 2010. It makes you wonder if we'll ever see another one, especially since this was supposed to be our golden ticket now that the French and Danish teams aren't even in the mix.

I mean, maybe losing that last one will light a fire under us? If we end up getting knocked around by the Norwegians again, I swear the International Organization is going to be breathing down our necks even harder than usual.

I mean, how were we ever supposed to expect anything when they have Jesus on their roster? 🤣

Jokes aside, we just weren't showing up yesterday. Aguinagalde and that Jesus Garcia guy absolutely tore us apart. Honestly, if our goalies play with such a pathetic save percentage, we wouldn't even win some low-tier local tournament.

I knew we were cooked the second they pulled ahead 8-1. We just aren't built like the Americans or the French—we don't have that mental toughness to claw back from a deficit like that or actually flip the script. Our headspace just isn't there.

And all this whining about Babb being "exhausted"... 🙄 then how on earth are we going to handle the UN qualifiers that happen right around the Champions League finals? 🙂

Patrick Newman5 said:We’ll get through this part, and then I’m rooting for the Norwegians in the finals because we can beat them any day of the week!

Yeah, sure, but here’s the thing—the Norwegians aren't even going to see a final. It's a massive stretch to think they take down the Germans, and honestly? Even if it stays close, the refs will probably just bend over backward for Germany anyway.

Let’s be real here—handball is huge in Germany. Bundesliga games and Champions League matches are sold out instantly. But in Norway? Nothing touches cross-country skiing. Seriously, even their world-class skiers and jumpers get sidelined by the skiing craze. After that big win against the Frenchmen, I hopped onto their sports portal and what was the lead story? Some random, insignificant victory in a skiing race! Handball was tucked away in some tiny little corner of the site. 🙄
Sure, the women have been sitting on the throne for years, but let's face it—women's handball doesn't get half the eyeballs that the men's game gets, and the sponsors aren't circling it nearly as much.
So, yeah, everyone knows where the real money is going to be made in a potential final—it’s all about whoever walks away with the title and the massive profit that comes with it.

Besides, this article pretty much spells it all out for you.

We’re gonna take them down—it might be close, but honestly? I wasn't impressed by their play at all. They basically lucked their way into the semifinals if you ask me. But hey, what does it matter? I’m already bracing myself for the inevitable heartbreak when we lose the championship to Germany anyway. 🙄

Mark White11 said:And Mr. Robot 😵

It's a total joke—Narcos got completely robbed 😵

Lately, this thing keeps popping up on me constantly—even right now while it’s not even happening! And don't even get me started on how freaking slow Reddit is lately... seriously, it's painful.
And before anyone tries to blame my connection, save it. I'm running the fastest internet money can buy right now, so it's definitely not a bandwidth issue.

Here we go again—another massive cover-up by the mainstream media. Honestly, I can't help but wonder, how much longer is this actually going to last? 🙄

Hey there, I’ve got a few questions (and I'm kind of freaking out about the timing):

So, my chart says ASA 1, MET over 7, NYHA 1, and GCS 15... what on earth do all those acronyms actually mean???

Also, I’m scheduled for a regional anesthetic—are there any issues if I’ve basically been smoking through a whole pack plus four extra cigarettes over the last month? I mean, practically speaking, I was smoking almost every single day, though mostly just when I was out and about. I had my last one this past Friday and told myself, "That's it, I'm done," and tossed the pack.
Before that, I was going through a pack that lasts maybe two weeks. In my opinion, you can't even call yourself a smoker unless you're burning through at least half a pack a day, right? 🤷

And regarding alcohol—I don't really drink normally. I only have a drink when I'm out, and I haven't been out much lately. I didn't tell them I drink because I don't consider someone a drinker if they only have something once every two weeks (or even less frequently). My last drink was also on Friday.

My blood pressure is low, I'm not overweight, and my heart and lungs seem fine (the X-ray mentioned some "BO" thing?), the only issue is respiratory arrhythmia, but the anesthesiologist said that's totally normal for someone my age (I'm in my early 20s).
