I actually toyed with the idea of just adding a letter to make it sound feminine—probably wouldn't be quite as embarrassing—but I decided against it. 😁
Biokill works wonders, but if you’re dealing with a floor that isn't made of flammable junk, I’d suggest following up with some flame therapy. I dealt with a nightmare scenario in my garage once. It had those cracked concrete floors—a total disaster zone. We’re talking a full-blown invasion. I threw serious money at all sorts of chemical sprays, but nothing seemed to actually move the needle. So, here was my game plan: I sprayed the pets first to wipe out the pests hitching a ride on them, then applied fipronil to their necks after two days so they wouldn't have a place to hang out. In the meantime, I went over the entire floor with a long-range propane torch. Every single square inch. Just dragging the tank along, sweeping left to right, back and forth. It fried both the bugs and the eggs. Before I started the burning, I’d see about 50 fleas jumping at my feet in seconds—honestly, it was a horrific sight—but now? I see maybe one flea every ten minutes. Though, frankly, I have no clue where that last one even teleported from. 😬
I repeated the whole process over a two-day period. Just make sure you don't have anything combustible lying around. You don't want to burn the house down.
Honestly, it would be great if they just sold some kind of canister where you could just pop the top and get the fuck out of there while some poison mist crawls across the floor and nukes every flea and egg in its path. I actually toyed with the idea of rigging something up to spray chlorine, but that would’ve just corroded all my gear.
The bottom line is you have to hit them from two sides: kill the ones that are there and starve the rest. If you’re cleaning and spraying, but the pets are sleeping around without any protection on them, they’ll just gorge themselves on blood all night and reset the whole cycle.
Linda Long3 said:Beyond just what we eat and all the junk we pump into our systems—whether we realize it or not—there’s a growing consensus (even within mainstream American medicine) that our mental state, our fears, and those suppressed emotions play a massive role in our physical health. Without getting bogged into labels or dismissing this stuff as "alternative" anything, does anyone want to jump in and talk about how energy interacts with matter? After all, that's basically the entire focus of metaphysics.
even within mainstream American medicine See, there you go. That's just plain wrong. We've known that since the dawn of modern science.
And that bolded part? Total nonsense. If you actually want to have a conversation about energy interacting with matter, you head over to the Natural Sciences department and talk about thermodynamics, materials physics, heat transfer, the photoelectric effect, and things like that.
But sure, clearly you have no idea what energy actually is. 🙂
I honestly wonder how long this thread is going to hang around here. I mean, really—what kind of logic is it to be asking about anesthesia on a subforum like this? 😬
Anyway, let’s actually stick to the topic. Before you even get the anesthesia, they give you a sedative to take the edge off, so you’re already feeling mellow. 😁 As for the actual anesthesia itself, you probably won't even realize it's happening. You just drift into this heavy, foggy state where your brain stops recording almost all incoming information anyway. Waking up can be pretty rough, too. You might get the chills and start shaking like a leaf, or just feel completely weak and disoriented. You'll be totally out of it. Technically, the nurses are supposed to be monitoring you while you come around, but let's be real—most of them head out for a coffee break. 👎
Here’s an experiment for you. A few hours before your procedure, try to memorize a specific sequence of numbers, and then try to recall them a few hours after you wake up. Also, pick a specific word to remember right before the anesthesia hits. The result? You'll barely remember anything, if that. Your brain just isn't going to file that data into long-term memory. It's pretty interesting when you think about it. 🙂
Look, pollution isn't some inevitable part of the process. But when it comes to reaching ejakulacija during masturbation, you really ought to be able to manage that by age 16. Honestly, by 14, you should already be there.
rustyscout34 said:I don't really think this qualifies as a classic horror flick. It’s definitely not the kind of movie where the director is trying to make your blood run cold just for the sake of it. Like you mentioned earlier, just throwing blood on screen doesn't automatically make something a horror movie. To me, this feels more like a blend of an art-house horror and a psychological thriller, with a heavy leaning toward the "art" side of things. If you’re someone who digs David Lynch or that disorienting "WTF?" sensation, you’ll probably get a lot out of this. Unlike some other films in the genre, this one actually asks some heavy questions and pushes for real change. My only real gripe with the director is that they didn't bother offering any actual solutions—they just point at the problem and say, "Hey, we need to change this." That song I pasted above pretty much sums up the whole vibe. What's the deal with all this?Also, let’s get one thing straight: this wasn't aiming for black comedy. It was going for satire, and those are two very different beasts.
p.s. Have you seen it? Bator BatorAny recommendations? (Looking for something good)
Yeah, that actually holds up. I honestly just want to understand what the deal is with those constant calls to that kid who clears his throat after every single sentence, and all that shouting going on in the theater. Someone please explain it to me. 🙂
I watched Bator a few years back. Honestly, I liked it way more than this one, though my memory of it is pretty hazy at this point. I feel like I could really go for a rewatch. 😁
If they were actually aiming for horror, then that subway station scene was a total swing and a miss. You can throw all the circus music and gallons of blood you want at the screen, but it isn't scary unless the acting actually conveys genuine suffering—which clearly wasn't the case here. Instead of making me recoil, they just made me go "WTF" or laugh. If the goal was true horror or an atmospheric suicide that makes your blood run cold—think of that scene in *The Dark Knight* where a kid jumps from a skyscraper—they should have stripped away all the gore entirely. Honestly, the soundtrack is the only thing keeping this afloat; without it, the whole sequence would be pure trash.
It felt more like they were trying to pull off some kind of dark comedy.
"It’s not bad"—that’s all I meant. I just meant it isn't one of those absolute disasters that started flooding the market after the Circle era, mainly because audiences nowadays seem to swallow anything put in front of them while simultaneously throwing money down the drain.
Snowblood Apple is singing its praises, along with a few other outlets, but honestly? I'm just not seeing what the big deal is.
Watched it today. I followed the whole thread, and while the adults didn't really trip me up, I still can't quite wrap my head around the core message. To me, the essence seems to be in the kids—especially that little guy who won't stop clearing his throat. Who even is that dude, and what's his deal? What's with all those kids in the theater? It’s not a bad movie; it touches on alienation and the deep-seated issues within American society, but it just feels incredibly vague to me.
Angela Davis93 said:One doctor tells me to stay far away from preservatives, while another thinks it’s probably fruit since I eat stuff like Doritos and all those other processed snacks constantly. I had some peaches—I don't usually eat them, like, almost never—but I ate them about a week ago and felt totally fine. So now I'm confused; if the peaches were the trigger, why didn't I react the first time? Anyway, until they actually run some tests, I've just been told to stick to "healthy food" but apparently even fruit is off-limits. It's a total mess.
First off, using the term "healthy food" is pretty much meaningless. Most food is healthy if you aren't eating it like a maniac.
Honestly, I wouldn't put much stock in the peach theory. It could just be the specific variety. Peaches pop up in allergy discussions all the time, kind of like how peanuts do. Whatever, just skip them for now. Stick to apples. 🙂 And just wait for the lab results.
Look, HIV is transmitted through blood, not saliva. In that specific case—and I really wish someone would actually go out and dig up some facts here—it was probably just two people who happened to have some nasty open sores or bleeding gums in their mouths at the time.
As for the list, hmm, I'll have to track that down somewhere.
Why don't you just start a thread with an actual, decent title for once? Where would this forum even be if everyone started posting clickbait garbage like this?
Look, if China is what’s causing your thirst, just chugging tonics isn't exactly a genius move. If you're actually dealing with some kind of chronic thirst, go see a doctor at a local clinic and get some bloodwork done. Constant, unquenchable thirst is usually a sign that something is physically wrong.
It’s most likely a bite from a tigrast mosquito. I’ve got the exact same kind of bruising under my skin. The golden rule here is: do not scratch. From what I can gather, their saliva spreads incredibly easily from the initial puncture site, creating this blotchy mess, and then adding external heat or just the friction of scratching only makes the tissue reaction worse. It probably triggers some kind of breakdown in the local tissue, which leads to that bleeding under the skin. Scratching just accelerates the whole breakdown and bleeding process. For years now, ever since these little pests first showed up, I’ve learned that if I feel an itch, I don't just react instinctively. Instead, I stop and actually inspect the spot first. If I see that tiny, web-like bruising pattern characteristic of those mosquito bites, I leave it alone. If I really need to, I might apply some Kamagel, assuming I have some on hand.
The doctor isn't wrong here. HIV is an incredibly volatile virus under the conditions we're talking about, and honestly, Hepatitis isn't much better. By cutting yourself, you basically invited bacteria into your bloodstream and left the door wide open for trouble, but if your immune system is actually doing its job, it’ll wipe those little guys out before they even get started. Plus, you got an injection. If you aren't dealing with swelling, pus, or a fever, there's no reason to panic.
If you want some peace of mind for your own sanity, why don't you just go get tested for those things? There's really no downside.
Screens haven't had that constant flicker for a long time now. A few years back, the standard for CRT monitors was an 85 Hz refresh rate, which most people didn't even notice. Then they jumped up to 120 Hz, and eventually, we moved to LCD screens that don't flicker at all because their refresh rates are way higher than 60 Hz.
So, yeah, life is great. But let’s look at this logically: if you're stuck using an old monitor from 1999 that flickers at 60 Hz—which is super noticeable and honestly pretty unpleasant—how are you supposed to protect your eyes from that strobe effect? Using some passive filter isn't going to cut it. Think about it for a second—how is looking through two pieces of glass going to stop a screen from physically turning on and off? All glasses can really do is block certain electromagnetic waves, meaning they might shift the color, change the brightness, or maybe filter out polarized waves if they have that specific type of lens.
Look, a laptop isn't pumping out ionizing radiation; it’s just non-ionizing stuff, the same kind you're putting off right now. Plus, the electric field around the thing is negligible since it runs on such low voltage. Laptops can get pretty hot, too—especially certain models, like an HP—so it’s really not a great idea to be resting something sensitive on top of a heat source for hours on end. It’s just uncomfortable.
