Damn, I wouldn’t have been able to take that. I would have told them to put me the fuck out rather than have to see and hear it and realize that was my knee they were doing that to. Even though it was to make things better.
Where you come from, you’re probably not thousands of dollars in debt and were totally failed by what is supposed to be one of the top hospitals in the world to the point that the patient advocate got me a full refund including the AirBnB.
Me, not so much.
So yeah, I think I’ll talk about how the for-profit system has totally failed me when I am dealing with two chronic illnesses. Sorry you don’t like it. Too fucking bad for you.
You know how when someone lives in a country and is severely negatively affected by its policies, they feel justified in talking about it?
I know it’s very strange that humans talk about things that are actively harming them, but I’m sure you’ll figure it out someday.
It’s a microcosm of the American healthcare system. It’s cheaper and safer to let children perform surgery with tweezers.
Just looking at a picture should clear it up:
This is how we played it: you take out as many organs as you can until you are buzzed and then it’s the next player’s turn. When you run out of organs, the player with the most wins.
I mean the fun part was just trying to get them out anyway.
Yeah, that is harsh. My grandmother played that and Candyland with me all the time. And as a parent now, I know what hell that was. Especially the latter.
I’m guessing it’s the reverse- quality control got less over time. The Mousetrap I’ve seen recently looks much crappier than the one we had, which was from the 70s. Which is weird since it’s just plastic.
I remember we had that when I was a kid with all the other family board games, but I don’t remember anyone ever playing it.
We always did free parking, but I pretty much only ever played Monopoly with my best friend who lived around the corner, so if the game took a week, it wasn’t a big deal.
It did not help that neither of us were willing to be vicious to the other. It was a very friendly monopoly game with occasional jabs.
If it was going to work every time what was the need to even do all the building?
To see the little man get flipped into the pool. Duh.
Not even once in my case.
I don’t know what back then means. I grew up in the 80s and we just never did either. Mousetrap was awesome because it was this complicated machine, but triggering it was the fun part, so that’s all we ever did. And Operation, you just went for the one you thought you could get.
Well I’ve finally met someone!
Oh I loved it, but I don’t know anyone who did anything but put it together and trigger it. And they went to the trouble of making a whole game around it that I’ve never met anyone who has ever played.
Beakman’s World honored Mr. Wizard by naming the penguins Don and Herb (Mr. Wizard’s name was Don Herbert).
Mr. Wizard was great, but he wasn’t funny. Beakman’s World is funny. Even for adults.
He apparently holds the legal rights to the character.
Yes. Both are in the subset of “kids,” all of which the person above you said should go to theaters alone. They did not give an age range.
Frighteningly big.
Please do not buy your child a gummy bear bigger than their head. We have enough problems with diabetes as it is.
