Original Post by carmenxox:

 

survival of the fittest I guess.. perhaps this is natures way of controlling our exploding population? Sorry but I'm all for the way Nature should work, evolution and what not.. and if I myself am not equipt to survive, then I shall except my fate and make room for the strong.

 

 I totally agree.

I think all the dumb strong people with good immune systems should live, and all of us weakly asthmatics should die. That would be for the best.

Who needs science and intelligence, lets just let nature run its course.

(and before I get pounced on, NO, I don't think all strong people with good immune systems are dumb!)

I have to agree with everyone who said that it depends on the person.

To me it's completely realistic. My parents met when my mom was 15 and my dad was 17. They've been happily married for 26 years.

I personally couldn't imagine being with more than one person at once. I don't necessarily feel that my way is the right way, it's just what feels right for me.

Is the house old? Do you know if it's near or built with any limestone? I've read that limestone is linked to a lot of poltergeist activity. I haven't looked into it much though.

Haha, yea...it's pretty silly. I get a lot of crap about it from my boyfriend and brother. I check it almost daily though! No idea why.

I can appreciate someone being blunt if there's advice or a reason behind it.
Like for instance, someone like pg. Even though I didn't agree with her at times, I could appreciate her bluntness.

The majority of what I've read from jackattack (maybe it's just coincidental) are just insults. That's why I made my comment in the other thread.

eta: ...and I still don't get how being rude to people over the internet means you have big balls.

I also don't care about this enough to continue posting about it.

I wash my hands after using the bathroom, before eating, before cooking, after working, and before bed. I always try to carry hand sanitizer with me. I like to wipe down my steering wheel, use it after pumping gas, and use it after work.

Hmmm, I don't know though.

Are we saying jackattack has big balls because she insults people over the internet, or because she literally has big balls?

If it's insulting people over the internet, I would think it would be the opposite of big balls because you're hiding behind a computer. If it's just that she has big balls, well...then she has big balls. I can't argue that.

I'm a bit skeptical about it, but that's simply because I'm extremely paranoid when it comes to stuff like that.

I have asthma, so more than likely I'll get it. Plus I'm working in a pharmacy right now.  Tons of parents come in with their sick kids hacking all over the place..and they're usually picking up tamiflu, which more than likely means they have swine flu.

I probably already have it :/

The Shining
Saw II (I'm not even a fan of the Saw movies)
The Halloween movies
I really like the book It, but I've never seen the movie. I heard it wasn't that good.

I just saw the movie Paranormal Activity this weekend. I didn't find it scary at all while watching it, but I was so paranoid at night!

jackie speaks the truth in her own way. no sugarcoating. personally, i like how she cuts through the happy-dappy bs and gets to the heart of the matter. pffft.

 It's completely unecessary to laugh at the girl, say her boyfriend hates her, and then say she's a loon. I don't see where there's truth in that or how it's helpful.

Jackattack, the fact that you continuously say rude things just to get a rise out of people is getting very very old.

It's going to be full time for 6 weeks (5 weeks starting next Monday). Then I'm getting transferred to an office where I'll be dealing with phone calls. The calls will only be refills and general store information. I won't be doing anything with insurance, and of course any clinical questions will get transferred to a pharmacist.

It's supposed to be training, but 90% of what I'm going to be doing isn't going to relate to my actual job. Plus, they're not training me!

I'm naturally a very high anxiety person, so this is just added stress to what I already have. I'm just going to have to suck it up, because I really want the end position. Good pay and benefits, I can't complain...
I'll just have to ignore the little voice in my head that says "If you don't like it, there's the door. Leave." Even though it's tempting.

Thanks! I took a look at it.

I also actually googled pharmacy technicians and the chain store I'm working for. Looks like a lot of what I experienced is the norm. I'm not looking forward to these next few weeks :(
I think I'm going to have to go on meds for anxiety! I'll definitely be losing weight :/

I've been getting the flu shot for years now because of my asthma. I've never had any problems, or the flu for that matter.

I know a lady who refuses to take any form of medicine (besides natural remedies) or go to a doctor.

She's been having her period every day for 12 years....EVERY DAY!!!
CLEARLY the natural remedies she's using aren't helping, but she still won't get checked out. I find it very disturbing.

I'm a 22 year old college student as well.

I drink about once a week on average (clearly it depends on the week), and it takes about 3 mixed drinks to get me to my happy place, haha.

I don't think drinking twice a week is bad at all. Five drinks does seem a little excessive, but maybe I'm just a light weight...

What is the special-k diet exactly? Do you substitute the cereal in for lunch...or breakfast? or both maybe?

My friends sister did it and she now looks like a walking skeleton (she was small to begin with), but I'm pretty sure she was just eating a couple of bowls of cereal a day.

I'm not sure what your budget is, but I would recommend at least looking around before you go the online route.  Plus, if you can find a dress that you can buy off the rack you'll get a really really good deal. So who knows, you might get lucky ;)

I used to work at a bridal shop and all of our dresses were under $900. The majority were in the $300-600 range, and we had some gorgeoussss dresses.

I agree with amethystgirl on at least going and trying different styles on. That way you'll have an idea of what to chose. Pay attention to the fabrics as well, that way when you order you'll know what to expect.

Here's a designer that's fairly cheap (of course prices change from store to store) and has some really good quality stuff.

I don't believe you can purchase directly through them though, but they have a link where you can see if there are retailers near you.

Congrats and good luck!

 

Calorie Count Too Many ED Posts..... Oct 18 2009

I almost 100% agree, but...

I remember when I first joined this site people pinned me as having an eating disorder even though my weight was in the healthy range, and I was aiming for a weight in the healthy range. I was receiving quite a bit of hate.
My weight is at the lower end of the BMI range for my height, so people assumed I had some form of disordered eating. I'll admit my eating patterns are kind of sporadic (I eat little during the day, and a lot at night), but so are my sleeping patterns. Both of which my doctor know about, and is trying to help me with.
I ended up asking more questions in the fitness forum, because I'm a dumb dumb when it comes to fitness (and I was really only trying to lose 4 pounds anyways).

It just seems like a lot of people are labeled as having an ED if they're not at least 20 pounds overweight. There's nothing wrong with being healthy and wanting to get healthier. I might weigh 112 pounds, but I'm definitely not in great shape.

Now...the members who are clinically underweight and stubborn about continuing to lose weight, that's a problem. I feel like they should be directed to the weight gain forum for help, and if they violate the rules again, should simply have their account deleted.

 eta: I always wondered why gi-jane wasn't a mod....must have turned the offer down at some point?

If you stay out of the weight gain and health and support forums you should be fine (for the most part).

The Lounge Have you ever been to a lock and key party? Oct 16 2009

I went to a club one night and that was the theme.

I didn't really enjoy it to be honest. I also didn't intend on going to a "lock and key" party, so my situation is a bit different.

I just don't like being approached by desperate guys looking to get laid, and that gave them all the perfect excuse.
