Place to put my Nonsense Thread.

So true. And I'm with you. Never wear a mask, but had no issues getting the vaccine. People that stray from this thought process on either side, I'm not going to fully understand. Double masking after your booster, yeesh. On the flip side, shut up about your conspiracy vaccine theories.
This seems like a non political stance. And I agree with it 100% though I’m still wearing a mask if I’m taking public transit bc mfs are nasty Covid or not.
 
SHit is crazy.....

I go to ER for possible separated shoulder...Which it was, with some other shit going on,

BUT-------------

NP(Nurse pract) notices my HR is low(48). Which is sort of low, but i take medications that keep my HR low, plus I officiate a ton of games, athletic, and have a physical job. SO in decent shape---ANd not abnormal to have a low, resting HR. Anywho.....SHe then tells me my BP is low as well---107/65. Again, not really. She wants to admit me. I tell her I have a game @ 7:30, and its now 2:30, so no chance get a replacement...Tell her I feel fine, look at my chart, my history, it will show you this isn't abnormal. She's adamant that I stay----SO I ask for a cardiac consult, or for her to get in touch with my cardiologist. If they say to stay----I wll.

About 30 minutes rolls by, and I ask my nurse about pain meds---Tells me it on the way. Great. She comes back about 15 minutes later, with pain meds, and..................a COVID swab. I ask about that---Said they wanna make sure I don't have COVID, b/c that could be causing my symptoms----

Ummm, what symptoms?

Well your plapations, low HR, BP, and chest pain that you complained of...

Huh? I never mentioned that---I came here for MY SHOULDER. Which is SEPARATED. So , well me being be me, I asked----"Are separated shoulders a new symptom of COVID"? Lady next me laughed so hard---as did one of the nurses at the table..

So---NP comes back, tells me still waiting on cardiac to get back to her. But that I needed to stay, get evaluated, and needed to take COVID test...

BUT I came here for MY SHOULDER. Which is SEPARATED. So again I ask----"Can I get something for pain"? She ask if I plan on staying---I said, dunno. She walks over to my nurse and tells her, "If he leaves AMA, do not give him anything for pain..."---And then states, "He needs to at least take COVID test, due to his symptoms...."

What symptoms?

Anyways, I left. No pain meds, no prescription for home...Nothing. TOld me once I left AMA, their treatment stopped. Huh? Treatment for what?

I came here for MY SHOULDER. Which is SEPARATED.

TOld me sorry, hospital protocol...Huh? So, well, being me, I ask----"So, if I came here needing stitches to close a gash in my head, and you then wanted to keep me b/c of low HR, etc, etc....and I said no, thats normal-----you wouldn't give me stitches"?

Sir, please sign here, and you can go..

I go to ER, for a separated shoulder, and end with COVID symptoms.....

JFC...

I don’t wear a mask unless I go to the doctor. And that’s because they make me :cool:
Same here....Now, I will mask up before games(locker room) if others want me to. My normal crew, we don't(HS)---or college. But when I fill in, or work with different dudes, I'll wear a mask if they ask.
 
I wear a mask if a business requires but again, I'm very pro business. I do have an issue if people want to throw a fit and not wear one when a private business requires it. Go somewhere else IMO. It is extremely hypocritical as many who act silly about it are the same ones who act like they are also pro business. You can't just support the rights of business when it fits your sensitivities. It is the same thing as requiring anything else. I also have a problem if a business doesn't require it but they make you feel bad if you aren't wearing one.

Now, if it is just a recommendation, even if it is strongly recommended, than I'm not doing it. I prefer to not wear one.

I watch SNL when it's a new one and there isn't a sport on I want to see. Now and then there is a decent skit but it mostly sucks. Some of the political stuff can be humorous at times when it isn't trying to be serious. The best part of the show is the news, which is actually entertaining mainly because Jost and Che play well off each other. I do miss the good old days of the show though.

I watch new ones more than not. I've stopped at Weekend Update decades ago...unless it's someone killing it. Bowie gave the best performance ever and I can't find it for anything to relive it.


I was watching SNL when Princess Diana died.

He did SNL? I need to look that up. Absolutely love Bowie.
 
Well most teams that self-impose are doing it in years when they aren't going to make the tournament anyway.
As a mod what do you think about self imposed bans or ban bets? Ever ban someone because they lost a bet or is it just up to them to fulfil it?

Can a team say I'm self imposing, have a great season and be like, "nah"?

UL would do that.

No, I have never banned anyone for that. If they lose a ban bet and don't disappear that's on them. Usually they feel the wrath of everyone anyway for not going through with it.

Is anyone good at buying gifts? I suck at it. I care, have a few bucks and no idea what to buy.

I'd like to make it more personal than gift cards, but they seem to work. Amazon for all around. Sigh.
