- High Blood Pressure? -- nm - amoxy Jan 23, 13:00

  - Sorta hoping it's as simple as that. - ty97 Jan 23, 12:58 4
    - Maybe it's just the hotel stay? -- nm - JenBro Jan 23, 13:11
    - from one hypochondriac to another - it's something simple. you are a healthy male. maybe it's viral. - TwinkLander Jan 23, 13:01 2
      - haha, I just mean I hope it's something that simple to fix. 10 days of antibiotics and better would make me very hapy. - ty97 Jan 23, 13:12 1
        
        glad you are going to get it checked out -- nm - TwinkLander Jan 23, 13:21

      - Fingers crossed for you! -- nm - JenBro Jan 23, 13:02
      - Are they at least helping? -- nm - amoxy Jan 23, 13:01 2
        
        Thanks guys. Each round of antibiotics has done a good job of holding it at bay (some pain, but manageable). It is afterwards that is the concern. - Spawn - Blood Feud Lord and Master Jan 23, 13:05 1
        
        :) maybe it's a "regional" thing and you need to move Up North - Bub can become a championship skier! -- nm - JenBro Jan 23, 13:09

  - I've always understood those to be sharp and painful, which is not what I'm experiencing - ty97 Jan 23, 12:55 3
    - they don't have to be sharp and stabbing. But they usually are. I would say probably blood pressure for the vision and head pressure but the nausea - sycor Jan 23, 13:04 2
      - When I've had them they've been dull but all encompassing... - Mel Profit Jan 23, 13:13
      - I have awesome BP. -- nm - ty97 Jan 23, 13:12
Pet peeve #5589: My parents and wife have no discrimation between emailing me at my personal email vs. home - oblique Jan 23, 12:51 7
- E-mail etiquette education is sorely missing from peeps who don't... - Old Antarctic Explorer Jan 23, 13:13
- That's why no one but my wife has my work email and she knows not to send something unless replying. - spamlet (iPhone) Jan 23, 12:56

- I set up rules and forward mail where I want. it's so much easier than getting peeved by it, and should you reply, - the amanda nones Jan 23, 12:52 1
  - I usually just forward all my mail to one email address. and no one really emails me at work. and nmb amanda - sycor Jan 23, 12:59
- Probably because they do not understand why you have a persoanl email as well as home? -- nm - Spawn - Blood Feud Lord and Master Jan 23, 12:52 1
  - work - oblique Jan 23, 12:54
*wonders if Max is going to go in for an eyelash tint* -- nm - Spawn - Blood Feud Lord and Master Jan 23, 12:51 1

        I mean, is she doing performance art right now? That's the only logical explanation. -- nm - David Jan 23, 13:09 1
        
        Granted, you should be in timeout for the D&D thing...but still. - Will Hunting Jan 23, 13:10

- I'm sure the Farrelly bros will do a bang up job with the Three Stooges. - Mop (198 lbs) Jan 23, 12:54 5
  - From what I've seen they've destroyed The Three Stooges. -- nm - Krusty Jan 23, 12:56 4
    - Behold! Sarcasm. - Mop (198 lbs) Jan 23, 13:00 1
      - I missed it because you praised them in the IM. Also, I'm slow. -- nm - Krusty Jan 23, 13:24
    - The trailer looked god-awful -- nm - amoxy Jan 23, 12:57 1
      - Yup. I was annoyed since I was hoping for something good. Love the stooges. -- nm - Krusty Jan 23, 12:58

    - him and Hader. -- nm - Remlik Jan 23, 13:16
    - And closes mad ass. -- nm - Spawn - Blood Feud Lord and Master Jan 23, 13:11
  - He's an ugly, unfunny dude. His entire career is a mystery to me. -- nm - David Jan 23, 12:53 3

  - His middle name is Tripod. -- nm - Spawn - Blood Feud Lord and Master Jan 23, 12:53 2
    - This. I have no doubt he's hung like a horse. It's the only explanation. -- nm - Mop (198 lbs) Jan 23, 12:54 1
      - Guys with larger packages are more confident in most parts of their life. - Spawn - Blood Feud Lord and Master Jan 23, 12:55
