1285: Calling Dr. Robinson

I voted yes because the DSM counts ADD and ADHD a mental disorder, though i really don't consider it a mental disorder.

John F. was right! The college dude complaining about his roommate is a pussy! (Ok, John didn't say that like that, but he insinuated it.)

First, if shit is bothering you, say something to your roommate. The guy is not just a new roommate, but supposedly a friend.

Second, it's college!!! If you can't get some in college, you are a pussy! Don't begrudge your roommate's opportunity to get some and go get some yourself! If not now, then when? When you're out in the 'real world' begging for a job? I think not!

If you can't work this out then you need some lessons on how to deal with people.

And, yes, stop being such a pussy!

I went to the Doctor because my jaw had been hurting. They said I probably had TMJ (Temporomandibular joint - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia) and that it was related to stress, and I was depressed. I thought this was strange. Sure I'm a hypochondriac but I don't think that I'm depressed. But I said fuck it. Took the sample Cymbalta they prescribed to me. It was the worst experience EVER! I had a fecking panic attack. My jaw was still throbbing. I called the Doctor in my panicked state, told them I felt like I was going to die, I felt twitchy, dizzy and sick. They said to take it for about a week and those side effects would go away. I laughed and gave them a great big "ohh yeah fucking right". It took about 12 hours to wear off. Worse experience EVER!

Went to an ear, nose and throat specialist. They did an x-ray and found that my wisdom teeth were growing into my jaw, that's why it hurt.

30 mins of being knocked out while they sawed all 4 out of my head, a few stitches, 3 weeks of recovery and a bottle of tylenol 3 later, no more jaw pain.

Either way going to the doctor sucked nuts, but at least I got it fixed. There is no way I would ever depend on depression meds. It's like tunnel vision, like you're stuck in a fog 24/7.

Might as well smoke weed. It's not NEEARRRLY as strong as those meds that they're just handing out to people who have any type of unexplained pain.

Hey, Benji. You know what isn't a lie. We kicked your ass at Yorktown.

Possibly. Twain popularized it, as Keith said.

Maybe the April Fools breakup spike is idiot guys making a joke about breaking up/cheating, then the girl either breaks up with the tard or goes "good, because now I don't feel so bad about cheating on you" and they break up.

Fritzl didnt gfet the death penalty thanks to a fucking shady lawyer

Quote:

Fritzl's defence lawyer, Rudolf Mayer, said that although the DNA test proved incest, evidence was still needed for the other allegations: "The allegations of rape and enslaving people have not been proven. We need to reassess the confessions made so far"

This is also why i despise the conept of lawyers. in front of a crime like the one he committed there should be no trial or ability to get away with it (and nothing but an execution for such stuff IS getting away with it), there should be no trial or defense discussion.
