Check your able-to-donate-blood privilege

Is your iron count too low or blood pressure too high? Why did they disqualify you? My girlfriend got disqualified for low iron because she's a skinny vegan. I got disqualified last summer for slamming an energy drink right before.

Not sure what else you can disqualify for. Ive done that rapid pass on the app 20 times now but most of that stuff are things most would say no I think.

On a serious note, if you guys really are a bunch of 30+ year olds. You don't want to have days you don't move. High LDL and a low metabolism is ripe for developing plaque in those arteries along with hyper tension. You at least want to keep some dumbbells near if your being a couch potato and doing a couple sets each hour.

Please get your bloodwork done and donate blood when you can. It's quick and easy

I like the Italian Sausage deep dish with stuffed crust from Little Caesars. You can get them for like 12 bucks here. 8 big squares of yum.

I sometimes do an hour of elliptical high resistance in the morning and an hour of neighborhood walking at night and I'm no where near 10000

My pedometer says over 18k yesterday but it's probably a damn liar. Ok nm, maybe it's right but it can't actually be that many. It's measuring smaller steps, gotta be. That's insane. I'm like a rat in a maze.

There's stuff like this all day where lawyers just live off of other people's cases like parasites. Sometimes it feels like much of the world is just scamming everybody and skulling in the shadows nervously while simultaneously grinning and looking deathly worried as if the universe is going to drop a meteor of justice on them.

Hardware is a risky adventure and they aren't really versed in full form factor media like this. Most of their peripherals have failed and I think their VR is on its way out.

If this survives and thrives it will be because of some odd demo that they tapped. $400 is a bit pricey for the slot it fills when most people who would want this probably have phones where they spend their money.

Nintendo is the master of portables. Let them do it. This is gonna be SEGA Gamegear 2.0. Atari Lynx even.

I'm 15US in Nike running shoes and 12.5US in most anything else. "Wtf is up with Nike running shoes." I think my feet are wide or something. Then in some dress shows they're like 11.5US

I just came here because when I made my account, I was playing legend of mana remaster and a topic for it popped up on this board. I didn't know there were social boards on gameFAQs now. I must've never looked for this years ago. I mostly just use GameFAQs for specific games anyway. I think the first time I was used this site back in the day was for GameShark codes. I was trying stuff out on Mario 64 or something. I don't remember the site having boards back then.

Jesus, I just realized that some of you may not have even been born back then. Getting old sucks.

I was being hyperbolic. The tuna doesn't squirt out. It just shakes a bit when I'm peeling the cap with the tool and gets on it. Especially when I'm having to just use the clap to manually circle crimp away the top by individual piercing like 30 times.

I learned about the fizzing and pressurized containers in military school. Happened with tomato soup.

I never used it. The people are mean and the only good thing there are the pictures. At the expense of being traumatized by other pictures.

I used to use GameFAQs years ago, but I don't remember my account and the email company stopped letting us use the service. It was a company email from Novell when I worked for them.

Fun fact: We found out they were reading our emails because it was considered a beta site the whole time.

I liked the official Bethesda boards for Morrowind and Oblivion years ago. The people there were nice. Seems like nowadays lots of people try and pick fights. My friend said it's because they're bored. I ain't never been that bored. lol

Rusting may have been the issue. I always spray the can's explosive juice off them, but i should've paper toweled them I guess. I'm going to pick up one of those electric ones with the knife sharpeners on the back. My ex took my old one. That damn thing could open cans like magic. I never did use the sharpener part though.

I swear, I've had to buy a new one every year or so and in that year I maybe open 20 cans.

Maybe the electric ones last longer?

Burger King is definitely one of those joints that can be hit or miss. There are about 7 within 25 miles of me. Out of those 7, only 3 have clean and predictable food.

I think some BK do not follow storage protocol or cooking protocol because they're bound to be getting the same inventory. The only thing I ever order there is the whopper or their chicken sandwiches.

The ones near expensive areas usually can be trusted more. But I wouldn't count on it. We had a Wendy's in downtown Charlotte when I was a teen that was in the news because the owner wouldn't reprimand or fire these girls that would be mean to the customers. It was some race thing looking back. They put a cop in there and for years it was never a problem. It happened right around 2000 to 2001. People would come in there looking for a fight. They tried to burn it down, it closed for a few months and reopened with completely new staff. I'll always remember that day because I listening to that song "Drive" by Incubus on the way to night school after it reopened. Damn, I wish I could go back. That was a good time.

The overall movie is good, but there are a few slow times. If it wasn't Heath Ledger as the main guy I don't think it would hold up though. I finally watched it again a couple years ago. A kid having not seen much would probably like it a lot.
TopicWhy do people in Canada call canadian bacon ham?

There are lots of fake things like Canadian Bacon claiming to be from many countries marketed here in the US. Like Provolone cheese. In Italy, it's a different type that's called that.

Companies do this because who's gonna stop them? You see us complaining here? That's as far as our power goes. If a company wanted to market new hotdogs as German hotdogs, put the flag colors on the package and just made some shit up, who's gonna stop them?

They are there to make money. They don't care about reality. They just want you to pick it up and pay for it. And please don't call customer service. We wanna keep one staffer there so we can make more profit!

Hell, most ethnic cuisine stateside I hear gets its wrong. Who's gonna stop them? Nobody.

It was the only FF I didn't buy day 1. I still remember the day I bought FF1 at Radio shack with my childhood friend Andrew. I remember FF2(4) at Kmart. 3(6) I got for Christmas. 7 8 9 we're probably preorders or day 1s from Eb Games at South Park Mall. 10 from Target in Pineville near the AMC24. 10-2 I don't remember where. I think a friend and I bought a copy each on the same day from somewhere near him. 11 for Christmas from my brother. 12 in Ohio during University from GameStop. 13 from Best Buy. 13-2 collectors from online somewhere. 13-3 I didn't buy for personal reaaons. 14 collectors from Amazon. 15 I never bought and never will. I'm just done really.

Tales of games are more me. Berseria did kinda half a sour middle bit through. I sure Arise will be fine.

Oh and FF 2 3 5 I got in some PS1/PSP editions I believe.
