OK, I'm starting to get back in the groove. I'm getting over the 25k mark consistently now. Haven't broken the 50k barrier yet, but I'm starting to remember some combos. And hit a couple 10k+ tricks. So I'll try again a bit later.

Jesus christ, I suck now that I'm old. I remember when 100k on level 1 was easy to get.

if your doc is saying go to work with a blood clot in your leg... sue for malpractice, that is NOT ok

That's what I said. Also the surgeon told my dad he was going to get some shots to avoid clots and he was never given any shots and his original release paperwork had no restrictions with continuing to work. So I think the hospital fucked up somewhere.

Doctor says if he can remain seated with foot elevated and avoid anything strenuous he can work. Work says they can meet those standards. So doctor says his hands are tied.

My dad had to use vacation time to not go in this week as he has 4 blood clots in his leg and is finding it quite painful. The doctor says his hands are tied because his company is telling the hospital they have work that he can do with his restrictions, so the doctor has to give the ok as long as the work can accommodate.

So he has like a page and a half of restrictions. One of them being he can't wear shoes. He works in a concrete factory. It is an osha violation to be in the building without steel toed shoes. Another is that he must be in a wheel chair. They are not wheelchair accessible. The ramps he would have to use are the same ramps that the forklifts use. I am curious at what they are going to have him do.

But I don't want to throw animals down a well.

There are Christians who are choosing him over Jesus. Why alienate the slightly less stupid ones who think he was anointed by God to appease the ones who think he is god?

that's good, it sounds like your dad's work is like "bruh, your doctor is a dum dum, go home"

Quite the opposite. It was more, "if you don't have a note telling you to stay home you have to come in, even though we have nothing for you to do. And even though I could say we have nothing for you to do and keep you at home I won't do that, so get a doctor to write a better note."

So his work doesn't have any work for him to do that is within his limitations, but instead of putting that down on paper and continuing the workman's comp, he is suggesting my dad get a second opinion to have his paperwork reflect that he isn't ready to come back to work.

Which he was going to do anyway because he still has physical therapy home visits he needs to be home for and he still needs to keep his leg elevated and iced which would be hard to do at work. But the phone call sounded weird.

I love comics as a medium. I hate the DC and marvel comic universes. I hate the 80 year history, I hate the frequent retcons, I hate the lack of growth.

Off the top of my head some comics I have really enjoyed.

Pretty sure my 5 and 6 year old nephews have a later bed time than I do.

The doctor just approved my dad to go back to work. Wtf? He still needs to keep all weight off his leg for another month and a half and they don't know for sure if it is healing properly for another 3 weeks. He still can't move without a walker. He has very limited range before he has to rest again. If a fire happens he's fucked.

81. I think that is including contests. Although I might have done polls more in my earlier years. I don't really remember.

Crunchy and prime mainly, but since my dad is stuck in bed for the next couple of months I also signed up for Netflix and Hulu. Since I had been considering them anyway.

Whats that from?

And he could write perfectly legible while drunk like in the fake text exchange at the same time?

He is an alcoholic. He can text perfectly legible while being drunk off his ass and I have had plenty of opportunities to witness it.

Darth_CiD posted...

Has anyone actually ever found these fake text exchanges funny?

Possibly real. Happened to my brother once. I think it was a bachelor party of some sort he was crashing on someone's couch. He woke up still drunk in the middle of the night didn't recognize where he was left wearing only one shoe. Went to a gas station got directions to where he just was, got lost broke into the neighbor's garage thinking it was the right house and passed out on the floor of their garage.

There was also the time he got so drunk he thought he was still living with his ex. Broke into her apartment that he used to live in before they broke up and passed out on the couch.

My brother really shouldn't drink.

Out of those either kit kat or peanut butter cups are my go tos with Twix, milky way, 3 musketeers, and hersheys being an occasional craving.

That said I would take a schogetten, lindor truffle, ritter sport, or milka over anything on that list.

If it takes you 1 second to pick up a penny... what is your wage if you pick up an endless line of pennies

...

Now, is that a waste of time for you?

If my math is right $74,880 assuming 8 hours a day 5 days a week.

Yeah I could do that. Turn on some head phones and just turn my brain off as I follow the line.

Really depends. I'm not waiting around an hour to save a dollar, but I still waste my time going to work in order to get enough money to pay my bills.

I don't like tattoos. I think they are usually pretty ugly and often an uninteresting and/or generic design.

That said. They are not getting the tattoos for you. So fuck off.

If it was truly "at will", that one definitely wins hands down. Think about how many political careers you could ruin by just having some bigshot shit themselves any time they're in a public place or at an important meeting of heads of state.

Probably not as many as you would like. Half these politicians are so old they are probably wearing diapers anyway. And if it happens too much they will start just in case. If it happens multiple times or too many other people they might start arguing the opposition is poisoning them and rile up their base at the prospect of the other guys winning through underhanded tactics. Q-anon already believes so many different conspiracies it wouldn't be hard to get them to believe it.

Monopoly on the switch. I'm not sure how that would work. There is no food. Maybe in carnival mode. I don't usually play that mode though.

Since they don't have hearts, what would the bile sac be attached to?

Love owl house. But even there they could use glyphs as long as a suitably powerful titan was near. In both the Harry Potter and Arcanum universes electricity does not mix with magic. In the HP universe the magic the robot would attempt to use would short out its power supply. In arcanum the presence of so much technology would render magic too weak to use. In fairy folk lore iron interferes with magic so any robot with iron it could potentially disrupt magic.

I was considering getting it to watch futurama and animaniacs. But at this point it is basically just cable through your internet rather than the cable company.

The bundling options suck, the ad free versions are more expensive than they should be, and the live TV option is a cable package that defaults your package to having ads. I'm told there is an ad free with live option as well, but it wasn't giving me that option on sign up.

Decided not to bother with it for now. Only reason I still have disney+ is that I am currently grandfathered in at the 79.99 a year for adfree price. If that changes I'm dropping.

So, the lawyer said specifically to not sign the HIPPA release allowing them to see his medical history. Now the insurance company says they will not cover workman's comp without the release and told him if he doesn't get the paperwork back to them right away they can't pay the hospital or give him workman's comp amd the bill will be sent to collections where it will hurt my parents credit and they will be stuck with the bill. My parents want to sign and send the paperwork so they don't risk any bills and they dont think they can do much with it since he has a mostly clean history. I think they should go to the nice lawyer they found and got a free consultation from and pay him to handle everything. If he specifically said not to sign a full release there must be a reason for it.

probably still plenty of room to scrutinize the operator's training, whatever policies they have around forklift operation (and, more applicably, how they're enforced),

Apparently they are shown how to use a fork lift when they start and never again. My dad said he has never recertified after he was hired and never had any refresher training courses.

clearly delineating lanes to separate forklift traffic from foot traffic

That part they have. And he was in the foot traffic area not the forklift lane. So yeah, the company should be screwed. And personally I would take them for everything they're worth. My ex was friends with one of the owners kids and they have the kind of money where they forget what is actually considered a lot of money.

How does he feel about puzzles? Like crosswords or sudoku?

I don't think I have ever seen him touch a puzzle before.

He gets out of the hospital today. It turns out my dad is the one trying to avoid a lawsuit. He is trying to downplay the injury and doesn't want to deal with the lawsuit or cause problems for something he sees as just an accident. Even to the point where he didn't want to bother the nurse asking for pain medication.

In the mean time the company has already tried to get his complete medical history instead of just the medical information pertaining to the injury. My mom thought that sounded fishy and consulted with a lawyer who told her not to sign it and to instead request a different form that only gives them relevant medical information.

So now we have to find a way to keep him entertained for the next 8 weeks. The problem is he has no hobbies and actually looks down on most hobbies. He won't touch video games, he hates to read, he doesn't like computers, he does like day time television, but is already getting sick of it after having nothing else to do but watch it in the hospital. Anyone have a suggestion for something an old guy who doesn't like things could do for 8 weeks?
