I don’t think Chicago has anyone original left…?

“…moment you you gaze…”

I’ve never called my parents by their first names, and I’ve never known someone who did.

I called my grandparents “Grandma and Grandpa [Last Name]”. But my aunts and uncles were “Aunt [First Name]” and “Uncle [First Name]”. I would say that’s pretty standard for the USA.

Ludicrous speed.

Ludacris is the rapper, but I like your enthusiasm. :)

Someone else remembers CompuServe?!

I can nostalgically hear the sounds of the game while looking at these pictures. “Here we go!”

Trumpet, keg, piano keys…yep, this all checks out.

My boyfriend in his 40s finally got diagnosed with ADHD by a psychologist after suffering his whole life. The psychologist recommended stimulant medication.

Now he’s talking to a nurse, and has been prescribed a few different drugs that have helped some with his anxiety (gabapentin, zyprexa, the occasional xanax), but she refuses to prescribe a stimulant to address the ADHD because “it might make his anxiety worse”.

Why the fuck do you think he has anxiety? Could it be because he has had unmedicated ADHD for DECADES, and every time he tries to concentrate to complete a task, he can’t? And every time he tries to not dwell on bad thoughts and bad memories, he can’t make himself think about anything else, so he spirals downward? Because his ADHD is unmedicated? Jesus Christ.

Sorry for the long rant. We’ve been seeing her for a few months, but I’m losing hope that the actual problem is ever going to be addressed.

TL;DR: I wish I could get my bf into the category of “older person with ADHD taking stimulants”.

I’m afraid Arlington cemetery is in Virginia. This is the Arlington in Texas (near Dallas/Fort Worth).

Edit: Lol, I didn’t even look at the healthy cities. I went straight to the naughty list.

I’m honored!

I bought a reusable tote for like $3 in the section at the front of Target where they stick all the cheap stuff. It looks like it’s made of woven burlap. It says “Going to Market” on the sides. It’s shorter than the standard reusable tote, but a reasonable width.

I bought it on a whim and thought it would sit in my trunk after I forgot about it. I use it all the time, and I’ve gotten a ton of compliments on it at checkouts of various stores.

The movie Castaway. This gif is sped up, which is making it more comedic looking then it was intended.

The number of people who are “knitting” in a movie or on TV…maybe 40% of them are actually doing it, and that’s a high estimate (shout out to Miss Marple!). The rest appear to be wrapping yarn around one of the needles and then moving it vigorously, lol.

This is what I’ve said since I learned of this experiment. I’m only waiting for the second marshmallow if BOTH of the following statements are true:

1. I want two marshmallows.

2. I trust the adult to keep his word.

I agree, but how do I find that special doctor? My bf’s insurance is shit. Every visit to a new doctor costs at least $200. We can’t just trial and error this until we find a good one. He’s likely to run out of money first.

This is why I posted. In hopes of getting some direction toward that doctor without a lot of money going down the drain.

Nope. Yawns are only covered if at work, or somewhere with a fancy dress code. Definitely not when alone.

Stone is a common British weight measuring unit, and this is a bbc article, so… That’s why that happened.

Nah, I don’t think Office Space had a “Jim” character. My bet would be The Office TV show, American version.
