    Mom has ovarian cancer

    My mom went in for a hysterectomy a couple weeks ago because she had a giant mass in there. Surgery went well and they took biopsies of some lymph nodes and all came back negative and I thought she was in the clear, but last night she stopped by to tell me that they diagnosed her with stage 1C3...

    Know what sucks?

    Meeting a girl at work, getting to know her, finding out you and her are basically the same person, have the same likes, same thoughts, same experiences... having her be recently divorced to a dickhead husband, knowing she's not looking for another relationship so soon... and still not being...

    ****ing back pain

    I used to have a Tuft and Needle mattress and I noticed that I woke up with total body aches every morning. I dumped two grand on a new Helix mattress and the same **** is starting to happen. This bed is firmer than my old bed, so what the **** do I have to do to wake up not in excruciating pain...

    People have such low self esteem

    One of the women at work has three kids and I had the opportunity to make their Christmas pretty good this year. What does her husband say to her? "Who does that? Do you have a thing for him? Are you sleeping with him?" It's sad to me that gestures of kindness means someone is sleeping with...

    Cat not doing well

    My cat of 13 years isn't doing well and may have lymphoma. She stopped eating and lost a pound seemingly overnight, since then I'd had a bunch of tests run on her and taken her to three different clinics. She's been eating better and has an appetite again, but the results of the biopsy they did...

    Broke my DSLR

    Since the photography forum seems dead, I figured I'd post here. I broke my ancient Canon XSi last night and have been out of the loop for quite some time regarding photography. I was never super into it, more just understood how it works and had a couple kit lenses. Now I see mirrorless...

    HE washers without an agitator are stupid

    BKoTfa1JB_M How the **** does this clean clothing? I've had this thing for a few years and I still can't understand how this is as good as an agitator. Maybe it gets a little tougher later in the cycle, but ****.

    Does anyone else miss Fight Night?

    The UFC games suck. So does EA for not having any new boxing games.

    Forgot password feature does nothing

    The password I've been using for years apparently isn't correct anymore and the "Forgot your password" feature does nothing. It says it sends an email and it never does, I've checked every single folder in my account. Can it be fixed so it actually sends an email?

    YoutubeTV Jacks Prices 30%

    Just got notification that now it's going to cost $65. Looks like I'll be looking into a new service or just give up on TV altogether. I signed up a little more than a year ago and they're pulling the same **** cable companies do, after a year it's gone from $40 to 65 bucks. Sucks because I...

    Computer security experts needed

    I'm in IT but I am not well versed in security. My sister has a stalker right now who is basically making social media pages and harassing her everywhere online, posting that her husband isn't the father of their son and tagging me and other family members in it. It's threatening their...

    Why are there no good SP games anymore?

    HalfLife 2. Fallout series. RDR. Original Far Cry. I want some kind of SP mode that has a decent story and good gameplay, why is everything multiplayer these days?

    Core 1 and Core 2 tests

    I've been in IT for awhile but never bothered to get my certifications. My new job requires all system techs to get certified, which is good. I guess I'm just looking for anyone who has taken these and any pointers they may have, so far I'm going through the Professor Messer videos and have...

    Bat in the house with a cat

    I wish Ozzie were still around for questions like this. I took my cat to the vet recently and set up an appointment to get her a rabies shot. They used the example about a bat getting in the house and I kind of laughed it off, I've never had that happen. I decided to set it up anyway since my...

    Talk to me about ductless wall cooling

    These things: https://ductless.alpinehomeair.com/getstarted/ Until I buy another house I am stuck in this shithole with shitty ****ing horizontal windows from the 1950s. In order to get my bedroom cool I have to rig a normal window AC unit somehow and every year it gets more annoying, not to...
