When I was a kid (3 or 4), the Weird Naked Kid in the neighborhood rubbed/smeared an entire jar of peanut butter in his hair. Then tried to “wash” it out with vegetable oil. His mom came to my house to see if my mom could help. She gave the other mom a jug of Gallo and wished her good luck.

Nah, it’s because he’s a soulless asshole who looks like Eddie Munster.

Do it! I work for a bank and won’t move my money.

The surgery scares me and finding that much down time for recovery is an issue. I’ve talked to my on/gyn about it and he recommended a plastic surgeon who specializes in reconstruction.

We do both with our kids - blow out the goop and tissue stuff. Luckily, they both have taken a nosebleed hiatus which will end as soon as they start another growth spurt.

Oh, I think we are talking about the same thing! The long stringy jelly mess is what we were told to blow out. He (the ENT) used clot and we continued to but your explanation tracks with our experiences with both of our kids. Both of our kids have nosebleeds so frequently that they completely unfazed by blood.

We were skeptical too but desperate because our little guy was having so many nosebleeds. It did seem to work.

The clot thing is exactly the opposite of what an ENT told us when we brought our son in for nosebleeds. He eventually had to have both nostrils cauterized. But the ENT told us to have him blow out the clot ASAP when he had a nosebleed. Which was so often his pediatrician tested for clotting disorders and other nasty…

We are preparing to list our house right now. The realtor is coming in a few days to give us a punch list and market analysis. This makes a lot of sense especially for areas with snowy winters - by late spring you can see landscaping and yards and roofs.

Buzzfeed and a few other sources are reporting it as well.

I’ll check it out! Thanks for the tip.

I’ve heard that from a number of my friends who’ve had reductions. I just need to take the plunge, as it were. I think a lot of my shoulder issues are due to my breasts and bras.

I live in MN where ticket “resales” or scalping is legal. MPR (our NPR station) did an investigation into scalping here to see why tickets aren’t available for popular shows. They presented an interesting theory - a large part of the issue is artificial scarcity created by artists who want to sell out shows and charge…

True. But it won’t help the grooves in my shoulders.

Exactly. I’ve been with my husband since 1994. We talked about monogamy straight away. If that’s not for you, don’t be an asshole and lie to your partner.

This is pretty close to the #1 reason I want a boob reduction. So sick of struggling to find work clothes that are appropriate in the boob area (not too tight too deeply cut too gap-y) while not adding an extra ten yards of fabric around my mom tummy.

Same. I know I’ve read about them here but couldn’t name a single song of theirs. So, lucky us?

The twist in your comment is oddly specific.

We’ve used credit unions for years and have had online banking, mobile, and great rates and service. I don’t see any reason to switch to a traditional bank.

If you like pie, go to Iowa the last full week in July. That’s when RAGBRAI rolls across the state and all the church ladies bake homemade pie for us goofy cyclists. They fight it out for best pie on the route.
