I live in the US, had two kids 20 years ago, have been an RN for 20 years - and I never heard of this. When I went to the dentist for a root canal and asked for nitrous, I felt like I was being judged for drug-seeking. So to find out this has been approved by the FDA??

Smallpox inoculation jet. I remember lining up in school and being terrified. But we all did it. It was not an option.

What about taking antiretrovirals prophylactically? Is that done by the performers?

The other day I became obsessed with researching smallpox. That disease killed over 300 milion people inthe 20th century. Now it is eradicated from the globe because of the wonders of vaccines.

To the person who has kitty litter shipped...really? First of all, you spend money for your cat to take a dump? Pretty sure they can do that for free. And you are asking your poor mailman to waste his back muscles every day to haul your free Amazon kitty litter?

What makes it even worse is that the worm is FEEDING itself off of his FACE!

Sheets/bedding.

Nice pictures! I use cloth napkins, hand towels and rags for almost everything. Paper towels should not be used for drying clean hands, people. What a waste of money and resources.

I've never heard it called a hiccup. It's like how you pronounce "uh oh".

My pet peeve: pronouncing centimeter like 'sauntimeter'. Pretentious midwives do this.

Correct: Lackadaisical

I can't believe the dog is "under observation". The first time a dog bites a human, it should be put down. No second chances. And I say this as a person whose had dogs my whole life.

Numbers. All I can say at this point is that one of my most miserable moments in my life was watching a Cal/Stanford game at UC stadium. Talk about cramped, and I'm a small woman. Never again. I think I'll take the Karl Pilkington view of life at this point. What a bother.

I'm surprised you would say that. I live in Hawaii, which for climate reasons does not play hockey, and have a good friend here who plans his life around the hockey schedule. AND he lives on a boat.

Yeah, but, did you see that stadium? More packed than the Super Bowl!

If it was hijacked /sabotaged, why is no one claiming responsibility?

No, it was always funny. The variety and weirdness of the inserted items, the stories they would tell, the attempts to try to get the items out - endlessly amusing. Like apple dude. We had to go to labor and delivery for forceps. So imagine this guy on all fours, with two women behind him, using forceps to try to…
