Yah I've really been thinking. You have so many relationships in this life, and only one or two will last. You go through all the pain and strife, then you turn your back and they're gone so fast. So hold on to the ones who really care. In the end they'll be the only ones there. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I came up with a brilliant plan to duck having to get my ass cheered by a judge, and dealing with the soul crushing amount of work I have to do. Emergency surgery! I'm removing right now from getting my appendix out, will miss the rest of the week, and will not have to see the judge. Couldn't decide if this was a happy post or sad post, because algerting sick and operated on wasn't pleasant.

Sneaky plan, I like it!

In seriousness though I hope you're better soon and your work woes are resolved!

When trashy Canadians are not only impolite (parking in handicap spaces when they aren't supposed to), but then escalating things to the nth degree too.

Seriously now, Rly. YOU NEED TO TELL US WHAT YOU DID! It's been killing me all week wondering what the hell you did.

Did you accidentally have sex with a minor? Did you put some kid through all the walls until you ran out? Did you get drunk and ran streaking down a school football field?

What did you do?!

Strongly suspect that you need to get a bunch of records together yourself to " present a case" to your doctor.

It's something that shouldn't be on you, but if you can get a ton of paperwork together in a giant folder and thump the thing on the desk in front of the doctor or the aides, it makes a difference. It shows visually that you are serious and when you pull out the papers to show you've been going to doctors for years to try and fix this, it can help.

Not a guarantee of success, but I've had luck with thumping books or papers down in negotiations. People trust that more than someone talking.

I thought being impolite was a deportable offence in Canada? Punishment? Being sent to live in the US...

Agree. Bring out the official documents and people will usually stop to reconsider. I have had some success with this myself.

It should be...but sadly we have our share of trailer trash...even in a city (that vid was apparently shot in Toronto). It's funny, when she initially walks up and speaks I'm like "Oh, she seems normal" and then when she gets mad out comes the "Back the fuck up. Back the fuck up off my car!"....and my trash detector alarms start going off.

The funniest part? She went there to get coffee, both of which she lost when she got angry...and instead of just driving away (for her to get in proper trouble for parking there, she would have to BE in the spot when the police roll up) like she should have, she escalates it...so now she has no coffees...AND a possible assault charge.

Boneheaded.

EDIT: Update, the guy who shot the video was asked by the police if he wanted to press charges for assault and he declined saying he didn't want to "grind her into the dirt" but just wanted her to learn a lesson. As a result, the police went and spoke with her and sternly warned her about both the assault and the handicap parking. So she gets off, and maybe that's for the better if I'm honest. She will now think twice about parking in a handi spot again...and she may learn to keep her public temper under control as well.

What's the difference between a trash person and a non-disposable person? Is it chiefly the trailer, or is that an ancillary trait?

No no no. It's bread, or more aptly grains! It's not so much gluten either, it's just modern grains (glyphosate) and the way it processes as sugar too. Remove as much as possible from your diet and you will be healthier...swear to you. I removed about 80% of all grains from my diet and am much healthier.(pizza is a no fly zone)

*I have also stopped taking anti-biotics..I think I am seven+ years free of those too.

Wow amazing what you can learn from the internet. Thanks for the heads up Nico. I'll definitely try to remember the antibiotic one for my baby when he is born.

First world problem, really.... but I'm going to a hen night as Morrigan from Dragon Age and the costume is giving me a headache. I'm sort of creating my own problem in that I'm trying to tone the costume down a bit (I am nowhere near brave enough to wear as little as she does!) so I'm in some sort of no man's land middle ground where clothes do not exist. Hohum.
