However, the pharmacy for whatever reason for months has not able to get a hold of said EpiPen. So the doctor prescribes a different EpiPen. And of course insurance won’t cover it and it cost $850 out of pocket.
That's horrible!
I have one because years ago I was stung/bitten by something (I still don't know what it was) and I had a club hand for five days 😅
Which was really great for a 16 year old during the summer1 -
There’s a certain tv ad for a certain automobile that really bugs me.
There is a man and woman couple doing different fun outdoorsy type things and each time the man is a total wuss and the woman is like an outdoorswoman.
Why?
Why does the woman need to be more manly than the man?
It seems like no big deal, a petty thing to be irked by but it’s just one more thing on top of many other social constructs that future generations will regret.
My grandkids will be living in that world so it irks me.3 -

Once again it’s 4 am and once again I can’t get back to sleep. Don’t know if it’s caused by anxiety or recently switching the medication I take to control the anxiety. Either way this is making me miserable and grumpy.1

Why are you calling him old woman? 😡
When I was 17 she hated him so much that when I told her I wanted to marry him she had me locked up in the psychiatric ward of a hospital for a week. 🤬
Now she’s calling him instead of me.
WTF mom?
She got you locked up in a psychiatric ward for a week!? That must have been awful.
It was awful.
I was a very angry young woman.
A phone call from my ex telling me to go along with everything and not be combative and I’d get out sooner.
So I did that.
It was humiliating.
But I got out, faked feeling civilized for a while then moved in with my ex and his mom.
We married 2yrs later.
Managed to stay married 35yrs.
I'm sorry to hear about that, it's one thing being angry and combative but not a reason to be locked away. All things considered, I think you dealt it with it rather well!

What about a woman being outdoorsy is irksome to you? Or is it one of those commercials that just rips on one gender and basically goes "haha you idiot, you can't do anything right 😂" because those ones bother me a bit.
Or! is it just that you prefer traditional gender roles5 -
This teacher says "ammm ammm",
Instead of "um". Driving me kind of crazy.0 -
I completely agree with Honey re: this ad. The guy is made to look so incompetent. Can't they both be good at rock climbing, etc.?ButterMeMuffinz wrote: »honey_honey_12 wrote: »There’s a certain tv ad for a certain automobile that really bugs me.

On another note: it took me 45 minutes to find a parking spot at the airport. What the heck?!
AND the guy in the middle seat next to me is leaning so far over (sleeping) he's almost in my lap. 😑2 -

I have no problem with the woman being “outdoorsy” but fail to see why the man is portrayed as a physical wimp.
Yes, me, myself, personally, in my life,
I prefer the traditional gender roles.2 -

I don't know what commercial you're talking about (I assume it's regional) but those ones bother me too1 -

Ugh, woke up late, the battery died in my activity tracker while I was sleeping, forgot my phone, and the wifi isn't working on my tablet.
I had to sit at my desk to type this!4 -

I will check it out because I am less likely to lose my phone than I am to lose a notebook. If I do an app, then I’m looking for something that will record non-weight workouts as well.
Sorry I was so short. I’m trying to get back to work from my lunch
Eta: I also sent you a private apology, but I never know if those *kitten* go through.0 -

Haha you’re sweet. No need to apologize. I didn’t take it in a negative way. 🤗1 -
Such a common irk but the pain is real ya’ll.
Driving in my community is a test of patience.
The school zones start at 1:45 and continue until 4:15.
Every direction I go from my house there’s a school or a church that is also a school.
Not to mention the damn railroad tracks that I can’t avoid crossing if I want to drive west. 🙄
As more and more people move here it just gets worse.
Ancient people and soccer moms, the absolute worst!
I can be having a perfectly fine day and be pissed by the time I drive to my mom’s 20min away.
I finally had a sticker for my car made:
“Put down the phone
Pull forward
Use your blinkers!”
I’m such a b**** 🤣
