  • Why does it seem people don't seem to understand satire?

    I have used satire sometimes in the last few years & it's been taken seriously. I feel like my way of communicating has disappeared to the point no one remembers it was ever apart of our culture. It was my way of laughing off what I had to work around which I had no control. To make serious things laughable & lighthearted. Now, I feel like I should find a new way of communicating. I had another person expressing the same opinion when I asked them. I don't get it.

  • Why do index fingers on both hands show a big diff on spo2?

    I am having right lung pain to the point they gave me morphine & sent home with vicodin 7.5 . The cat scan shows no blood clot and only one nodule of 16mm. I had masses for past 50 years many rejections and never lung cancer. I have about 40% lung left put together and 02 supplement at 3 24/7. The dr said it might be herd and it shows all my heart is slightly enlarged. I am Leary of the reflux diagnose? Any thoughts. It's weird the low spo2 on the right index with the right lung pain is odd. One dr believes it is lung spasms from all the lung damage because they come and go with asthma like symptoms amd I've never had asthma

  • Anyone concerned about China moving factories here?

    Last week, CNBC expressed concerned about China investing in US. Why would they want to move their factories here? Main issue was we want to buy made in America products. So, now they are buying old factories and will be moving factories here. I mentioned that this will be concerning because it's not like they love to pay well. What is your take on it?

  • Know anything about the Boston bomber's backpack?

    I don't watch that much news because it's so inaccurate. Yet, I did read they arrested three suspects that covered up for the Boston bomber by throwing his backpack away. I thought the two backpacks blew up at the Boston marathon. Did someone say if the two bombs came from one backpack? Just curious. I shouldn't even read about it. I have missed in between explainations.

  • I hate conspiracy theories but can you answer my question?

    do you know the name of the product that gets blood off your clothes without washing them and gentle enough to use on your face body without rinsing. The pictures below show the Boston Terrorist getting out of the boat. He is wearing clear light colored shirt with no stains around the throat. As they put him on the ground, he is wearing dark colored stained tops with blood on clothing. I wanted to look at the pictures because I have been in his condition in ICU and I wouldn't have been able to pick myself up and leave a boat. That is so horribly painful to wear that endotracheal going down your throat that you need to be sedated. I did write a small note to the breathing tech at one time and that almost killed me. How he is communicating is beyond me. The owner of the boat said that he called and said he found a body covered with blood that looked dead in his boat when he uncovered the top but that is no longer the story for some unknown reason. That is when I was interested. Having a shoot out in his condition. I don't believe anything of this crap and I hate conspiracy

  • Why are mean drunks diagnosed bipolar?

    I've heard several say they are only having spurts of anger when they drink. Yet, they have been diagnosed bipolar. The guy in AZ that shot the senator had been reported to have schizophrenia. The first psychiatrist that saw him when he was in jail said he drinked heavily according to all the university and was angry at the government. That psych felt he was angry about political issues and drinked heavily. He didn't see any schizophrenic symptoms. Of course everyone trashed that psychiatrist opinions. I'm just curious.

  • What do you think about legalizing marajuana?

    I know a few that said with marajuana, their bipolar symtoms was more under control. They quit taking it because it's illegal. Shouldn't we be allowed to take what is better for us instead of giving the pharmaceuticals so much money! Many bipolar can't work and cannot afford the medicine. Anyway, it's hard to get a job if you are bipolar these days.

  • Will we ever face reality?

    In 1984, I could see we were in debt, big defense, giving arms and chemical weapons to Iraq while selling arms to Iran. Using the funds from Iran to fund the Nicarargua war. Claiming to be too broke to keep the mental institutions funded and letting patients out on the streets. I stood in the mid of our city feeding the mentally ill homeless. I was told I would be fined because I didn't have a health permit to make food for the public. I stood around looking as cars going by and no one was aware. They were busy spending money, into sports, and having fun. If you mentioned it; you were anti-American or a worry wort. Get a life!! Stop worrying!! Now, I see us wanting Iraq to appreciate what we did. As O'Reilly stated "After all we did for these people." Tell me what did we do? Haliburton went to the North of Afghanistan and layed down pipe. After the war started, Haliburton layed the pipes down through Afghanistan and our oil pumps freely out to the Persian Gulf. We killed a Heinous Dictator in Iraq while opening a doorway for the Al Queda to enter. Now, we feel unappreciated. What did we do? When we find out why more soldiers committed suicide then fatalities; we will know. These people didn't even appreciate it. I love my country and I want to save it. Anti-American is when you remain loyal to a party and not look at reality. Call me Anti-American, I want evil to come to the service and quit destroying this nation. I woke up in the 80s and was cut down when I spoke. Treated like anti-American. The same as I am treated now.

  • How do they intend to cut funds on Medicare & Social Security?

    Are they treating everyone the same? Or, they treating the ones that paid fica in better than the ones that didn't? Do they treat the ones that collect after becoming American citizens and live on it in a cheaper country they originated differently? Do they not discriminate and we all pay the price equally? Anyone seen the desires of either party that will be considered?

  • Can we discuss guns or males who have issues?

    You can't make this stuff up! If it's not guns, we need to find out the issues with these young guys. Mental illness of this kind is not segregated. so, therefore there is an issue ignored. No mental illness has separate symptoms for a particular group. YOU CAN'T MAKE THIS STUFF UP!

  • Why doesn't the FDA regulate medical marajuana?

    I take a pain killer that may cause a stroke. I really hate taking it but after 4 days of screaming I grab it. The pain goes away. I'm near my death; why should I have to endure that. Stop and think about it. What if arthritis medicine was allowed in Colorado but not in your state? They are coming out with a synthetic pharmaceutical drug using thc without the high. I bet that cost a fortune of research. How much are you going to be paying for that medication? We just sit back and do nothing. I quess by the time it clicks how outrageous it is; we are sitting in their death beds just like I am. Screaming with pain 4 days then taking some type of dangerous pill.

  • who will stop the mentally ill witch hunt?

    There is a big elephant in the room that everyone walks around. These are undeprived young selfish males. no mental illness that has those symptoms. No mental illness affects young males differently. Take away guns from mentally ill but contine to give them to young males of prominent backgrounds. Why? discrimination. The disease may stem from being never taught selfless compassion. Charity work monthly added to a school cirrculum should be considered. Adding them to the mentally ill is a witch hunt. There is no mentally ill with different symptoms for young undeprived males.

  • why does mental illness effect white men differently?

    Millions of all races are bipolar or schizophrenic. They secretly work at jobs or get found out and stay home on disability. They carry the scars of what mass killers do on their backs with their mental illness the culprit. Yet, none of them would do those things that mass killers do. So why is it these diseases do this to these white men? Why are they different?

  • When did they start putting Yahweh in the Bibles?

    I have read the KJV Bible all my life and I love that Bible above all other. I had a fight with my Aunt over Yahweh is not in it. I finally proved it to her. I have read the Bible. My father and I discussed it frequently. When did Yahweh become a popular name and start being used. I went to so many Christian Churchs as a child because we often moved. No one used the term Yahweh in any of the churchs I went.
