Also it's hereditary in males, so me and my son will need to be tested/monitored. That’s a right pisser, but the warning is very good to know. 3 hours ago, Sweet Pete said: Had to have my dog put down on Saturday. Felt like a murderer carrying him into the vet. That is the the exact opposite of reality. I made the mistake once of waiting a few days too long to take an ailing cat in to be put to sleep, and it haunted me for years. It also make it extremely easy just over a year ago to recognize the need to take our aging cat in to be put down because she was clearly in pain…and I feel so much better about stopping the pain for a great pet I spent 16 years with. 9 hours ago, hk blues said: I don't think you can roast anything in them 9 hours ago, Mark Connolly said: Certainly not cheese Actually, just picked up some toaster grilled cheese sandwiches at Costco. 5/10, too flattened and not substantial enough, but acceptable taste and they work when you’re in a hurry…30 seconds in a microwave and then toast medium. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Imagine having a security tag on them and some employee having to come and remove it at self scanner. The same goes for pregnancy tests 3 years ago when I last bought one the young lad working there needed to request assistance in getting the security tag off and it took about 10 minutes. It was probably the only time I’d been rude to someone in a shop before. Which was probably about 8 minutes more than the act itself necessitating the test. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the more confusing when it's a helpline that really doesn't gain anything from annoying the callers. Maybe they used to have an Option Three, but they don't get any calls about chlamydia anymore?
