What REALLY grinds your gears?

I'm pretty upset about Southwest being raided by private equity - been a loyal Southwest customer for almost 10 years now and I loved them because I took full advantage of their bags policy.

First they got rid of free seats and I thought that would be the end of it but now that 2 free checked bags are dead I probably won't be returning after my flight to Chicago next month. Their service has declined and now there's no financial benefit to sticking with them.

RIP to one of the last customer friendly companies out there.

Dang, that's a big one. Definitely a trickier spot than mine.

Yeah, I'm definitely looking forward to having it taken care of. Just going to a doctor always makes me nervous even if I know what is likely happening.

Nothing ever gets better for actual customers now. Never a benefit. Usually pay more for less.

Picking between a male and female doctor is always tricky. The assistant was a cute girl then the doctor comes in and she's a very attractive woman. And my first time meeting them, I've having them look at essentially a giant neck pimple. Man, that was not cool lol (not that I had a shot with them, but still).

But in general, I think I'm more comfortable talking to a woman doctor.

Life's decisions...

HA! I go to my dermatologist at a "learning hospital". My doc says, "Is it OK if the interns come in?"

In come 4-5 UVA students in their 20s watching me naked while my dermatologist grabs my business and moves it side to side looking for skin cancer. Good times.

Man, you have some balls (pun intended). That's wild. That's cool you're OK with that. They need people like you to learn.

Note - I feel like a huge pussy now lololol. It's much harder to move one of those side to side.

Note2 - You can't come in here spitting comedic gold and then just go disappear again. We need more TMC posts!



Yes I do.

And hey, it's all about getting old... had my fourth colonoscopy today during that snow storm. Showed up and I'm like SOMEONE IS GOING IN MY ASS.

Well, you do have:

I like big (_|_)s

As a tagline. That checks out.

LOL, good luck with that. I didn't have the luxury, had to call like 5 different dermatologists to find one that didn't have a 3 month waiting list just to see a doctor. Had to go with this young kid who looked barely out of med school. But he did a solid job so no complaints.

Also, a TMC sighting?

Charleston is definitely a health-care hub. I called Monday morning and got an appointment for today. It was available because of a cancel, but even still, there apparently wasn't a long waiting list (assumingly because there are a lot of dermatologists here). Sucks you had to go through the ringer for an appointment.

Apparently we can rope in TMC with healthcare stories. We need other people to pitch in here, can't just be Mooby and me.

HAHAH! Was posting a decent amount during the year. My apathy was off the charts before this season. I was here all the time, just didn't post very often or at all. Nice to finally have some damn hope.

I caught a bit of the whole Amazon packaging fiasco, and I'm glad my wife can't see this, but her Amazon ordering drives me crazy. She'll order 20 things, return 18 of them and then I get, "Heeey, can you help me pack all this up?"

Rage.

Not only that, it makes it really hard to figure out finances when you have like $500 charges from Amazon that you're not sure if it will stick because she keeps the stuff or not. People have everyone by the balls with these mail order clothing things... Stitch Fix can burn in hell.

In regards to football, definitely lol. Of course the Commies would finally get good right when everything else is going to shit.

Also points for the SP reference - I introduced my lady to that episode a few months ago and its her favorite episode by far.
