    Do you have health insurance?

    Holy shit bros they just dropped off the estimate. For 4 days 4 nites an appendectomy and a CT scan the undiscounted rate was $18952, with an 87% discount im out of pocket for $2463. Thats so much better than I could have hoped for. I took a pic for the unbelievers but I guess I cant attach...

    Do you have health insurance?

    After the 87% discount, talked to my surgeon today and it turns out my appendix completely burst by the time he got in there. Probably gonna be in here 5-6 days if all goes well. Im guessing 8-10k out of pocket. But who the fuck knows ive been on dilaudid for 51 hours straight.

    Fringe

    I've been powering through all the seasons the last few weeks now that the first four are up on Netflix. I loved, loved, loved the first four seasons, the interplay between the red and blue universes was very well done and original. I'm about halfway through the last season and Jesus Christ it...

    Prometheus (Alien 0) - 1 Year Later

    Finally got around to watching this yesterday. Thought it was pretty decent. There were a couple groan inducing moments, but overall I don't get the levels of nerd rage direct against this movie. Definitely needs a sequel.

    It's just his style that rubs people the wrong way. Personally, I find it amusing, I lol'ed a few times in the last couple pages. Definitely more entertaining than most Saturdays in the politics thread. I was also amused that I went out to dinner and drinks, got home around eleven and they...

    I hear that bro. Finals week is right around the corner. I've got Genetics/Physics II+lab/Stream Ecology + lab/Capstone Thesis this semester. I've spent about 20 of the last 48 hours with my eyes plastered to a microscope sifting through drift net samples for aquatic insects. Not good times.

    I'm pretty sure you and Mikhail are in complete agreement there. In fact I think Mikhail makes a lot of decent points, but since he's such a pompous aspie and calls everyone retard 5 times in every post(lol) it gets lost and the argument turns into a meaningless battle of semantics.

    Boston Marathon Explosion - Today's Topics: Public Schools

    I don't think Mikhail or I ever stated that they should be at US middle class living standards in 30 years. Just simply that they aren't there yet. I really don't see how pointing out that China still exploits their labor is somehow racist or insulting. I think you should put that racist...

    Last time I checked, Foxconn doesn't employ the entire population of China. Whether or not their worker's suicide rates are high or not is irrelevant. It is funny seeing how easily people get rustled by Mikhail, lol.

    Perhaps its not 17th century levels of shit, but come on man. Are you seriously defending the human rights record of China? Seriously? Because you know a few Chinese exchange students that were fortunate enough to make it over here, they speak for the one BILLION others that weren't? That's...

    Mad Men

    I don't know, Don dealing with an emo teenager in 1969 could be pretty interesting. Look forward to seeing how they handle Woodstock and the seismic shift in pop culture that accompanies it. I'm betting that Peggy will do a much better job at keeping up with the times than Don will.

    I thought it was the Scots that wore kilts? Or are Scots Celtic as well? British Isles ethnic traits and ancestry always confuse me. Irish, Welsh, English, and Scotch, never sure which one goes where.

    Science!! Fucking magnets, how do they work?

    Wow good read. It's nice to see a CERN-level project tackle nuclear fusion instead of the usual obscure crackpots coming out with wild claims of achieving cold fusion. it kind of sucks that it won't be online for another 15 years, but that kind of time scale tells me that they are doing it...

    Fertilizer plant explodes in West, Texas

    Ya, I'm a Texan and while I do love it for the most part, I'll be the first to admit its got more than its share of Jim Jack, put a boot in yer' ass, book learnin' is for faggot-type morons down here. The politicians are mostly awful, they spend more time kissing baby Jesus' ass than doing the...

    Science!! Fucking magnets, how do they work?

    I'm not accusing you of doing this, but it is a huge pet peeve of mine when people use pseudo science to try to make the argument that conscience is energy, energy is never lost, therefore our psychic energy is somehow still floating around in the ether and this is 'proof' of a soul. No, your...

    Wow, just spent the last two hours catching up what's going on in Boston with this thread after a self imposed media blackout all week. Good stuff man, good stuff. Araysar getting maximum rustled by people calling Chechnyans Russian is my favorite part right now. And are there any youtube...

    Science!! Fucking magnets, how do they work?

    So what you are saying is that you don't even bother to vote because it has literally ZERO power since both sides are exactly the same on the horrible meter? Even if one side is dumb and the other side is dumber it's still your obligation to vote less dumb. It's not much insulation, but it's...

    Your Own Photography

    Couple of totally newb, non-artistic, generic outdoor shots I took while canoeing this weekend. Looking back, I probably should have waited a little longer for the sun to break the horizon on the camp shot.
