    Life of Pi (2012)

    So, what did you think it is? Was the movie real, or a hallucination?

    Les Miserables

    uhm...did you not ever see the musical? Everything they did on screen was how it's depicted in the musical. Crowe did an OK job at the acting, but, they gave him a lead role and he CANNOT SING. Lol @ the landlord. Yeah, you never saw it. ;-p edit: The movie was a little long. But, the...

    The Hobbit

    They were faster. But, your eyes will quickly adjust it. The HFR was spectacular. Not sure why the complaints over it, lol.

    [Manga] One Piece - Spoilers up to the most recent Chapter.

    Yeah, this is interesting. Wonder if Don Flamingo will be the "main boss" of this arc; similar to Enel in Skypiea, Lucci in Enies Lobby, etc. It does make sense. However, Flamingo seems like such a big player to go out of this arc.

    What do you do?

    Nursing student, so nothing right now. Before that, I was a Case Manager at Genentech (pharmaceutical) and earned 30/hr.

    Do you have health insurance?

    It sounds similar to how my student insurance works. You have to pay for it before each semester but there's only one option. I would definitely ask HR if they're deducting money from your pay for insurance. Just seems bizarre unless that's the norm now.

    Men's Fashion

    I'm not trexxy. I think Burberry can be cute in some scenarios -- like scarves that don't look like they've been manufactured out of China. But, I am not paying $200+ for a shirt that doesn't look that good and always has the same print. Manly men? No such thing as a "Fashion for manly men" lol...

    Do you have health insurance?

    Think I'm a little confused here. Are you saying you're getting free insurance through your job? They're not giving you a list of different types of options at the beginning of the year?

    prescient is correct. Pleats are not in and have not been in style for almost a decade. Avoid them at all costs.

    Wii U

    Apparently there's a common problem that if you're connected to the internet while playing games, it will freeze. Some suggestions are: Make sure Wiiverse language is set to English ONLY. Another suggestion is to turn off your internet connection on the WiiU.

    Men's Fashion

    Slim ties are also in now. I'm not sure for how long, but they're in. Another thing is to never wear banker (REGULAR) blazers/suit jackets. Always, if you can, wear slim fitted.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Except Salvatore would be able to pump the book out within a year or two rather than 6-10 years that is GRRM.

    Do you have health insurance?

    Get a plan that has at least a $150,000 limit. You mean you'll be hitting THAT limit within 6 months in terms of medical? I'm on student insurance, but it's effin' great. 80/20 plan with low OOP and low deductible. High annual limit. Before that, I got denied by a private insurer because I...

    Men's Fashion

    General tips of fashion that is in and will most likely always be in: 1) Wear slim fit (European style). If you're unsure what this is, go try on Hugo Boss clothes. Most of their outfits are slim fit. 2) If you don't have an ass, don't wear skinny jeans. They make your ass look even more...

    That's typically all Mongolian BBQ. But, thank you for letting me know...I fucking love Mongolian BBQ.

    [Manga] Naruto (warning: spoilers up to current chapter)

    Looks like she's having a good time holding Naruto's hand but then got a full load of his/kyuubi's chakra. ;o

    South Lake Tahoe

    Too cold on the lake to go on a boat unless you enjoy frigid temperatures. There's a great ski resort around there, though.

    [manga] Everything Else

    Tower of God is orgasmically good. One Piece, Tower of God, Breaker, Naruto, Bleach, and Claymore are the only things I read at the moment. Definitely looking for some suggestions on some new stuff to read.

    Thought it was excellent and loved HFR. My eyes took about ~30 seconds to adjust and then it felt so perfect.

    Top 10 movies of 2012

    The Master was rated #2? Holy shit, no. That was a movie that makes you want to gouge out your eyes out with a rusty spoon and jam a screwdriver through your ears.

    Surgeries and what to expect/ask/consider

    So, the spoiler code is working. If you have a weak stomach, probably not a good idea to see it. Bilateral, quadruple compartment fasciotiomy.

    Chronic Pain

    This is a major problem with clinical trials. People who are in the phase I-III trials need to go in those trials with the mind of, "I'm not going to worry about what drug I may get." -- placebo effect is really fucked up, heh.

    Sad movie moments

    I've had so many dogs in my life and this movie reminded me of a black lab we had for over 17 years who was put to. It has been the only movie where I actually teared up and cried . ;\

    Domestic Violence/Violent Neighbor, what to do?

    Isn't this grounds for breaking the lease? If the leasing office is not going to do something about it, you should be able to break the lease.

    Surgeries and what to expect/ask/consider

    I just had a bilateral fasciotomy on all four compartments. What Stosh suggested is the most accurate. Just an FYI, doctors generally have to be board certified to even practice. I don't think private practices would allow non-board certified doctors (especially surgeons...) practice without...

    Chronic Pain

    Sounds like sinus pressure. When I get those types of headaches, I like to massage my temples pretty deeply. Hurts like a bitch, but it feels good, too. I had chronic pain in my shins and calves which I thought were shin splints...got diagnosed with compartment syndrome. Just had my...

    I bought these for my partner a while ago: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00...ls_o00_s00_i00 Surprisingly enough, Amazon has them listed for $195 but Nordstrom sells them for $279. What a steal, hah.

    Do you have health insurance?

    Okay, lets clear up some things a bit because I used to work in coverage and reimbursement for Genentech, and there's a misconception that people have that make it...all the time. Deductible Co-Pay Co-Insurance Max Out of Pocket Annual Cap Monthly Cap Are all different. When you hit...

    Everquest II

    I haven't played this since Echoes of Faydwer. But, I loved the game. Getting Fabled gear was nuts in some of those raiding zones (both Mistmoore zones, etc.). However, I do not miss fighting the Gods because you would get 100+ people in an area and it would lag like a motherfucker.
