Shit is still bleeding and this happened last night.

might need to get it cauterized. I cut my thumb when working as a cook and had to cauterize it to stop the bleeding.

about this much:

Hmm I didn't think about that. It's not the tip. It's right in the middle of the pad halfway between the nail and the joint. It's not bleeding heavily but enough that the band aid pad is red.

It can stop on its own, but you need thicker gauze and a wrap for it.

Damn brill, are you sure your wife isn't just trying to cash in a life insurance policy on you?

**BaneTheBrawler** · 2015-07-11 17:20

she's taking the "death by a thousand cuts" philosophy a bit literal

Yea then it'll just stop on it's own just need more direct pressure. You can use superglue if it is a cut where you can join the skin back together.

Honestly with how sharp that cutlery set is it could have been a lot worse than it is. One of the knives split my old wooden cutting board.

It's 9:30pm and still 90 degrees outside. The heat index earlier today was 108. Florida strikes again.

My girlfriend and I go to pita pit, and she orders a b.l.t. with pepper jack and onions. What does she get? A pita filled with bacon and pepper jack. Because she didn't say lettuce or tomato they didn't put them in her b.l.t.

I give up. I have no hope for a better world any more.

**Brill Weave** · 2015-07-12 14:09

Ya know I'd kind of be ok with a pita filled with nothing but bacon and pepper jack lol

Been trying to contact my grandmother to notify her of my mother's death. Never picked up, didn't think too much of it because she's old and figured it was just bad luck.

Aunt called me today and notified me of my grandmother's hospitalization. Apparently, she fell and was later found in a dehydrated and delusional state as well as in generally bad shape. Turns out that she has gallstones, which shouldn't be too bad, but apparently the doctors are worried about other unspecified stuff and need to do some more check-ups. As luck would have it, all of this happened on Monday, which is also the day my mother died.

Some weeks, I swear.

**Aksannyi** · 2015-07-12 15:41

Damn dude, that really sucks. I'm sorry for your loss.

**Ksandra** · 2015-07-12 18:44

All I can say is my condolences.

**vagus** · 2015-07-12 19:51

Holy shit. Sorry dude. Brutal

I'm so very sorry.. That is so much to bear in such a short time. My thoughts are with you and your family.

meh, PSTA is only offering me 15k for hitting me w/ one of their busses. After medical/lawyer fees, that means I'm only walking out with 5-7k, which is 1/3rd-1/2ish my student loans. Was hoping to get enough for the two to cancel one another out

That is an offer you don't have to settle if you don't want to. Go for more!
