    @So It Goes

    I know one of the investigators on that case. She doesn't talk about work very much, but one day a few years ago she called me up and insisted that I buy her a drink....

    With antibody tests...my sister in law has lost her shit over TB tests. Won't be in the same room as the family unless we all get a TB test and show the paperwork that it's negative.

    She lives in the fucking south...yet refuses to believe that about half the people she sees every day would have a positive skin test.

    Wish I could go into more details about just how fucked her and my brother and law are with that. It's definitely a story.

    what you do is shave off a large strip of magnesium metal, press it directly against the skin, and submerge it in water

    My dog growing up had chronic lyme. His back legs would stop working every once in a while so his treat seeking behavior was to stand up with with front paws, then dip his head down until his butt and useless legs were raised up in the air and just walk around like that.

    It got him so many treats.

    I grew up in the country at the height of the Lyme Disease panic. ticks were a big scare thing

    I grew up in northwest CT and actually got lyme disease. (#oneupsmanship) These days it's no big deal. You spot the bite or the symptoms, you take doxycycline for a while, you're all set. It was only a big problem when doctors had no idea what the fuck was going on and let it run unchecked for years, at which point there was permanent neurological damage.

    there are a number of people for whom lyme disease is part of the chronic pain/ fibromyalgia spectrum of "i feel like something's chronically wrong with me but can't find a doctor to agree to an actual diagnosis"

    Now wait, lyme disease can be detected through blood samples.

    The test isn't that great. It looks for certain antibodies and is often inconclusive. Which just fuels the fire for hypochondriacs looking for something concrete.

    god, antibody tests are terrible in general

    in 100 years we're going to look back and go, "man, they used antibody tests in 2013? i bet they believed in phrenology, too"

    i'm just gonna go ahead and assume every inexplicable recovery is the result of a time-traveling doctor

    the suicide machines first album, destruction by definition, was amazing and had a sort of post-ska reggae feel

    like if operation ivy had grown up and learned how to play their instruments and write good songs

    then everything they released after that was utter shit from a butt

    I vaguely remember the Suicide Machines, think I even went to a show of theirs maybe around 99?

    They were never close to better than OpIvy!!! >:o

    to fight consumerism I will now only consume awful things like Jeff Foxworthy stand up, smooth jazz music, and Kraft mac and cheese

    i will pirate the git er dun guy's shows and run them on loop as a webcast

    Larry the Cable guy has about 95% of his audience fooled into thinking that's what he's really like.

    Dude is brilliant and an excellent showman.
    Convincing idiots doesn't require excellent showmanship. These are the same people who probably think Colbert isn't joking.

    I guess. I was watching one of his shows a while back and, besides being legitimately funny, there was this moment...


    He was saying something self-deprecating and I caught this glimmer in his eye, and I realized that the dude is up there laughing at the people who are laughing at his character. I realized that he is fucking with the audience in his act, and suddenly I saw evidence of it all over his show. The timing, some of the joke constructions, some of the concept he sets up...

    Dude is smart and he is mocking his audience at least half the time. It made the show even better!

    man im not sure if that makes him any better to me

    maybe worse

    like, going to working class southern audiences and reinforcing their prejudices and sense of grievance in your show is a pretty bad thing

    but doing the same thing, only ironically?

    just ugh

    That is really not what his show is about...

    You seem not to like any things today!

    larry the cable guy and the music of the 90s are my white whales

    All of these derp bands are such red herrings. Rock music was pointless through the 90s.

    The decade that produced no u turn records, metalheadz, suburban base, schematic, drop bass network, etc etc etc

    i liked a lot of 90's music

    although on talking with music nerds on the internet about the 90's i came to the realization that during the 90's i mostly listened to Canadian bands that most people outside Canada have never heard of and certainly hadn't heard of in the 90's

    so that's weird
