Can't believe how emo that thread is. Seems like 20 years ago. I can for sure say that the depression and anxiety are quite a lot better now.

I'm 99% sure I have long covid. Not 100% because I didn't get a test because **** that. I got super sick for 2 weeks in december, sneezing and coughing nonstop. Ever since then, I've felt like I just took a shitton of xanax 24/7. It takes me at least 30 minutes to get out of bed every morning. I get home from work and need to take a 1 hour nap if I want to be able to do anything else the rest of the day. It's been a hellish struggle to do a few bodyweight exercises every other day or so.

Also I'm developing some old man health problems. I got the roids, and not the kind that make your muscles bigger. Anyone have experience with solving that issue? The internet is useless and just says to eat more fiber lol. I've never had problems pooping.

Work is ok, I've been at a restaurant in the gold coast hood for 2 years, but I'm planing to quit soon. There's some things I really like about it and some things I really don't. I have my own pastry station in the basement, which I call the Dessert Dungeon. I get some exercise at work running up and down the stairs 20x/day. The glutes are poppin. Unfortunately, the owner is a clueless yuppie, has no idea how to run a restaurant.

Last summer I started climbing. It's fun and a good workout, although I have zero talent for it. I prefer bouldering, much more fun than the rope nonsense. I wanted to do a v4 before I turned 40, but the long covid squashed that dream pretty hard. I've gone climbing like 3x this year and can't do ****, my limbs feel so heavy.

I know of people who have had surgery for them. I guess you could consider that depending on how bad they are.

Have a very close and trusted friend push them back in gently as needed?

That wouldn't solve the problem though, it would just hide it temporarily right? Also why would I need someone else to do it?

I've heard there's surgical procedures. I'm the type of guy who doesn't go to the doctor unless I think I'm dying, so I really want there to be a DIY solution.

I just used OTC stuff and they went down in a few days - tried not to sit so long on the can scrolling (which apparently spreads things out) and that's helped too.

A hidden problem is no problem at all. They really aren't much of a problem anyway unless they really bother you.

Asking a friend to help is just an amusing conversation to have. "Remember when I helped you move your couch? I need you to help me with something."

I can't imagine anyone I know being anything but totally grossed/weirded out by that.

Plus I think my dong could get infected if I pushed it in. Like aren't there tubes or something that connect everything down there?

I got these small training hold things. They're like a hangboard but I don't have anywhere to install a hangboard in my apartment. I'm a noob and I can only hang on 4 fingers for about 5 seconds. Will update if I make any progress.

If it's because of insurance/cost I get that.

If it's just a general dislike of going to the doctor, I get that too, but you should just get over that and go.

I am pretty sure that you are correct in the first paragraph.

I am also pretty sure that your peepee isn't connected to your ass at all, but it has been a while since I took a health class. I'm running a pretty old human body and I'm not really sure if more recent models have extra tubes.

I'm pretty sure it was a reference to an old thread where someone thought that was the case. He's being about as serious as you are. At least I hope so.

I was under that assumption

It was a joke referencing the post which gave n1h his undertitle. Think of it as an homage.

It was funny as a stand alone joke. Reference makes it even funnier

I think you and ABP need to open up your own place where you sell pastries to overweight yuppies who don't have a purpoise in life and need to slam down 500 calorie muffin bombs every day to get through it.

I do make a mean blueberry muffin. One time an old yuppie lady complained that there were TOO MANY blueberries in her muffin. I was like wtf I'll take that as a compliment. Boomer yuppies are the worst kind.

Preparation H suppositories only thing that works

Worse than worst.

Put in my notice at work. I've been there two years and that's enough. I'm sick of working for people who don't know how to run a restaurant. With the skilled labor market the way it is, there's no reason to settle for a jerb I don't like. When I told the owner he has devastated, talking like he might have to just give up on hiring a pastry chef and just start buying everything.

I still have this long covid bullshit. The extreme fatigue seems to come and go in cycles of around 3-5 days now.

Don't have any new jobs lined up. I'll take a few weeks off and then look for something.

There's a show called The Bear on FX that's pretty good. A way too real portrayal of the restaurant life, set in chicago too. Season 2 starts in june I think. There's one scene where a dishwasher makes an announcement to the kitchen to take the labels off the containers before dropping them at the dish station. That's a pretty good summary of my life. I keep telling these lazy savory cooks that it's not cool to have sticky gunky tape residue all over the containers when they come out of the dish machine. But they never listen. FACKING LAZY MILLENIALS. I don't even bother trying to get them to cut the tape instead of ripping it, the basics are hard enough.

Doctor says to me, No one that lives around here gets enough fiber and suggested taking Meta Mucil. I listened and it works wonderful. I take about 10 capsules a day, wasn't really interested in making the liquid form.



You should probably get your Vitamin D checked btw.
