you don't wanna know Barry

So um like a Furry costume?

speaking of this I also realized that I’m scared of furry and human/robot dressing in costume (in pizzaria)

Well, a union suit is a one-piece, full body long underwear for cold weather. A onesie (or a jump suit!) is the same thing, except worn on the outside. I hope that clears it all up. Perhaps we should shift to a less disturbing topic now.

What does the idiom "to sleep with the fishes" even mean? can someone answered me?

What does the idiom "to sleep with the fishes" even mean? can someone answered me?

It's a reference to dumping a dead person in the ocean. It's an old term reference from the mob (Mafia) and other criminals who kill someone, tie weights around the victim's legs and dump the body in the ocean. The weights hold the body down on the bottom to stop it floating up, and the person is allegedly sleeping with the fishes.

The bodies were regularly stabbed in the abdomen to allow gasses out. Gasses were produced by the bacteria in our digestive tract and build up to a point where the body would often float up and be found on the surface. Poking holes in it and tying weights around the legs would stop this from happening.

Giving someone "concrete shoes" or "a pair of concrete shoes" is another term referring to dumping a body in the water. Concrete cinder blocks were put on the victim's feet to hold them on the bottom of the ocean or river.

It was my pm comment about your hot sauce being classified as hazardous, wasn't it???

Haha! Nope. I take pride in my recklessly seasoned sauces.

Ok, so I just got home from Walmart. Ya know the little yellow plastic aisle markers that have a number and letter? Well, I was grabbing a bag of chips off the shelf and the sign fell down. I picked it back up and was trying to put it back up. An employee was standing there and said she'd get it. Then she saw my "injury".

Her: "Oh my God, sir, you're bleeding!".
Me: *looks at arm* "Oh, cool! So I am.".
Her: "Are you ok? Do you need help?".
Me: "Oh yes, call the squad!". /sarcasm
Her: *takes off running*
Me: "Maam!... Maam!... I have a box of Paw Patrol bandaids in my car. I'll be fine.".
Her: "Would you like to file a report?".
Me: "I'm just fine.".
Her: "Are you sure?".

Have things really gotten that bad that this is a cause for concern? It didn't even bleed enough for a drop to form. Until she said something, I was completely unaware of my "injury".

For some that would be worthy of a claim.

GOOD HEAVENS, MAN! It's a wonder you survived.

It's crazy that people would file a claim for that, but I know how it goes in 2020.

This one I should have made a bigger stink about. I called health department, which didn't even show up. Go figure. Local Chinese restaurant. My wife's meal had a live maggot in her food! Yes, a live, still squirming maggot. The owner didn't understand the problem and demanded payment. I didn't have enough middle fingers for that one.

Btw, enjoy your next meal out.

All I’m going to say is from what I’ve heard from Crispii is that juicebox52 is going through personal problems.

I thought he left us...?

 

[PheonixKingZ]

does anyone here wear a adult onesie? I have one and I think its pretty cool I really like it and its very comfortable and warm.

There! Now you got a “Fish Fanatic” title! (It was when you hit 100 posts. )

Have you guys ever had a surgery?
Here's my story;
6 years ago (I was 10) I was having a really bad stomachache at night and threw up every single hour, in a morning my mom took me to the hospital and after the MRI scanning stuff, I was having the "appendix burst" and the appendix is in my back (for some weird reason) and need to have a surgery before the bacterial spread else where in my body
I fainted and woke up in the surgery room and slept again (because of the med thing)

after I woke up I noticed that my surgery wound is still open and it's something called "delayed wound closure"
(need more info on delayed wound cloosure, do you know what it is @Colin_T ?) https://www.google.com/search?q=del...UA6nMBHZ3dB3cQ_AUoAXoECBkQAw&biw=1366&bih=667

after it all ended I'm still have a right stomach pain after I've done the water changes.

(sorry for the bad grammar btw, just wanted to share my story)

Where is it again? Hold up, lemme get my microscope so I can see it...

Seriously though, that’s insane. “Would you like to file a report”? Holy cow...

Have you guys ever had a surgery?

Yup, hated it.

I broke my left middle finger when I was 13. Almost snapped the thing right off:

I broke it on one of those McDonald’s play places. I swung on one of the bars (with the nets strung on it) and when I did, my finger caught the net and it just snapped. I had my full body weight behind it, so I can’t really blame it.

My ring and pinky finger were severely bruised, I’m actually surprised they didn’t break along with it, but I’m very thankful they didn’t.

They had to reset it first of all in the ER, which didn’t work might I add. Then the stupid nurse put the sticky part of a BANDAID on the open finger wound. When I got to the specialist the next day, he was so angry that they had put a bandaid on it. It took 30+ minutes of soaking the finger, and another 5 very painful moments of actually getting it off.

They had to go in there and put a pin in it and trim my nail about 3/4ths of the way back. It took about a year for the nail to grow back completely, and it’s still not normal today:

Let’s just say that was a very painful process that I definitely never want to repeat.

I had to go under twice. Once to put the pin in and once to take the pin out.

I still don’t have full movement back in that finger. Also, when it’s cold outside, I get arthritis in that finger and the ring/pinkie finger

I’m not meaning to pity myself at all, lol. I was just sharing my experience.

(P.S. I bet @Deanasue wouldn’t have put a bandaid on an open wound... )

Hey, those are a delicacy in most parts of the world. It's a wonder he didn't charge you extra. You should be more open minded.
