The Netherlands. Seriously, the only other time I HAD to use a credit card was for a car rental insurance when abroad, and I ended up not getting it since I was mainly going to be in a big city with great public transportation. For everything else there is either my bank card, PayPal or iDeal (a payment system set up by Dutch banks). If I ever end up outside of Europe tho, I would probably need an actual credit card.

I guess it also helps that I've never been poor and forced to juggle credit cards to pay things off.

I love that thread in the drug forum where some idiots discover a Russian benzo (and call it the juice) that is cheap and works in microgran doses. Thread is full of goons eyeballing doses of mg, obviously failing, and tripping for literally a week or more.

I seriously hope there never was a thread like that for Russia's favorite drug. "The Gang Discovers Krokodil".

Honestly, if not for Steam I probably wouldn't have a credit card either.

I wasn't commenting that you didn't have a credit card but that you wanted to make an account so much you made some sort of virtual card to pay for it

Im pretty sure that never happened. People kept passing around the eyeball story yet no one can dig up the actual post. It was first people who didnt realize it was an expression and thought people were injecting it into their eyeballs, then people believing others were so stupid they didnt realize it was an expression and actually tried it literally.

TCC has enough wild poo poo without adding to the legend.

IIRC several people in the thread talked about eyeballing a dose, then one guy was confused and posted something like "I've never done it that way, do you just pour it into your eye or what?" and everyone started mocking him and the story gradually became that all the TCC goons were injecting drugs into their eyes chasing the ultimate high.

Farewell, good Hunter. May you find your worth in the waking world.

In residency I admitted a young guy to the ICU who appeared overdosed on something we could not figure out. He was in a legit coma for over a week initially on a ventilator requiring quite a bit of life support. We extubated him after a couple days and he just remained in a coma, asleep, breathing on his own and completely unrousable. The toxicologist figures out it was phenazepam. He suddenly one day woke up, got super raged and yanked all his lines out and left AMA. It was... interesting. To say the least. Don’t do that stuff ever my good goons.

I think a goon left their pet chicken (or some other pet? I may be conflating stories) too close to an electric heater and it died.

It was a pet bird, but not a chicken. The chicken part comes from the same mod probating somebody for asking a question about chickens in the chicken thread.

I believe the heater story was like a parakeet type bird. The other half of the story was 'probating people for asking questions about chickens in the chicken thread' that you might be thinking of.

it was less about specifically killing a bird and more that people were sick of their moderating that people latched onto it, I think

A hadouken is the phrase yelled by Ryu and Ken from Capcoms Street Fighter franchise when they perform their trademark fireball move. I hope this helps.

Placing a bird cage beside a heater is not really the same thing as shooting a magic fireball from your hands and the AC DC part is a non sequitur. it's a terrible, useless analogy.

Was this the guy who bridge-burn-quit his lucrative job without warning or consulting anyone to do this, and then his planned route took him through New Mexico and Texas in July and August? And then ignored everyone who said "the only awareness you'll be raising will be that of the coyotes that strew your sun-bleached bones across the prairie"?
