If someone were to make a Bowsette gang tag, what text or gang name would it have on it? Just... hypothetically.

I wonder how kirbies reproduce. Does Kirby have parents? Does one just inhale the other and then use a special ability to create more? Is Kirby actually an eternal being responsible for the creation of the universe, which he/she/they will at some point destroy by totally inhaling it and reusing said ability to recreate it? I have so many questions yet so few brain cells :thunk:

Why the gently caress does it cost $1700 out of pocket to get wisdom teeth removed when the procedure is described as taking about 15 minutes per tooth

Why the hell are there so many people around my area that take my insurance to do the surgery but won't operate on me because I'm 28 and they don't operate on people older than 25


I'm mad because I went to the emergency dental surgeon today under the impression that they'd at least be able to do something with my lower left wisdom tooth since it's hardly even something you can call a tooth anymore and is pretty much just rotted shards among inflamed gums and the pain is bad enough that I function even less than usual. Then there's this issue with the car water pump breaking down and that's gonna cost anywhere between $800 to $1500 to fix and we're having trouble even finding a mechanic willing to do that job because they've all been pretty much saying "ehhhh we don't wanna do that job, find someone else" so we've got a car that can't run far or else it'll overheat and me in massive pain and the closest people who can taken my insurance are 2 hours away. So either we get the car fixed and I spend an additional month or two in agony or I get the surgery done as soon as possible and put us into massive debt while we still don't have a working car because we can't find a loving mechanic who'll do the damned work.

I'm mad, games chat thread. I'm mad. Sorry to vent in here yet again because I already know I piss people off in here but this place is one of the few I feel comfortable venting in and just... there's so much annoying and frustrating poo poo happening right now and it is completely ridiculous that I need to choose between paying for the car to be repaired or paying for me to not be in pain from wisdom teeth and that both have the added issue of having trouble finding a professional because all of the local ones keep saying "oh yeah that's something we know how to do but we're not gonna do it"

Weird, they're publishing the Horizon PC version under the PlayStation Mobile brand. Someone should fix that.

As for Tony Hawk, who even has the license at this point? Activision ditched it after the really lovely THPS5.

aka Activision rushed one more game out right before they lost the license.

From what I looked up, it is an annoying job. 2002 pt cruiser, water pump needs replaced. The part is only a couple hundred bucks at most but the labor is the rest of the money for what google says is about 3 to 4 hours of work that includes but isn't limited to having to get under the hood, disconnect various pieces from under the hood in order to take out the water pump, and then having to plug it in and place everything else back in. Even KCB's mechanic acquaintance is all like "nah I'm not messing with that" and our regular mechanics were saying poo poo like "we don't mess with anything that involves having to disconnect the air conditioning"

e: not that we could do the work ourselves anyway. No garage and no driveway and we're doubtful that our neighbors would be thrilled to have someone doing automotive work using on-street parking just outside their house.

kirby came from the stars

many consider meta knight to be another kirb but perhaps this will never be truly confirmed

star allies did intimate that kirby is also an eldritch abomination like so many final bosses in the series but simply chose to be good instead of horrific

stuff about teeth

I had a cavity under a filling, and my mother passed away literally the day before the nerves decided to say gently caress YOU and become the most painful thing ever. Everyone I went to was "booked up" and told me to take aspirin for a week till they could see me. I couldn't last another hour before I either ripped my jaw off or tried the tie a tooth to a door trick or just grabbing some pliers. I had to loving BEG to see someone and had to tell them my mom just loving died.

Suddenly everyone had openings.

The doctor asked me what I wanted to do and was pretty annoyed he had to see me. I dunno! Pull it out or something! It loving hurts and I'm losing my mind! And he's like.. okay. It's going to be a huge gap in your mouth but I can do that. I'm thinking what the gently caress and just said "What would you do if it were you?" and then he went on explaining I needed a root canal and a crown and the crown would be enamel so you couldn't tell. I was like gently caress! then do that! Why do I have to do your job for you! loving rear end in a top hat.

So he cleaned out the cavity to where it wasn't hurting, and the next day I had a root canal and a temp crown. Then a crown a week later.

I worked for a tech company that serviced dental clinics for two years. 1. Half of them are assholes, the other half are saints. No inbetweens. 2. They make more money than god. 3. 90% of them are the stingiest motherfuckers ever.

Glad I could contribute to tooth frustration chat. I hope it works out. Tell them your mom just died.

when Kirby eats someone and absorbs their power he also absorbs their conciousness, an amalgam mind like this trends toward a peaceful state as it possesses an unfathomable understanding of the other.

:( cars are such a pain and money sink but our rad society basically mandates their use unless you live in one of like five cities, at least for the us. i hope you're able to work something out!

I can do tire changes and battery swaps myself at least, except my current car requires you to remove the entire front left wheel to get access to the battery and gently caress offffff

It's frustrating that I've had 3 different dentists look at my xrays, see the worst tooth has come in sideways, and said "yeah, I can't do anything about that, it's sideways, you'll want to be sedated before that gets removed."

At this point I wouldn't be surprised if whatever infection thing going on kills me and I end up being the first goon to die from being unable to get his damned wisdom tooth removed

maybe the dentists in hawaii don't give a poo poo but all my bottom wisdoms came in sideways and the specialist was like
"yeah sure i can do that, you want sleep dentistry or you just want the novocaine"
"just the novocaine please"
"hey it's your funeral"

I got one erupting wisdom tooth removed but the other one my dentist said "we could extract it here but there is a small chance you could lose some of your sense of taste and sensation in your mouth" and the oral surgeon he referred me to wanted to charge 1000 dollars after insurance so I didn't do anything with it :shrug:

You're literally asking me to ride out having a cratering infection in my gum that gives me pain anywhere from 1 to 5 between the tooth, the gums, my ear, and my head.
