  1. You need to delete your comment.
  2. Thank you baby Jesus because that 2 inch wide floss job at the dentist would make my gums bleed. I’m sure it has been used as a torture device.
  3. The decision to receive boosters should be individualized. But you should discuss this with a physician that can help you objectively decide. You are also going to need to take recent infections into account when considering timing of boosters. The data on redesigned boosters is hard to collect and process because the vaccine is being developed quickly and rightly so. You cannot extrapolate data on long Covid, etc. until data has been processed. It's disingenuous and bad science to confidently state the newest boosters will definitely do x or y. We can best guess based on past data but sometimes that turns out incorrect. For example, Paxlovid's initial data suggested that not only would it reduce hospitalizations and chance of death but also possibly decrease viral shedding, reduce severity of symptoms and time of illness. With more data, the latter three didn't really pan out. And Paxlovid's strongest data are for those who are Covid naive, whether that is vaccinated or natural immunity. I have a longer conversation with patients and family than previously when considering Paxlovid for patients.
  4. Yep, PT will put a hole in your health savings pretty quickly. HDHP used to be pretty economical and significantly less than traditional plans so the HSA made sense with it. With a little CR thrown in, the Affordable Health Care act made HDHPs cover so many things that the insurers have seen it fit to raise the rates just as much as other plans. They would rather you stay in a narrowed network with tightly controlled cost and authorizations for care.
  5. And the effort and play should be much better even if they were to play Georgia again next week.
  6. If you can get to a HDHP and HSA while young and healthy then do it. Your health care expenses should be low if relatively healthy. You get over 50 yo then you may start to occur big chunks of health care expenses that could make your out of pocket in a HDHP pretty high and start to chip away at the advantages of having that HSA. This is especially true if the monthly cost of the HDHP is close to your cost for a more traditional HMO or PPO type plan.
  7. 2025 supply of visors and Vagisil for Kirby.
  8. Why do people keep reposting her asinine tweet? And there ya go.
  9. Pissed that the 30 points on the dawgs side doesn’t reflect that the Texas defense played pretty well when handed a complete crap sandwich from the offense.
  10. We should combine this thread with the “leave Quinn alone” thread and have a great time.
  11. Many times, many games.
  12. Ewers can’t move any faster mentally.
  13. The DB cushions on that drive were reminiscent of Texas D 3-4 years ago and it didn’t work then either.
  14. Who had a baby with Kathy Bates.
  15. Thiis is very bad
  16. Trying to remember a worse pivotal call like in forever. Thankfully reversed. Kirby didn’t pay enough.
  17. He has potential but who knows when one half of the RB room is out indefinitely. Certainly some of them will be back.
  18. CR dude.
  19. Play calling way better.
  20. D can play better when not on a short field
  21. Wrong thread
  22. It’s like pouring Everclear on an infected wound and then sticking it in a pile of fire ants.
  23. Sark’s minimal of one annual WTF game just happens to be a top 5 SEC team.
  24. Can anyone replace him? Absolutely getting destroyed. Certainly the backup can’t be worse.
