Tbh is just an esophageal ECG with a bit of saline in the blood stream. Nothing surgical.
Hope it finds something relatable to migraine, ED, etc
Fucking great drugs. And they found what they were looking for. Cardiologist will consult with the surgeon but a bit of minor heart surgery might be on the cards in the new year
to put one in?
Ha.
Ha ha.
Just sitting here, watching golf on TV. Bored.

I only got caned at High School, fully deserved each time, actually, one time I opted for it instead of after-school detention.
Only heard rumours the Principal had a 'strap' he used at primary school, even one of the worst kids in school apparently never got the 'strap'
-
I got strapped when I was 11. Teacher was a complete bully, complete fluffybunny actually. I was talking when I shouldn't have been apparently. I was relatively new to the school and sent to wait in the corridor. We were used to the sound of the leather stripping the inner arm off classmates and knew what was going to happen. My arm and hand looked like a cheese grater covered in blood when he finished. To this day I don't know what the sadistic prick had done to the leather.
I did have the pleasure of meeting him again many years later (my early twenties). I was 6'5 by then and 100kg, I reminded him of the incident - he left rapidly without his takeaways. Never wanted to hit someone so much, which he obviously recognised. Typical cowardly bully.
-
somehow i never got hit at school, despite it still being a thing until i left primary school i think. I don't remember too many people who did actually.
-
I recall getting it twice in primary school and thinking it was an unreasonable punishment for such minor transgressions. It so angered me as a child that I wished to bump into the teachers as an adult to revisit it on a more even footing. Never got the opportunity and thankfully such practices no longer exist. I would hospitalise a teacher that did the same to my nieces or nephews.
-
They still did it when I started school but I remember my teacher of that year explaining that it was being fazed out. She was a horrible bitch. Old and nasty. She said that until it was completely outlawed she would be dishing it out because we "all deserved it". I was scared shitless of this woman and watched her deal to my best mate many times with a metre ruler. Oddly I never got hit once.
-
@dogmeat Fuck that is pretty brutal, I do feel for some of the teachers we gave shit. It was like a wounded animal, the kids were quick to notice a weak teacher and the abuse was pretty bad, they were just doing a job. Yeah it seems crazy now to think teachers thought abusing a child with a cane, strap, ruler somehow altered their behaviour. The naughty kids in class never changed and just got more and more punishment.
Unfortunately in that era, the kids that got it at school probably got it worse at home, I remember a kid in my village having his legs broken by his father.
-
It had stopped at school by the time I was going but they still had it for boarders at my school. Only one memorable incident (don't even remember what I got "6 of the best" for). There was two blokes in my year who hadn't had the cane, one was a big bastard and the other was a mate. So me and my best mate ended up picking up our mate and taking him outside the school grounds and ratted ourselves back to our dorm prefect. There was a line of people that night waiting to watch us all go in to see the boarding master, poor mate was already bawling 20 minutes beforehand, we went in grinning. Kids are dicks.
-
Managed to avoid the cane myself thank God but one of my favourite school punishment stories concerned my brother-in-law who was a naughty kid at a pretty shitty school. One sadistic bastard teacher kept a slipper in a biscuit tin in the cupboard and the punishment was a ceremony as well as painful. The offender was made to go to the cupboard and retrieve the biscuit tin, put it on the teacher's desk and then bend over the desk in front of the class and wait while the biscuit tin was opened, the slipper produced with a flourish and then receive the punishment.
Anyway, one night my b-i-l and his mate Shovel broke into the school and burnt the slipper to ashes which they then left in the biscuit tin in the cupboard. They both played up the next day and were called for punishment. When the poor bastard saw his beloved slipper in ashes in the biscuit tin he broke down and sobbed. He was never the same again.
Vengeance was sweet apparently.

Ever watched Curb your enthusiasm?
The episode when Jeff has a heart attack and asks Larry to go to his house while his harridan of a missus is out and get rid of his porn stash. Hilarity ensues. Brilliantly, toe-curlingly funny. So no, delete your own history mate.

Don't be so hasty. You might find something new that you really like.

I could quite easily see you both being keen on "specialist minority interests" online. That is all.

I think you'll find "Brutal Dolphin Amputee Hentai" isn't as rare as you think.
