Things I Don't Get

LOLLL An actual ferret this time!!

This one is zoomed close for you to see and it's a lot easier than the other dog t-shirt ones were, but look how weirdly blurry it is. I don't see audio but I'll try the three dots.

Good luck. Sometimes I hit the change image (symbol next to 3 dots) until it's an easier option.

Nope.

The dots take me to Accessibility which takes me to "You need Accessibility Cookies" ????
Then this page but when I put my email it keeps saying Error.

I wish I could get in, so I can register for "preventing abuse".

That sounds like a good deal.

Nigel Farage supporters thinking they're the authority on what is and isn't racist. Pathetic.

how can a (fictional) being with the power to control boundaries- physical AND conceptual, e.g. life and death, day and night, dreams and reality, possibly lose?!

the character in question led a war against very smart moon people experienced in technology and magic 1200 years ago. It's possible she lost on purpose to teach her 'army' a lesson, but the thought experiment is still interesting. With a reality-shattering ability like that, how can anyone lose?

I don't get dental questions.

I went to my dentist bc I get a pain when I drink or eat anything cold.
They did a million xrays.

Then the dentist was asking about the "cold" pain.
She did that thing where she sprayed cold stuff on each tooth to see if it hurt.
"Tell me if it hurts / feels cold"
If I didn't answer within about two seconds she'd blast a tooth and ask again.

I have major sensory issues and I'm literal.
I was looking for pain rather than "I can feel that" and cold rather than "cool".
I got so confused.
I tried to say none of them hurt / felt cold unless it was obvious.

One spot stood out so I thought that was the one.
Everything else - I felt stuff but didn't say anything because it wasn't extreme.


-------

At the end she said people are supposed to feel it and report every tooth ?!
The "bad" tooth is the one that doesn't feel anything because the nerve is dead.
She decided the whole right side of my teeth were possibly dead except the painful one.

Then she tried to decide which one of my "dead" teeth might need a root canal.

Why didn't she just tell me to point out if any felt nothing??
I don't think any of them felt "nothing".


Total cost of visit: Around $1200
Outcome: No idea which tooth or what's wrong

I don't 'get' soup with bits in e.g. lumps of veg, shellfish, rice etc. That isn't a soup, it's a dish or salad.

Soup should be smooth and either creamy or clear. I don't like finding hidden bits in my food, I like it to be smooth or obviously crunchy.
