I personally think they’re the dumbest looking things to wear when you’re not doing work. I see people roll into stores and restaurants with their cowboy boots and cringe. The only way I’d wear a pair is for Halloween. But actual farmers i see dont dress like cowboys. It’s always the people who are “country” without the typical cowboy job. IDK. I'd say cowboy boots are pretty common around here for "actual farmers". It really sucks shoveling out a grain bin and getting your shoes full of seeds, also lace up footwear can be kinda dangerous around augers, PTO's and other rotating equipment. My warmest winter boots have have a boa lace which is good from a safety angle but doesn't prevent grain from getting in them. And IDK but I'm not gonna change my footwear to grab lunch lol. 4 hours ago, Jason said: Kaine wasn't actively detrimental, but he didn't bring anything to the campaign.

SilentWorld Posted March 20, 2019 Share Posted March 20, 2019 What DOES someone do for pain if they aren't given opiods? Are there alternatives that are better than Advil/Tylenol/etc? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CitizenVectron Posted March 20, 2019 Share Posted March 20, 2019 I mean, can you not just trust doctors to not prescribe so much? Or are they all owned by their pharma reps? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dodger Posted March 20, 2019 Share Posted March 20, 2019 Seems like there is a middle ground between not giving out opioids for dental appointments and giving them to people in actual serious pain with shattered bones or whatever. the first time I had a root canal over 15 years ago they gave me Vicodin. I could barely work the next couple days. Now you just get ibuprofen 800 which is much more reasonable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only real non-narcotic option is acetaminophen and while that's great for a fever it doesn't really do much for actual pain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But they've been used far too liberally for far too long and we have a disaster on our hands. And trust me, work in my field and you'll see not nearly as many people need them as you think.

CastlevaniaNut18 Posted March 20, 2019 Share Posted March 20, 2019 I literally just got bitched out because the doctor ordered toradol instead of dilaudid on a new patient. Typical drug seeker. Gotta love this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilentWorld Posted March 20, 2019 Share Posted March 20, 2019 I gotta be honest I'd be pretty disappointed if I was injured and the pain meds didn't give me that buzz. I wouldn't complain (probably) because I wouldn't wanna be labeled a drug seeker. But I'd be disappointed. Is toradol as effective at eliminating pain?

CastlevaniaNut18 Posted March 20, 2019 Share Posted March 20, 2019 For certain types of pain, yes. The point is to ease your pain, not get you high. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kamala Harris (D-CA), who “kept innocent men on death row”; Joe Biden, who “voted for the Iraq War”; Sen. Amy Klobuchar (D-MN), who likes to “abuse American workers”; and Sen. Cory Booker (D-NJ), who “invented a drug dealer friend (and voted with Big Pharma).” Get this man on the stage Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
