Ear Piercing Question!

That’s totally normal! It’s scar tissue and it’s nothing to worry about. Go to a tattoo parlor, but not a shady one, a licensed one. They’ll do it with a needle which sounds like it hurts but it’s actually less painful because they do it so quickly and the metal is so sharp it feels like a pinch. Make sure to keep it clean with the ointment they provide and don’t fiddle with it and you’ll be fine.

My experience level: nose piercing, ear piercing, cartilage piercing, and belly button piercing.

My grandma has advanced Alzheimer’s disease, so for my birthday this year, I’m trying to raise awareness for the cause.

Yeah. Been down this road a long time ago. The tough part about them not recognizing you is when they they turn around and ask if you've seen yourself, lately....

That was really hard, I think on my dad more than anyone else.

I’m sorry you went through this. :(

My grandma thought I was a stranger. Soo soo sad

My grandma stopped recognizing who I was almost two years ago :( I’m sorry your grandma had Alzheimer’s too. It is very depressing to see someone close to you go through this.

Does anyone here use an ISP that’s not Verizon, Cox, or Comcast?

Totally agree about Marvel movies @Aria and I’ll give Punisher another chance. I’ve been watching Amazon Prime shows more lately - just finished Carnival Row and loved it. Not a superhero movie but I would recommend you check it out.

@Aria I haven’t seen season 3 of Jessica Jones yet, I didn’t even know about Luke Cage and am now totally bummed because I loved that show, and I couldn’t get into the Punisher. DH loves Lucifer but that’s another show I couldn’t get into.

So? Sign up your city, bourough, colony, yurt and get your friends to do the same. Heck, get your enemies to sign up too. Get the word out on local social networks too. Sign up your children. Sign up your neighbors kids. It's free!

Lol that solves the problem for future Araz but not me currently...

@soco Charlottesville is the closest city to me that has it according to their site and that’s at least 3 hrs away from me 😔

I pay Comcast over $230 a month... yeah it's price fixing. What you do is call up and tell them you're going to cancel or just cancel and suddenly they will offer you the same plan for $100 less a month. Then slowly they will raise your bill until it's back up over $200 and you have to call back up and cancel again. It really works well if you unplug all your cable boxes and drag the into the local office. They'll do anything to keep you online.

I’m getting so tired of having to do this. I did it with Verizon a few times and now it’s happening with Comcast. I even dragged all of my cable boxes to the office too! I even reached out to a friend who works at Comcast. Guess what happend? Nothing! 😩 I really hate all of them.

Anyone here remember Tucows? Well they still exist and are providing cellphone service going by the name Ting. They are also now growing in the Internet/WiFi business under the same name, Ting TV. Google it and signup to have it brought to your town.

I’ll check it out!
