I’m still trying to figure out why, after you visit the eye doctor, and they put the drops in your eyes to dilate your pupils, and you can’t see shit, but they let you get in your car and drive yourself home.

Mine requires I have someone else with me to drive me home.

Hahahaha...I have always thought that thing about the dilating drops was kind of funny too.

But it is like this mask wearing crap.

There was a California town that was thinking of reopening beaches that had been closed due to Covid, and they made rules like "you can walk around without a mask, but if you sit down and stay in one place, you have to wear a mask"!

Okay.

Then restaurants said that you have to wear a mask while you walk around going to your table or the bathroom, but...if you sit down, you can take your mask off! Even while there are people standing in line three feet away from you who have to wear their masks!

It is all BS. All of that. The virus is real and it is deadly to certain people, but...the response to it has been a giant goat rodeo of a hoax.

I thought this video was hilarious:

"Mine requires I have someone else with me to drive me home."

Haven't come across that yet. Years ago when I had to have a gastroscopy or colonoscopy, I'd drive my car, and have my youngest son drive his car in, so he could come up while I was being admitted, then he'd leave and go back home until they called him to tell him I was ready to leave. He'd come back in, let them know he was there, we'd leave together. I'd get in my car and go get something to eat because I was starving, and he'd go back home. Now he lives in Indiana, so I can't do that anymore. I now have to have my oldest son accompany me, which means him having to come in the night before (he lives almost two hours away), stay overnight here, which means he has to take the day off from work, drive me to the center, then take me back home, so he can get back home to feed his cat, and give her medication, and return to work the next day. My doctor would at least do both procedures at the same time as long as I was due for them. My last procedures were the end of June, and it was the last time I'll have to have a colonoscopy. He said we could do the Cologuard tests as long as no problems appear.
