SCOTD:

I don't have internet at home.

Mr. Blonde · 04-25-2011, 08:51 AM

I'm not entirely surprised given recent events. whatever PC you have at home, you should be able to get a cheap wireless card and feed off of your smartphone's internet connection, no?

Fruitacious B · 04-25-2011, 10:50 AM

SCotD.

I have ringworm.

No. my phone uses the at&t 4G shit. My internet was free for years as I'd just jump on one of the neighbor's with no problem. Just in the last month or so, the last neighbor figured out how to password protect. Now I'm kinda fucked and probably need to consider breaking down and getting it hooked up. So far leaning toward not doing it.

Fruit: eww, get some tinactin or whatever they use for that shit pronto.

I always read that the best way to get rid of ringworm is to swallow a few tapeworms. Tapeworms are great at eating ringworms.

thekremlin · 04-25-2011, 01:10 PM

I've had ringworm several times. Shower using Selson Blue, the anti-dandruff shampoo. Or kill it with bleach if you're a badass.

angry pancake · 04-25-2011, 01:57 PM

Bleach also works with damn everything. Used to douse myself in gallons of clorox when in the Army.

Ringworm is a misleading name, as ringworm is a fungal infection and is not a worm at all.

....but, I could afford to lose some weight, so tapeworm it is.

Saint DH · 04-25-2011, 03:35 PM

I have a fungal infection, too, also known as jock itch. The doctor prescribed me some anti fungal medicine and told me to pick up some lotrimin cream. Don't use Hydro cortisone, fungus loves that shit.

SittinOnDubsWGW · 04-25-2011, 04:11 PM

just use bleach, pussy.

Saint DH · 04-25-2011, 04:13 PM

I'm not putting bleach on my cock and balls.

Instead I'm taking medicine used for vaginal yeast infections.

Orgazmo · 04-25-2011, 04:38 PM

Rather than anti-fungal medicine, I've always heard that ingesting various types of fungi and rubbing them all over the affected areas is the better long-term solution. It'll make the infestation worse in the short-term, but eventually you'll be completely immune to all negative fungi effects, something that I think we're all looking to achieve.

Saint DH · 04-25-2011, 05:13 PM

I'm starting to wonder where you got your medical degree from.

Orgazmo · 04-25-2011, 05:20 PM

If you find your mind wondering about things that simply don't need to be wondered about, alcohol can be a great help. It will ease your unnecessary reservations while allowing you to blindly accept advice that surely has roots in scientific study.

Ironic Mustache · 04-26-2011, 12:42 AM

Bleach is the only thing that works on ringworm within a couple of days. Otherwise it takes weeks before it's no longer contagious and longer for it to go away completely. It's only painful for a few seconds, and even that's not bad.

Fruitacious B · 04-26-2011, 11:34 AM

I'm considering the bleach option.

Am I supposed to submerge the area with it? Because it's just past my armpit, and I don't think there's an angle that could work for that.

Fruitacious B · 04-26-2011, 11:54 AM

I will be doing that today. I've actually had this for over 6 months, but didn't have the balls to look into what it was until the other day...which I suppose is kind of gross, but no one I'm around has gotten it, and it hasn't itched or bothered me at all. It's just, there.

I'll confirm the bleach results as it happens.

That's really gross.

vaga1220 * · 04-26-2011, 01:44 PM

If you're going with the bleach option, just make sure it's actually ringworm. One of my friends, just a few weeks ago, told me he had ringworm and asked for advice on how to kill it. I told him bleach always worked for me. Well the funny thing is, what he really had was the beginnings of staph infection and the bleach made it exponentially worse.

Fruitacious B · 04-26-2011, 01:58 PM

The images I've seen have led me to believe that it is in fact ringworm. I don't think it'll take much to get rid of it, it's been fading away for about two weeks now (I've been showering twice a day to be safe), and I haven't had any negative effects from it. No itching or spreading/growing. My mom snagged some supposedly kickass anti-fungal cream from the nursing home she works at, which I assume should take care of it. I will be pretty pissed if it's a staph infection, but I doubt that it is because staph would've progressed by this point.

I honestly thought is was an old scar for awhile. It took me a minute to even notice it, because it's in a spot that I normally don't investigate very thoroughly.

It freaked me out at first, because I've never really had any sort of medical concerns, but it's covered by my clothing at all times and seems like a pretty simple fix.

SinisterKid · 05-04-2011, 04:57 AM

My last WPPOTD may have been remedied...

My brother gchatted me this morning informing me that the promotion code SHEP100, when entered at checkout, resulted in a completely free order from Vineyard Vines. I'm not sure if any nubblites buy clothes from there, and I'm sure the fact that I do will result in harassment from you all, however, the shit ain't cheap, so I thought I'd give it a try despite doubting it would work. I just got back from work for the day and threw about $500 worth of overpriced preppy clothes in the cart, entered the promotion code, and it worked. The order placed, free of charge, despite having to enter payment information.

I simply do not understand how or why a company would offer a promotion like this, and the only reasonable explanation I can up come w/ is that a disgruntled employee created the promotion and distributed it to friends. I'm telling you it works, but I half expect to be contacted asking for reimbursement.

Oh I posted in this thread because I feel guilty.

DDTempest · 05-04-2011, 07:10 AM

The other day at the convention center I found a Bible laying on the ground. I put it in a urinal.
