Is COVID back in NYC? Wastewater surveillance shows virus is rising. by booboolurker in nycCoronavirus

I would call that a severe case of covid that you had. That sucks.

Do you plan on continuing getting the boosters? It didn't seem to offer much protection, obviously.

Your cholesterol (and cardiac risk, which is what this is all about) is undoubtedly lowered by walking. Your numbers would be even higher if you weren't walking.

Give up walking? That's a horrible idea. Walking is the best exercise. Any benefit you get from a statin will be negated from removing walking from your routine.

It was a novel virus 3 years ago. Young, healthy people are not dying of covid and they're definitely not getting the bivalent vax. Less than 15% of those under 65 got the bivalent vax, which by the way, came out 9 months ago. If you got the bivalent, you are very much in the minority

Teen argument ends with shots fired in Boston by Big_Therm in massachusetts

Right. They'd harm or steal from someone else's family.

I'd rather pay for them to be in jail than to have me or my family harmed by their misdeeds.

That's probably the issue. It's like taking last year's flu shot and expecting it to help you.

Of course it helps. It stops these idiots from shooting others and dealing drugs and stealing things... because they are off the streets. CAn't do those things from behind bars.

Exactly. I doubt, as the poster above speculates, that there are TWO parents working 70 hours a week and raising those kids.

Ok seriously what is the deal with traffic in and around metro Boston lately? by MountainAlive in boston

Tell the parents to put the kids on the bus and stop clogging up the roads with their dropoffs.

Just make sure you add a question mark at the end of a declarative sentence. All the cool kids are doing it.

Wait... you have the option to switch to car and you haven't yet? How much incompetence from the MBTA are you willing to take?

Do you think Worcester needs a form of rent control? Why or why not? by HRJafael in WorcesterMA

Live somewhere else. No one's forcing you to live in those places.

You can't have a nice, updated apartment and cheap rent. You want updates, pay up.

It's amazing how many people don't know this and think you need a balance month to month to have a great credit score.

I’m 26 and after doing my blood work my LDL cholesterol calc is 171 which my doctor said is very high, how serious is this? by Zezimalives in Cholesterol

[–]bb5199 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Why don't you heat something up that you've already cooked when you get home instead of the fast food? Or bring a meal in a lunchbox? No reason you have to do fast food late at night. Make a big meal a 2-3 times a week and you have leftovers for the other nights.

I think the Impossible burger is just a way to eat a burger without meat. It's incredibly processed and still has fat and a good amount of salt.

You said it yourself. Get married and stay married. That alone is a huge way to get ahead.

Max Bemis Hospitalized after manic episode by n0rgan in SayAnything

[–]bb5199 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Did he also write that rant at the end of the new song during a manic episode too? Where is Max's support system? He is spiraling out of control and everyone is just watching the train wreck and trying to profit off of it.

Yes. OP is in MA where all the idiots immediately high tail it to the center or left lane. Even the truckers camp out in the middle for 10s of miles on end.
