That still happens, you be surprised how many light bulbs need to be surgically removed for both men and women in a given year.

#20 is mind blowing.

posted to lighten the mood of the thread up.

I've reached my limit of seeing objects in holes for the day but thanks.

These aren't the prolapse photos you normally enjoy though. Just X-rays.
My coworker's girlfriend is an PA at a local hospital in SA. She sent an X Ray of a guy with a cucumber stuck...well, you get the picture.

Thing was, a large part of the vine was still attached, along with a flower. The first 3 PAs had to be taken out of the room when they saw a yellow flower poking out. They couldn't stop laughing.

She sent my coworker the X Ray and the story, we couldn't stop laughing that day.
That's actually quite illegal for her to do.

That's why I didn't say which hospital, who she is, or anything other than the X Ray, and that she is a PA.

I read an article a few months ago about some guy in Australia who got a fork stuck in his....appendage. He had to go to hospital to have it removed. Somehow his x-ray made it to the media. Poor guy.

Glad I'm told what to think by liberals. It is nice not having to have an opinion.
They are always told what to think, it is second nature to them.

They are amazed (and jealous) at the ability to think for oneself, but they were told not to like it, so they don't.

Sorry this so far back in the discussion, but I simply cannot ignore typical conservative deflection. Come on man try some original thought.
You must be new here.

If you have been here for a while, you would have seen that the typical liberal poster here are just parrots of the DNC.

Their words is just words, no thought behind it. When asked why they think of those things, they just deflect the question by personally attacking the questioner.

Don't believe me? Here you go
a.) In what way is that even remotely parroting anything that any politician has said?

b.) You are cowardly enough to refuse to answer a simple direct question, craven enough to whine to a mod when I called you on it, and then have the false chutzpah to draw attention back to your usual dodging when trying to claim that "no, I don't dodge, all those filthy liberals dodge"? Seriously, are you brain-damaged?

And.... pivoting back to the case by linking to a recent article on the subject.

Hobby Lobby Invests In Abortion Pill Manufacturers - the Huffington Post.

Quote:
Mother Jones reported on Tuesday that the company's retirement plan has invested millions of dollars in the manufacturers of emergency contraception and drugs used to induce abortions.

Hobby Lobby's 401(k) employee retirement plan holds $73 million in mutual funds that invest in multiple pharmaceutical companies that produce emergency contraceptive pills, intrauterine devices, and abortion-inducing medications.
(full disclosure: the Huffington Post and Mother Jones are left of center publications.)

Today, no mater what your ethics are, you can find an ethical mutual fund, or several dozen, that will match yours. I know for a fact that there are Christian ethical mutuals out there that do not invest in gambling, alcohol, or any company that has anything to do with any form of abortion.

well I guess that answers that! Hobby Lobby is just using the platform of religious freedom to circumnavigate government regulations. Since obviously its not a moral or ethical issue when they're investing in multiple pharmaceuticals that produce emergency contraceptive pills.

There is a word for this, I believe it may be.. COLLUSION.

edit: tldr: they're against providing discounted prices (esp. due to government regulations) for a product they want their employees and the general public to pay full price for since it enhances their bottom line.

There's a more colloquial word: DUH.
