The return of the "How are you today?" thread

We even have a game where you hit the singer with dildos :lol:
I want it. :kickass:
No offense, but the song is absolutely horrendous and that guy's terribly off-key now and then and his hairstyle killed my sight. :erk: :lol:
I absolutely loved the Molitva thing you guys had a couple of years ago, but the one this year is terrible beyond comprehension. :lol:

Also @sleepwalker/vitorias chain-reply-thing, I haven't seen anything similar since..ehh..the Nightwish forum. :D:D:D:D
 
I have a doctors appointment today, and I've not been since I was 18, or maybe 19.
I have no reason for it, but I fucking hate the doctor and I'm scared shitless shes going to point out some random thing wrong with me, and I'll have like 3 months to live or some shit like that :ill:
 
Holy shit, these guys were supporting Viatrophy when I saw them on Sunday, their set was pretty good yeah but the sound can't have been great as I didn't realise how totally fucking epic they are. Shit sounds like Dimmu Borgir + Wintersun http://www.myspace.com/tracesmetal

Can't believe where I live actually has some pretty decent metal bands :p
The music is pretty damn good but I think the guitarsound could need some improvement. Going to keep an eye on this band though. In The Wake Of What Has Perished is an awesome song. Cheers!
Awesome album art as well btw.
 
I go to the doctor occasionally... my mother's not 100% 'in working condition' :p, so my every visit to the doctor costs me 1 euro and 3 cents. That's 1,3 US dollars :)

I don't go constantly, because I'm never sick, I'm going because I don't go. Its free for me, no matter what my, or my families medical condition may be.

<3 Canada
 
Damn, so fucking jealous. I have to pay $104 a month for my health insurance here. :erk:
Well to be fair if you're actually sick and don't have a good doctor it's fucking the worse piece of shit system here. And well, I guess if you don't have a doctor you're fucked anyways but Canada is free doctor's visits but to get surgery or a referal to see a specialist is near fucking impossible (I guess depending on where you live but in my experience it has always been that way, same for my friends "Oh you need to see a dermatologist, here's your appointment in 6 months.") My girlfriend has a nerve disorder and it's awful, none of her drugs are covered and the doctor only sees her like once every 2.5-3 months plus she had to wait like 5 to see him the first time.

But yeah, we also don't cover dental work which is fucking bullshit because your health is effected by your teeth. I mean cosmetic shit aside, of course, but root canals and all that should be covered since they are like $1900 a piece for the procedure+crown.

I wonder if it's better than our healthcare. We like to pretend it's awesome here but if you're really sick or need ongoing care (not just quick check ups, etc) then it's pretty shit tier. At least in the States if you pay for it you get decent service I'm sure.

If I'm not feeling well I can get a check-up on the same day at a local GP but I'd have to ring before 9am. Therefore its not too bad for check-ups but I know in Hospitals there is a lot of waiting around. My cousin had Kidney stones a few weeks back and he was in the waiting room vomiting in a bucket from the pain yet he still had to wait behind people who had comparably minor injuries for a good hour.

Still best not to take it for granted. They do a great job for what they're paid.
 
In France we can be decently treated or even get our money back by the health insurance (?) for plastic surgery (if you get along well with the surgeon) etc... We have tons of debts but apparently that's okay :)

So why the fuck do so many people here want healthcare reform exactly?
 
I'd rather spend a few extra dollars to walk into a hospital and get immediate treatment than wait a few months. That's just me though.
 
"Oh you need to see a dermatologist, here's your appointment in 6 months."

FFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU Literally just happened to me, only instead of 6 months they told me "we have no idea, we'll call you...but it will take months"

Just you, and not the MILLIONS of people in your country that don't have those extra dollars. Your healthcare system is there to kill off the poor, and drain the rich of their wealth. You obviously either live with your parents, or are living off their money, someone like you wouldn't understand...this is a topic for grown-ups, sorry :(

Also lol@free prescription pills.
