I tried that sublingual melatonin last night. I’ve gotten 3 brands, so this was the first. It was interesting, and a partial success I’d say. Better night sleep than usual, but not ideal. Maybe it gets better over time? ---

He’s taking some codeine painkillers which are working. There’s no need to proceed further with it. If you lived in this godforsaken nation called ROI you would understand Hey asshole - I’ve been living in “this godforsaken nation called ROI” for over 11 years now. You’re so full of shit about not being able to afford a GP visit. €50. Your pal can’t come up with €50, but has money to spend on “codeine painkillers”? :dubious: Sure… And you are now claiming to have lived in the USA (where I am from), and complain about how expensive prescription meds are here? Again, bullshit. I’m down here in County Cork and I think you’re an asshole who’s full of shit. Yep, that about sums it up. Peace out! ---

> [@Chimera](#): > > No, but Rainier cherries are back for their all-too brief season and I’m eating some. You misspelled Bing. 🙂 I’ve started at least one thread about the joys of cherry season, and almost started another one last week. But I think one or two is enough. Threads, not cherries. I’m munching on some as we type. ---

> [@Czarcasm](#): > > He may have been born in the area(Tacoma, I believe), but I don’t think they renamed Rainier cherries after Mr. Crosby. Oh, I know. One of my cherry threads, IIRC, was directed at Washington Cherries. They come in later than ours do in NorCal, and are maybe even a bit better than ours are. Nice to have the season extend a few weeks. ---

Shut up you posh scumbag, you obviously have no idea what it’s like to live as the average 19yr old student struggling financially. I really would have not expected an American expat to be so arrogant. FYI, Nurofen Plus (24 tablets) cost €10.00 in most pharmacies in Dublin as of May 2017. That’s no where near the amount required to see any doctor. Add the fact that my friend has exams in the next few days as well, he doesn’t have the time. He made a stupid mistake but we sorted it out. We sorted it out lads 😃 ---

Yeah, college students here have it soooooooo rough compared to the USA. :rolleyes: I’ve actually had to sell my blood plasma on a couple occasions as an undergraduate at UT Austin years ago. You have no fucking clue what you’re talking about here. Try looking up the relative costs of third-level education in the USA vis-a-vis ROI, or - hell - pretty much anywhere in Europe. > [@](#): > > FYI, Nurofen Plus (24 tablets) cost €10.00 in most pharmacies in Dublin as of May 2017.

I have thought about starting a new one called “tatting and knitting” or something and then PMing those interested. There’s nothing that says we have to talk to them when they drop in though. Oh well, this too shall pass.
