Yes, you are right. And I have already expressed my mea culpas and understanding it was a shitty thing to say. I’m not really sure what else to say.

It sends up a lot of red flags that you are an unstable and dangerous person incapable of controlling their emotions.

All the more reason I would like my meds to not be interrupted by some company’s profit margins.

You’re absolutely right. Having moved past the feelings of frustration, I see that was stupid.

Certainly understandable, and I’ve edited the main post to acknowledge the shitty nature of that part of my comments. I think I was just less receptive to @dhork@lemmy.world because of their condescending way of putting it.

Yes, that comment was over the line. No I do not endorse terrorism.

Well as long as we’re taking obviously figurative language and interpreting it literally, I didn’t say I was going to send one, I said someone should. So report away.

I didn’t send them a threat. Mistr isn’t associated with United Healthcare/Optum. I was making an expression of frustration to someone who would likely understand since I’m sure I’m not the first person they’ve had to help with this insurance provider.

Optum does that, too. I’ve had to do it on a number of occasions. The source of my frustration there is if I’m having to call in and go through that process on a regular basis, I should just be able to get my meds from the pharmacy they end up sending it to, anyway. But that would make too much sense, so of course it’s the last thing they’d allow me to do.

Will give them a look. Thanks for the suggestion!

I’ll have to look my meds up on there and check out their details. I’m hoping they just won’t be that expensive at my local pharmacy across the street from my apartment, though. I’d love the convenience of just picking them up at the same building I get my morning coffee from. Which for me is the most absurd thing - I have a local pharmacy right next door, but no, we need to involve Optum and the USPS to the mix.

Exactly who I was thinking of. I just cannot believe they thought that would go over well. Someone surely got fired over that idea.

Godwin’s Law wins out again. Congrats on your original argument.

Yeah, that photoshop story didn’t make any sense to me when it came out. My immediate thought was that it sounded silly to think the royals touch up their own photos - that are mostly taken by professional photographers to begin with.

Seems to be a common theme for a lot of the big world issues, honestly.

Just wall his dumpy ass in there like Countess Báthory. Leave a small gap for someone to deliver hamberders for the rest of his life.

At least one fast food joint tickled the idea of Uber-style surge pricing for their food before going back on it from the backlash. Fast Food wars are just a matter of time.

I bet you’re every comedian’s favorite heckler at the comedy club.

It’s a joke, not a cock - don’t take it so deep. If it’s not funny, glance over it and move on. Like Don Quixote tilting at mediocrely humored windmills.

Well now that we’ve thoroughly analyzed the joke to death…

I was so happy when I was able to tell Comcast/Xfinity to suck toads after moving to an area with Google Fiber. Google may be a shit company, but I gotta admit I really love symmetrical gigabit service for $70/month.

Turns out you can download that codec pack as a torrent.

Anyone else suddenly reconsidering their position against assassination? Then again, that would probably just make him a martyr for all the nutjobs planning to vote for him. Maybe he’ll cut himself on a rusty nail and tetanus will do us a favor.
