Scary as **** the first time you get one of those, huh? I've had a couple over the years. I call them blasters...much worse than my normal migraines. With the blasters, I can't keep the pills down. Only way to stop them (for me) is a shot of Demerol in the ***. Knocks me out until my body recovers.

I'm glad you're okay!

With no big headache and visuals like I took LSD I had no idea what the **** was happening. With my parents and their siblings having had a million strokes I was thinking something like that.

Oh, and if it had been a stroke I didn't want to have to comeback here and tell YOU that I did the guy thing and just laid down for it to go away rather than see a doc. Although if this happens again I'll do exactly that.

Boxster, hope you keep improving, sounds like a rough night.

I'm surprised Rum Brooklyn hasn't given us a wedding update.

Birdy what movies did you and the girls watch? I split time between the FB game and the Harry Potter series on some channel.
 
So what did a miss? Caught the most of the first quarter in an exam room at the hospital. Little TV in the room had the game on. Got a brain MRI during the 2nd quarter.

Had a vision freakout around 5:30. Had a little flash like thingy in my field of vision like from a bright light or flash except it had sharp pointed colored edges. Closed one eye, then the other and it was the same for both. Then the spot started getting bigger and bigger and bigger till everything when fuzzy and oddly distorted. Told my friend I think we had better go to the ER.

On the drive over if got weirder and weirder. Objects I looked at had no left. Oncoming car, right half only and background where the left should be. Same for signs. Stop sign was “OPâ€￾ and half an octagon. Was freakin’ me out. Also felt super dizzy and nauseated.

After some time in ER room started to feel better. MRI was fine, no stroke. Eyes looked fine. It was a ot of ******* around to get to point of saying it's likely an ocular migraine. Looked it up and the image example looks a lot like what I was seeing. Still don’t feel good, have headache and kinda queasy but vision is okay again. A freaky WTF for sure.
Holy **** man, hope everything is good.
 
Train is rolling on the football board.
Love him in the I'm convinced thread. And Freeborn's an idiot. If you're going to be a hawk pretending to be a cyclone fan, don't identify yourself as a hawk fan early on and then make the switch.

Though these meltdown threads really make me want to start a poll thread where I ask if we would beat University of Wisconsin-Whitewater (a D3 team which has won 5 of the last 6 d3 national titles). We all know we would win, but I feel like there's plenty of people here who are pessimistic enough and hate Paul Rhoades enough to actually vote against us.

Ha, that's even the one I was talking about. Sadly, that dude has some people fooled. But Train somehow berated him then got him to call him buddy. I think the Mr. Bean gif confused him.
 
Yep. You'll know which one as soon as you read it. Nobody else has voted for it, though.

I love that you threw it in right after the "making the same joke over and over and over" option (even though I know that was about judoka) and right before a post about Dandy. Perfect placement.
