  • I’m not subscribed to this magazine, yet it still shows up when I filter by “subscribed.” I’d like it to stop now. BTW, it’s not a dad joke. It’s just a terrible joke. Also, Kbin, stop showing me magazines I’m not subscribed to when I filter by subscribed. Thank you. Please. This magazine is the most irritating one I see when I filter by “subscribed” and I’m not subscribed to it. Also: gonna start complaining on all the magazines with comments like this about my personal problem with this web site. Might try to change my user name to Karen or something. I really need to speak to a manager.




  • In Spain, where we have medical care for almost everyone, we do have dentists on the public payroll. However, they are limited in what they can do. For example, they extract teeth in preparation for surgeries. Public health dentists are also available for other types of extractions if the tooth can’t be saved and they are available to examine patients who went to a private dentist and something went wrong. It’s very limited. If you want a root canal, a crown, a cavity filled, etc. you have to pay a private dentist. Basically, if the public health system considers a dental procedure elective, you have to go to a private dentist for the procedure. The public health system considers pretty much 90% of dental procedures elective. Personally, I think this is unfair. I don’t think a root canal should be considered an elective procedure. It saves a person’s tooth, which is necessary for eating. Then again, imagine how complicated things would get. You’d probably have to wait on a waiting list for a root canal, then go to a private dentist for the crown.

    Also, it’s important to note that private dentists are not nearly as expensive as American one (I’m originally from the USA), My last recent root canal with crown included cost me about 300 euros. We don’t rely as heavily on dental insurance here, so the prices are reasonable. When I get my teeth cleaned with a checkup, I pay 70 euros. It’s wonderful.



  • I’m only waiting because I can’t spend the money right now. If you have the money and won’t miss it if you spend it, go for it. There won’t be a new release for a long while. I am finding it hard to wait to get one but I promised myself I would be better at saving money every month, so I am waiting. I am going to save up cash for one. No steak dinner for me for a while! Anyway, go for it if you can afford it. Just don’t wave it in my face being all "na na na na na I have one you don’t "
