What is going on with the t in still? It almost looks like a cross between a t and an f

It must be that new Windows 8+ bootloader that saves a snapshot of running processes to "come up faster."
What works for me is to pop a bunch of painkillers and drink a bunch of water, then take a nap.
if we made it illegal who should i sue? life? the universe?
No the government would be obligated to sentence you to punishment for having woke up with a headache.
Thus I feel many would choose to not self-report. We'll have black market Tylenol knock-offs which will quickly turn to people dabbling in harder narcotics and eventually fueling an opioid crisis.
For me, I have to do the full Hard Reset. A nap. A shower. Maybe shave something. If that doesn't work, trepanation?
That would suck harder’n a black hole. You get a headache, try to sleep it off, fail and then get arrested because you didn’t get rid of your headache. Now you have a headache and you’re in jail! Waking up with a headache should be an effective palliative treatment situation, not a prosecutorial situation
THE THIRD WISH IS GRANTED:
The Trump Admin will now begin rounding up people with headaches and putting them into forced labor "treatment camps".
Migraine is worse. Go to bed without headache, wake up with splitting headache. Unfortunately relaxation tis a common migraine trigger.
I love how caffeine can both be a trigger and a treatment.
Yeah I use it to prevent, but for one of my offspring (and only one of them) it's a trigger.
But to be fair, the list of potential food triggers the doctor gave me once made me cry, it was literally every food. And also fasting. I'm sure they are trying to help but it always feels like being blamed - you are causing the headaches, just stop doing whatever is causing them!"
Dude. My main migraine triggers were my period, and sleep, relaxing after stress. Not things I could avoid, no matter how much you try to blame it on lifestyle. Menopause plus MHT took care of the main trigger, now it's just that sleep after stress one, much less frequent now, I can often dodge them with some coffee before bed, I guess that keeps everything slightly tense until I wake up, and they don't usually start in the day. Massage only scheduled for mornings, never late in the day. Any cocktail or wine is with supper or earlier never ever ever before bed. Those things do help but don't prevent all of them.
Not every problem is fixed with a reboot, sometimes its a hardware problem or lack of water
I just listened to the postcast Failure To Launch's series on Jack Parsons, a REALLY werird rocker scientist, who after handling nitroglycerin without gloves got a massive headache lasting 5 days straight.
This was so common among the team that it was called a "nitroglycerin headache".
Just thought about it when reading this post.
BTW, I can highly recommend the Failure To Launch podcast, it is absolutely brilliant.
Taking a nap often gives me a headache
You'd rather your body not tell you that something is wrong?
Yes. Please.
Oh, that’s bad. You really want your body to tell when you’re injuring yourself. People with no ability to feel pain often have their teeth pulled so they don’t unknowingly chew their own tongues off. You put your hand on a lit stovetop burner, you can’t feel it, and your hand cooks while you wonder what smells so good. You suddenly discover you can’t walk because your legs broke several months ago and you’ve been using them long past when others would have gone to the ER. You suffocate and don’t understand why your vision is fading, and you don’t realize that you’re dying.
While pain can easily be agonizing, not being able to feel pain means you have no way to know that you’re in critical danger.
Okay, but have you considered that I have no health insurance and live in a shithole country that will happily let me suffer and die for being broke? I'd rather feel fine until I keel over than agonize while having to push through. What use is pain I can't do anything to address?
Okay but what if I’m in critical danger all the time
Headaches are most frequently referred pain from neck and scalp muscle spasms.
Yes sometimes headaches are an indicator of something else, but much less often.
I agree, though I was half expecting sfilling some product in the bottom half.
The first time this happened to me reminds me of the first time it took me two full days to get over a hangover. I was like "Motherfucker, what's going on here!?"
This bitch needs electrolytes
That's the reason why i take something against my headache in this case, because it must be pretty bad in the first place for me to go lie down. Makes the likelyhood of that to happen much lower.
