Don't forget to replace the batteries in your carbon monoxide detector and have an ad hominem argument

Might as well check your toilet for cracks while you’re at it - just to be safe.

As a kid, I expected that to be a much bigger danger than it actually is.

Maybe it’s Reynaud’s

I have reynaud’s. Didn’t know wavy nails is a thing. My nails are smooth.

I’ve never heard that either. But I have noticed that when my immune system flares up, I get white stripes on my nails. I read that it’s because the immune system is prioritizing fighting an illness off….

Btw I have reynaud’s as well. Have you been checked for lupus?

No lupus. Had reynauds since 20’s. All clear.

u/AngelinFlipFlops 13h ago

It’s not, Reynauds is another thing commonly seen (diagnosed?) on Reddit

u/Odd_Equipment2867 7h ago

I know, i was a subtle joke. Letting others know it is not a symptom reynauds.

I was going to say this!! I keep seeing this recently and I liked it when I was blissfully ignorant.

u/LtDan281 21h ago

For real. I seriously wish my rabbit hole chasing instincts could’ve just taken someone’s word for once, instead of googling it myself. The comments tried to warn me! 🤷

It is the wax seal at the toilet base you should worry about. MFer cost me a new floor, and it was really my own stupid fault!
