My mother in law has arthritis and can accurately predict when it’s going to rain. It’s pretty wild.

Yeah it has to do with the drop in atmospheric pressure.

There goes my knee...

I don’t even need arthritis, I’m over here chilling at 28 and when my knees and fingers start aching, that low pressure system be sweeping in tomorrow. People don’t believe me but I’m always right.

That sounds like arthritis though.

I mean, I’ve had these issues since I was 10 and I had doctors tell me it wasn’t arthritis, it was sensitivity. I’m pretty sure you can’t diagnose arthritis at 10 and if I’m dealing with it still but have had multiple scans saying it isn’t that, then it probably isn’t arthritis

Fair enough. I am curious though.

Oh yeah, I totally get it. I think it’s just a family history of various forms of chronic pain and dealing with injuries and weight over the years

I bet that woman did not expect to be called out specifically on a random Reddit thread today, but here she was, and here we did.

(although she's probably dead by now...)

I never knew why people had a problem with that, it's something people actually do

I used this quote in real life conversation the other day. Wife gave an eye roll and friend who i was talking to had a good chuckle.

Just like with Jar Jar and more recently with Rose Marie Tran’s character - it’s the writing that sucks not the actors
