    If you haven't, try laying a hot wet washcloth on them. It kinda draws it to the surface and speeds it up. I hope they get over with soon, cysts suck ):

    Also, reddit is a dumpster fire.

    It's probably possible, but I don't know that I've had issues before and I usually have a handful of scripts running.

    Have you tried reinstalling it?

    I am now an obese old man. I haven't exercised in earnest in two years. I smoke, drink 5 times a week (like 12-15 beers a night), and eat like a Lumberjack.

    My BP runs 116/65 almost like clockwork. My resting heartrate is in the 60s. I can run 5k right now (slowly.... I am fat... ). I can do 50 pushups. The gear all works. Run 90/50 LDL/HDL.

    This morning I ate a full English minus beans and tonight I ate a pizza and two bottles of wine. I'm almost 50.

    Oh, I'm so sorry about the cysts but I have a weird obsession with stuff like that. I'll watch YouTube videos.

    Yeah they are slowly making there way off of my tailbone, so i'm super excited about that.
    Ive tried the washcloth, the epsom salt, the tea tree oil, the apple cider vinegar, all of them have just helped speed the process up

    (but also make things a lot more painful very quickly)

    also yes reddit is terrible and that is an insult to fires that happen in a dumpster.

    Name change requests are handled on a case-by-case basis, general guidelines are as follows:

    Trying to hide from @Vanyanka? Don't bother. She's too good at what she does.. she'll find you (help meeee)
    Trying to change @Vanyanka's name? ..This kinda depends on how funny the idea is :dunno:
    All Others: I really didn't have enough jokes prepared for this moment.. but if you're legit trying to change your name just DM me the change because it has to go to 3 different parts of the site so the regular XF stuff doesn't work :flail: (never add your own custom website stuffs its like a spider web of duct tape, silly string, and bugs that will not die no matter how much code you patch).

    Ouch ): yea unfortunately if it doesn't make it go, it makes it hurt a lot worse. :hug:

    My mom wisdom is not equipped with any other advice, so I just hope it gets better soon.

    And yeaaa, but it was the best I could come up with :emoji_joy:. I did come here from Reddit though :emoji_eyes:. Very glad about that decision.

    Kerek updated the script for the new site I think the night before last. He did mention some functionality on the old site possibly being broken, but he said he wasn't going to try to fix that since the old site will be obsolete in a week and a half anyway. I don't remember all of the exact details, but I think that's the general gist of it. I would link you to the post if my forum wasn't down right now. :emoji_rolling_eyes:

    Well, these ones are caused by a genetic pilonidal sinus passed down to me by my parents. the only bad part was what I originally thought was one after a nurse looked over it turned out to be 4 in the cluster shape of one. so it's been really really bad. up until like 5 hours ago I could move at all, walk or anything so i'm glad even though it was the smallest one they are starting to burst~

    (this brings me to day 4) (day 1 you hardly notice and its just more of annoying thing) (day 2 its a little harder to lay down and sit and what not) (night 2 you are in full blown pain you can't lay on either side of your body laying on your stomach gives you the sorest body you can imagine) (day 3 is full blown agony, lots of laying in the bed in one position and if someone manages to help you get up enough to walk for a moment its wonderful but also super painful and you also look like youre 80 because youre slumped over looking at your feet doing some sort of shuffle) (day 4 is just all the other days times 100 + 1000 and so much worse.)
