Well, that's what you get for going to scam artists.

Acupuncture patient stuck in office

I thought that was the point of acupuncture?

I would have been on pins and needles if that happened to me.

I'll bet her chi was all farked up.

Boy, if only she'd had some sort of metal instrument to pick the door lock...

I'm sure there was a point though

Would have been great if she dozed off then rolled over. The screaming would have gotten the cops to kick in the doors.

Also - no emergncy doors in the place, windows to break out, whatever? You lock me in and forget about me, I'm coming out whatever way possible. Best method is computer through window, then step carefully over the wreckage.

Did the acupuncturist light the needles on fire?

did she kick the guys ass?

That's a piercing headline, subby. Sharp and to the point.

Back in grad school I had some major stress. I had a girlfriend who swore by her acupuncturist, so I gave it a shot. She put needles in me. I was expecting some sort of relief but all I got were some needles. I told her "I got nothing" and then she proceeded to wave her arms around in the air over my body. That's when I realized "Oh shiat this whole thing is a scam." THEN she expected a tip. At $35 for a half hour it was good money spent.

If what you needed was an object lesson in the placebo effect, then it may have been.

Damn. took me 45 seconds too long to find that picture.

Because it took me too long to find an image I could hotlink, and I'm didn't do all that work for nigh.

Also, because I'm bored

/In my head, Pinhead got stuck in an acupuncture office and decided to do it himself, like a 3 year old playing with her mothers make-up.

///Hope I don't get fired for this... wait, that would imply anyone at work actually cares...

The Bellingham Herald says a call to the clinic on Wednesday was returned by a lawyer who declined comment.

I wouldn't comment either if I were hired by scam artists.

Wow. Almost happened to me at an OB/Gyn office. Took me to a back room, told me to undress. A half hour later, I put on my clothes and they were closing the office for the day. Muther Farkers.

Now that's what I call a sticky situation....


/ice cream?
//anyone?

I think I've seen a "movie" that starts like that...

THIS is why I only go in for cupping.

Yeah that's what I was implying.

Ah acupuncture....is there any stupid shiat women won't spend money on?

brought to you by the same people who breed like rabbits but feel the need for powdered rhino horn.

That's not fair. Men waste just as much money on anything that they are told will cure baldness or make their dicks grow.

I go to the acupuncturist when I'm feeling especially stressed out. They stick needles in me and I instantly relax and then lie there for about a half and hour, just being relaxed. Afterward, I feel refreshed and my stress levels are much lower. If I go weekly my stress levels stay nice and manageable. When I miss a week or two I notice I get stressed out much more easily.

Is it b.s.? Just placebo? Am I an idiot for wasting my money? At this point, I don't care. It works for me. YMMV.

RembrandtQEinstein: Ah acupuncture....is there any stupid shiat women won't spend money on?

Yeah, whatever. I have MS and I can sometimes get relief from acupuncture that I can't get with heavy duty narcotics. Placebo or not, if I can skip the drugs I'll do it and save my liver for more desperate times to come.

I doubt it really matters where they stick the needles. But when you hurt yourself your body unleashes all sorts of shiat like natural endorphins and healing mechanism to deal with the itty bitty trauma. So I always wonder if there is a cumulative effect to sticking yourself 100 times with tiny needles? Not alot of trauma but lots of good hormonal stuff going on.

I figure its cheaper and leaves less marks than getting the crap kicked out of me by a dominatrix.

:P
