Just found out one of my favorite professors got suspended from teaching because he had a raging drug addiction. He was falling asleep during conversations, and got caught injecting himself at work

Odd situation, today. I wrote a letter to the editor of the local paper asking why the county mounties or the state police couldn't be bothered patrol this country road. The speed limit is 45, and scofflaws often blow by here at 70+.
Interestingly, one of the people who complained about the increased attention was a woman who was complaining several years back about all the speeders. Her husband took her to task because she was an inveterate speeder, and an argument ensued. I excused myself saying that I had to get back home. This was a few years before their daughter moved back home with their 2 pre-school grand-daughters. How things have changed! If you don't want to get fined, don't speed. It's pretty simple.
Another person who complained to my wife is a widow who raises Boston terriers. After one of her prize bitches was killed in the road last summer, you'd think she might be happy for a bit of extra traffic coverage. Nope. I guess that their "right" to speed is more important than reining in the scofflaws.

Ladies and gentlemen, I've gathered you all here for a reason.
Today. Today is the day that my gold membership has expired. It all began six months ago. PF was still yearning for its 4,000,000th post, and our highest-in-command put forth a challenge: he who takes a screenshot of the PF home page upon its 4,000,000th post shall earn six free months of gold membership. That challenge was accepted and accomplished, and I was that man. Not taking lightly my newly founded responsibilities, I sought forth for a symbol which would describe the essence of my persona, something which, upon gazing, would be analogous with myself. For this reason, you have associated my being with that of a juice-box. One was blue, the other an orangish-color, representative of my ever changing moods.
Thus, with a heavy heart, and a longing nostalgia for what once was, I say good-bye to the juice boxes. I say good-bye to the ever-changing multitude of signatures, and lastly, I say good-bye to you.

I wonder how long it'll last if I actually put it there.
I think it's largely a matter of notation.
Since feline mathematicians, such as Ella Inez Fitzgerald Kotschessa [pictured below], do not have a way of handling superscript notation, they simply denote qeq7z37 by qeqqqqqqqzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
Since cat domestication originated in Egypt, and egyptians wrote decimals as a series of unit fractions, it is not surprising that modern feline algebraists would take a similar approach to their notation.

I hear ya, I've only had one experience of "pain" due to a slightly herniated disc.
The "battle" is very psychological imo. My condolences... it ain't easy. If I had chronic pain I think I'd learn to meditate to see if that practice would help ignore pain.
