Having Covid is a good excuse to bitch about...whatever. I chose digital thermometers. Hateful monstrosities.

On a related note, I have the same issues with digital cooking thermometers. They are so all over the place with their readings that they are essentially useless.
I've had to go back to the old-fashioned but reliable cooking thermometers.

Mercury-filled glass rectal thermometers for ME!My uncle was in a large hospital ward where the nurses were walking down a row of beds to record temperatures. As the nurse attempted to put the thermometer in his mouth, he immediately objected. What's wrong she asked? I just removed it from 100% alcohol. My uncle: yes, but you just pulled it out of 100% ass. It's not going in my mouth.

A lot of people are afraid of pressure cookers, but they aren’t dangerous like to old ones were in the 60’s...............

I use mine for some things. Canning, etc. Never had a problem. Might try the ribs thing.

There actually is a ‘difference’.
Bulb shape
Since rectal tissues are fragile and easily ripped, rectal thermometers have a short, blunt, slightly rounded tip that reduces the risk of a rectal puncture or tear.
Oral thermometers have longer, thinner tips as a long and slender bulb exposes as much mercury surface area as possible. Exposing a larger surface area aids in obtaining an accurate temperature more quickly.

We had some friends over for BBQ one time and we cooked the ribs in the pressure cooker, then immediately put them on a baking pan, poured the sweet BBQ sauce over them and baked them in the oven until the sauce was bubbly and they were the hit of the show!.................

(and precisely 14 days post-omicron booster) So you made yourself sick. And have put other people at risk by spreading it
If you want sympathy you can look in the dictionary.
You know what words to find it between.

I still use one my parents used on me when I was a child in the 60’s-70’s. Don’t have to worry about batteries and accuracy.
