dont you guys have that ‘i-am-not-a-robot’ test now at the process of registering ?

The measures in place easily stop 300+ bots per day, but a handful always get through. Most likely because they have an actual human being doing the registering and the posting (although I’m still baffled at the “WHY?” of it all)...

From what I’ve seen of the world championship snooker so far, I don’t think anyone’s going to be able to stop Neil Robertson from obtaining his second title.
Shaun Murphy played some of his best snooker of recent years and Robertson still mopped the floor with him. And Selby, O’Sullivan and Williams are out already…

Robertson has been excellent so far, but I do wonder whether he can keep it up. I hope so because he is a much better player than results from the last few seasons might show.

I think Judd Trump is in with a shout, he has had a strong season and is a big occasion player, could be his year.

Actually, the meningitis seemed to affect my taste. For some reason I could eat a few things in the hospital I though to be kinda disgusting before. And this was while I had some days I couldn’t get/keep anything down. Currently one of my drugs alters my taste a bit too, kinda pity. Makes soda taste bad, very chemical and weird. Mineral water tastes sweet then for some reason. And once in a while I just taste liquorice in my throat, I have no idea why.

I just came across this post randomly while searching for something else.  Many, many years ago I had meningitis and I can confirm that, aside from blinding headaches and generally feeling like a wrung sponge, two side effects you’d expect, I also found that almost nothing tasted like it should.  A juicy kebab from my favorite kebab shop, one of my favorite foods in the whole world, tasted like nothing more than a mouthful of Elmer’s Glue to me.  Sick

The only thing I tried at that time that tasted like it should was Chef Boy-Ar-Dee Ravioli, so for a few weeks after being discharged from the hospital that’s what I lived on almost exclusively.

     

Warning- People won’t have as much of a sense of humor about you putting an Alka Seltzer in your mouth then staggering into a restaurant while shouting “THE VIRUS HAS MUTATED!” as you’d hope they would.

Consider this: People say “Ewwww!!!” when they hear about a guy having a hairy bum or hairy back, yet every Teddy Bear ever made has had both a hairy bum AND a hairy back and nobody complains about them; In fact, people think Teddy Bears are adorable.

Still shopping at the Piggly Wiggly

     

An adventure game is nothing more than a good story set with engaging puzzles that fit seamlessly in with the story and the characters, and looks and sounds beautiful.

Of course!  Winn-Dixie is too high (even their special “shopper’s club” members-only discount prices are still a few pennies more than Piggly Wiggly’s regular everyday prices), Western closed (with good reason… they were never known for obsessive cleanliness to begin with and became downright nasty inside the last few years they were open), and Publix and Asda are several miles away whereas Piggly Wiggly is only two blocks down the street.

Let’s not - it’s not relevant, it’s personal & therefore potentially offensive.  Naughty

Also I don’t like that so many notable forum members are not included on this list!  Pan

Oops.. I misread the thread title. I thought it was “anything goes” but I missed the “unless chrissie says” part

Carry on. Grin
