AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on the splitting of larger threads to alleviate server load, with a focus on the continuation of a previous thread. Participants engage in light-hearted banter, celebrating a trivia quiz and discussing various topics, including creativity, humor, and personal anecdotes. One member shares a humorous proposal joke involving a "trivial ring," leading to a deeper conversation about mathematical concepts and the nature of "nothing." The conversation shifts to personal experiences, including frustrations with the medical system following a wisdom tooth extraction, highlighting issues with prescription management and insurance complications. Members express their opinions on dental practices, particularly the necessity of wisdom tooth removal, with some viewing it as a financial racket unless there are complications. Overall, the thread reflects a mix of humor, personal stories, and commentary on broader societal issues, maintaining a casual and engaging tone throughout.

I think it was diabetes related, he was in pretty bad health for several years before his death last year.
Diabetes can be nasty condition.

I mentioned a while back that a friend of mine just hit his toenail the wrong way and it flew off his toe. No particular pain, and he had no conditions. It was a freak happening.

Random find, which for some reason cheered me up:

There was a young lady named Eva
Who went to the ball as Godiva,
But a change in the lights,
Showed a tear in her tights,
And a low fellow present yelled "Beaver"

Amusing, but "Godiva" rhymes with "fiver" here so it doesn't work as well as it could.

I know everyone has thought it, should we change the letter a to o ?

It sort of works if you read it with a quasi-Russian/English-cockney sort of accent.

Good point. As I don't speak English (I only read) it wasn't obvious to me. Godiva in Polish is pronounced as rhyming with "beaver".

In Austin, Tx there's a popular name "Bevo":)...that's all I'm saying.

The trouble with those commercials is, despite the alternatives, I still never warm up to the idea of being normal Rob Lowe.

IMO, cosmology subforum is the funniest read . Sometimes, mere titles of threads are enough to have me in stiches.

Darn it. I was reading a local freelancer job ads that clearly stated a successful candidate could earn up to $10000 per month and I applied for it immediately but today I revisited the site and reread the ads to only see it is only $1000.
I realize I actually work for $$$ :D.

Things that make you wonder - turning on a light at 3am and hearing a vehicle speed away 15 seconds later.

This is always an interesting time of year in my backyard.
I think there are at least 10 different kinds of mushrooms growing right now.
Today I found some that were moldy.
It struck me as somewhat redundant.​

Spinellus fusiger perhaps?

I also accidentally introduced some huge mushrooms about 5 years ago when I purchased some apparently not completely composted mushroom compost.
They are about 7 inches across. I kind of like them. I think they are cold weather mushrooms, as they are migrating northward at about 2 feet per year.​

They live in the same habitat and very near to each other. One's appearance will induce others'.
New food of thought I just got yesterday: Read private messages sent from a smart phone's SIM card embedded application :D.
I can't believe how on Earth people keep asking me good questions I have no answers to.

Thanks for the post! Sorry you aren't generating responses at the moment. Do you have any further information, come to any new conclusions or is it possible to reword the post?

You forgot one thing. "I'm Greg Bernhardt and I approve this auto-post"

I've been accused of being naive, here at the forum. I hate being called that. But it never crossed my mind that those were auto-posts.

Though, I might be a bit biased, as Chroot posted a comment on my very first thread. Even though it was somewhat negative, I was flabbergasted that admin took the time to personally respond. And the criticism was greatly appreciated. Actually, every criticism was greatly appreciated. My flesh friends usually respond to my ideas with; "That's stupid".

It took me only a few more days to figure out that PF was a different, and my kind of place.
