    The Lounge thread: Whatever you feel like......... Anything goes! Part XII

    Yes, I can adjust the brightness, but it makes pictures of people look like they're suffering from liver failure. It's been a while since I've used one of these kinds of monitors, so I think my eyes just had to get used to looking at a direct light source. My eyes aren't burning any more :)

    Odd/Funny Names

    There's an episode of My Little Pony called The Ghost of Paradise Estate. There's a species of bird that's featured in that episode that, and I'm only guessing on the spelling, is called "Pennis" (or maybe "Pennas"). I spelled it "Penis" for 20 years before it finally occurred to me the "e"...

    My 2 and a half year old flat screen monitor is fading to white in spots. Warranty just ran out 6 months ago. I've hooked up my old huge heavy monitor again. This dinosaur monitor burns my eyes :roll: but at least I can read it.

    I was in Washington DC for President Clinton's second inauguration (sp), and as I recall, it was -20°C. However, less than a week prior, I was in Florida to warm up, and I woke up to frost on the palm trees outside my hotel window.

    I was using the word "doctor" as a blanket term.

    The thing about the rainbow and the pony and the random people kissing are just examples of lame things that make me cry. I can come up with some more examples if you like. :giggle: Yes, I've thought about anti-depressants. I'd take one if it were prescribed to me by my doctor. I'm sure the...

    The Lounge thread: Whatever you feel like......... Anything goes! Part XII

    Well there is one symptom that just seems inappropriate to be posting here, but I'll try to remember the rest. However, after years of House, I know better than to leave out a symptom even if I think it's unrelated to the problem, though I haven't dismissed the possibility that I have multiple...

    I'm not really sure what it is. Pain is an indication of a problem, so I'd really like it if the problem could be found and fixed. I don't want to die again. But perhaps I'll look that up.

    Oh, Hi, Bottesini! You must have sensed that I'd turned this thing off because I thought it was getting monotonous. I don't think anybody wants to know how I'm feeling, but since you asked, PAIN!! Unstoppable pain all over my body, and my doctors think I'm making it up and seeking drugs. I...

    New Signers' Funny Mistakes

    :hmm: I learned a different sign for orgasm. Somehow, I don't think it was wrong. Again, the dirty minds of the general population probably contributing to the wide variety of sex-related signs, their desire to see sex in everything anybody says.

    New Signers' Funny Mistakes

    It's virtually impossible to say anything in English without making it possible for it to be misinterpreted to mean you're having sex. I assume this is because there are so many dirty-minded people in the general population. Just because some of these people are deaf doesn't mean their minds...

    New Signers' Funny Mistakes

    Somebody better qualified than me should answer this, but I cause my hand to bounce off in order to avoid misunderstanding. If I were to just place it there, it could appear to be a suggestive motion such as a mating animal, thereby taking on the vulgar meaning we're trying to avoid. I also...
