Fix as in had? Three dates had through a dating app.

Tie chewing... I've definitely heard worse!

I've always seen marriage as you're not marrying the person you know, you're marrying the person you don't know. Just who they were before marriage is a good indicator of the person they truly are or are going to become.
Genesis 24:16-19 is a good indicator, would reckon,

I joined a dating app many many years ago and a question asked there was, "When no one's watching I..."

My response was, "Pretend I'm in commercials for non-existent products and sell them to myself in the bathroom mirror." Everyone who contacted me thought I was just trying to be quirky and funny, I wasn't. That is something I genuinely do when no one is watching. And I truly believe everyone does something similar.

Now my first question! Do you believe everyone does similar things, or am I really the odd one out here?
I have “sportscasters” in my head who do “color commentary” whilst I’m dressing (say) or cutting mushrooms for dinner; it’s all part of having a “bigger brain than is absolutely necessary”.

Non members can come and comment, that's me, it's hard to explain. And now I'm stuck with how to explain further. Anyway, I'm not knowing. How they see me but I'm sure if you aren't a member making comments it can't last forever:). Clear as mud?? I asked they delete my account they said they couldn't so long story short i asked they put me back. No response so I've been posting as a visitor but it still lets me sign in i just can't post if signed in. I have an instant headache. I consider i have come in the back door.

Why does chocolate constipate the eater?


My AI (Perplexity) says:

There is some debate about whether chocolate causes constipation. While there is no definitive scientific evidence to support this claim, some people claim that they experience constipation after consuming chocolate

. Here are some factors to consider:

  1. Digestive Process: Chocolate can slow down the digestive process, which may contribute to constipation.

    However, this effect may vary from person to person.
  2. Ingredients: Chocolate bars and cakes often contain milk, which some people find constipating. Additionally, chocolate contains caffeine, which can contribute to dehydration. A lack of water in the intestines can make stools dry and harder to pass. Chocolate-filled foods are also typically high in sugar, which can replace healthier, high-fiber foods in the diet that help keep the bowels regular
  3. Perception: In a study, chocolate was frequently mentioned as a food that causes constipation

    However, it's important to note that perception does not always align with scientific evidence.
In conclusion, while some individuals may experience constipation after consuming chocolate, there is no conclusive evidence to support a direct causal relationship. It's important to listen to your body and make dietary choices that work best for you. If you have concerns about constipation or any other digestive issues, it's always a good idea to consult with a healthcare professional.

HEY, OB, good to hear from you:). I wouldn't think to go to a doc for that. It's not that important, just stop eating it:)

Are you all getting the new strain covid vaccine?
A month ago I went to the Docs for a checkup - my first checkup in several decades.

Apart from the usual poking, prodding and awkward questions I got:
  • Covid shot number 4
  • This year's flu shot
  • The first of two shingles shots (at $320 a shot o_O)
  • two needles to take several samples for various blood tests
I am a pin-cushion.
