    Can you guess who'll be playfully ploughing thru some ice cream later today, as they contemplate the many plot twists of this enduring story?

    I presume you mean me, but are you perhaps referring to another?

    Isn't it too chilly for ice cream, now, unless you are adding it to a hot cup of apple cider or apple pie?

    Haven't I added ice cream to coffee, hot as well as cold?

    Isn't vanilla ice cream a good coffee cream substitute when you've run out of whipping cream?

    Isn't "plot" followed by "plots" which really isn't that much harder to understand?

    Are there plural and singular entries for every word in the dictionary?

    What's the plural for "flabbergasted?"

    If I am scooping ice cream, am I not technically ploughing the gallon? Does that count as fun?

    Was that the example you found in the dictionary for how to use that word in a sentence?

    Isn't it also nice to pour a small amount of coffee over ice cream to form a icy coffee coating, much like what happens with an ice cream soda?

    At a convention of linguists and grammarians, upon hearing of yet another case of an adjective being pressed into service as a noun, would there not be a reaction from a group of flabbergasteds?

    Does that equally apply when "flabbergasted" is used as an adverb?

    Does that make “playfully plowing” an oxymoron? Also, am I the only one who had to use a dictionary to find out that ploughing is the British English spelling while plowing is the American English spelling of the same word?

    The only "dance" I can do is the moonwalk...does that count?

    Are you telling me you can do the moonwalk, @nossmf , but not the Macarena?

    What type of dancing?

    Does anyone else think this seemingly random question from @jazleneortiz37 might be from page 1 of this lovely thread?

    Isn't that likely, but was it a case of extreme multi-year lag (9+ years!), or just a case of failing to notice a week ago that there were over 3,400 more pages of questions after page 1?

    Wait, there's a page 1? Doesn't that imply this thread had a beginning, and therefore there was a time before this thread existed? What did you people do before this thread existed?

    Are you referring to immediately before the existence of this thread? Don’t you remember that a long roadtrip is what prompted the creation of this lovely thread, @nossmf ?

    Can we all agree that extreme multi-year lag is the absolute worst kind of lag?

    If you read on back through some of the earlier pages, wouldn’t you see I may have been having pages of conversations with just myself? 😅

    Considering I didn't join the thread until page 4,000-something, can I be excused for not knowing the origin of the thread?

    Should I post the origin story on every page from here on out? 😂

    Why not add it as a signature line to your name, so every post you make includes this vital information?

    Does anybody know how to create a signature line for posts here in MFP?

    Can someone let me know when they find out so I can add mine? How does “User formerly known as The Warden, newly dubbed Thread Empress” sound?

    If you’re already digging around, can I save you some time with this link which explains that feature is no more?

    https://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/discussion/10893702/how-do-i-add-a-signature

    Do you think people would get more tired of reading my signature than I would get of having to copy it into every post? 😂

    nossmf Posts: 14,102 Member
    If that feature is no more, how come a few people still get to use it? Why allow existing signatures to continue but not allow new ones? Shouldn't all existing signatures disappear if it is truly "no more?"

    Can you figure out how to do that please? Do you think if we’re successful, they would show up retroactively? Can you imagine what our page count would be if that were the case?

    Wouldn't the page count remain the same? Aren't there 30 posts per page despite the length/brevity of posts?
