      I resolve to never ever open the "I am the woman in the freeweights section of the gym" thread again so long as we both do live (i.e., me login to MPF, it having people actively posting to it).

      Well, I'm not going to lie. I absolutely detest it. It freaks me out and it feels weird and my kids are cryingandthewifemovedoutandit'sallbecauseIshavedmybeard!!!!!!! It's already growing out.

      My Dad shaved his beard for the first time when I was about 4. Came in to kiss me good night and I completely lost my shiz. It took mum about an hour to calm me down and get me to understand the 'bad man' was daddy.

      Yeah, I made sure my daughter was there when I shaved and took frequent breaks to show her the progress to avoid that very scenario.

      You think I'm awesome (sung to the tune of Sandra Bullock in Miss Congeniality)

      Right back at you :)

      But seriously...acupuncture is a real thing

      Have you never seen the surgery clips?

      Warning ...shows real surgery

      See http://www.internationalskeptics.com/forums/showthread.php?t=116686

      I like this bit in particular. "It's not quite so much that Chinese patients feared death if they cried out, but much more that ingrained culture prevented them from insulting the surgeon by doing so."

      xoo

      I second the recommendation to read Simon Singh's "Trick or Treatment". It has a great history of the scientific method as a preview to its discussion of alternative medicine.

      After doing this ie: weight loss and then maintaining for 3 years, I promise to act my age and not buy into unrealistic promises of the latest style of eating.

      Late 2015 saw me turn into a frantic, frenzied and confused 'newbie'....when I should have known better.

      I vow to ask for advice sooner from those much wiser than me.

      Hurry before they're all gone.

      Haha! It actually doesn't bother me so much as I just like to joke around about it. I do shake my head in disbelief sometimes and think "Man, people are bad at this."

      Well wrote is a doozy. It's also ironic.

      This thread made my day brighter!

      I resolve to not have the urge to bash someone's head against a wall when I see posts like: "1200 calories is too much for me." Well, if you feel that way then why are you overweight? * takes deep breath to prevent assault and battery on poor plant on desk*

      If we are talking about spelling -
      I will never eat a donut - I will eat a doughnut.
      I will never eat yogurt - I will eat yoghurt.
      I will not see red when I see the word colour spelt color.

      Those are cultural language differences, not misspellings.
