8:03 am

Uneaixoise

New to me too :-)

8:09 am

hurshy

not anesthesia... related?

8:14 am

hokie carla

well, I saw what part of the word was in the chat and still haven't monkeyed it

8:14 am

hokie carla

ok, swear I tried that

8:14 am

MollyL

Pain relief medicine, not a well known word

8:14 am

hurshy

oh! i know that word

8:14 am

MollyL

Of course

8:14 am

hurshy

i didn't know it could be a noun as well as an adjective, maybe

8:15 am

hurshy

if you want to know more words like that just read old books, that's all, lol

8:15 am

hokie carla

how does that change anything in this case?

8:16 am

hokie carla

like, it looks like a noun and its plural. if someone said it was an adj. I could understand your statement because you'd be looking for an adj ending. I'm just confused, carry on.

8:17 am

hurshy

if it were only an adj, there wouldn't be the 8, only the 7

8:17 am

hokie carla

oh, so you're saying you knew it already as an adj. I thought you meant the other way around.

8:18 am

WHY NO TRESOR

9:15 am

mattygroves

I had mine on Wednesday and pretty much no side effects, just a bit of a sore arm for a day or two

9:23 am

MollyL

No tresor because only the foreign words that Enable accepts are allowed. For example, merde is allowed. Merci is not.

9:23 am

MollyL

Stupid, but that is the way the ball bounces here in Babble Land.

9:49 am

mkg

Anyone have any of the in words? I am blind to them today

9:49 am

mkg

10:34 am

72 Temple Owl

just got second in June, will probably wait a month or so

10:34 am

gemini_J13

my husband and I were probably 1 in a million with side effects.............

10:34 am

Scrabbler

I need to get my 2 shingles vaccines.

10:34 am

HarryHood

my 2nd shingles threw me for a loop

10:34 am

HarryHood

I was down for a day

10:34 am

hydra

Two? I was only given one!

10:34 am

Scrabbler

Oh, no, gemini, what happened?

10:35 am

72 Temple Owl

oh yes. i had no idea.

10:35 am

Scrabbler

I have heard that from everyone, HH.

10:35 am

gemini_J13

not terrible but muscle aches, pains, chills ~ day and a half.... we both went to bed

10:35 am

72 Temple Owl

chills and fever. not things i have experieinced often in my adult life

10:36 am

Scrabbler

I had that with CoV #2 but not with 3, 4, and 5.

10:36 am

72 Temple Owl

no issues with covid, just with shingles #2

10:36 am

gemini_J13

hmmm this was our 4,,,, nothing with the others

10:37 am

gemini_J13

I had shingles, so the shot was nothing!!!

10:37 am

72 Temple Owl

i had been advised to drink lots of water after the shots, not sure if that is why i had no issues

10:37 am

72 Temple Owl

i was drinking whilst in the time out afterwards.

10:37 am

gemini_J13

that was good advice

10:40 am

72 Temple Owl

even if a placebo, it worked for me

10:40 am

72 Temple Owl

and also to use the arm, not baby it.

10:41 am

10:51 am

aebmusica

nvm

10:58 am

welki

hey to - no, no issues getting the vaccine. holding off on flu shot, since it costs $100 USD each (converts to about $142 CAD)

10:58 am

mael

OUCH welki!

10:59 am

welki

yeah, the price is high, even without the crappy conversion rate

10:59 am

welki

but grateful we got the bivalent

11:01 am

dcseain

goodness, the Federal Government paid for my bivalent, and my insurance covered the flu shot.

11:02 am

welki

it's complicated, but we both have medicare - that's probably why the bivalent didn't cost anything. other than that, we don't have us medical insurance (other than travel insurance), so that's why they would have charged us.

11:02 am

dcseain

that makes sense, sigh.

11:02 am

welki

when we get back to canada, we'll get the flu shot there

11:03 am

dcseain

that makes sense.

11:09 am

72 Temple Owl

i got the flu shot Tuesday. my doctor had a drive up, no need to get out of the car. after being stuck in a nerve last year, i'm done with pharmacy shots.

11:27 am

hokie carla

interesting, I've had much better experience with the pharmacy than the doctor's office. I even asked the pharmacist last year why they were so much better and she said they hear that a lot.

11:32 am

72 Temple Owl

great to just pull up, open the window, get it and go.

11:33 am

72 Temple Owl

my experiences were good too until two bad ones last year. the one in the nerve had my arm useless. scary.

11:33 am

Uneaixoise

Wish I could have driven up....

11:33 am

72 Temple Owl

also, the personnel in the pharmacies changed.

11:34 am

Uneaixoise

Had to wait nearly two hours....

11:34 am

72 Temple Owl

my regular pharmacy had people i could trust who retired. but my first two covids were walmart organized and were great.

11:35 am

72 Temple Owl

why not just make a dr appointment? medicare pays.

11:36 am

Uneaixoise

Well, CVS is just a couple blocks from my house

11:37 am

72 Temple Owl

and no appointments?

11:37 am

Uneaixoise

Las

11:37 am

Uneaixoise

Yes, I had appointment

11:37 am

Uneaixoise

They had computer problems

11:38 am

72 Temple Owl

how unfortunate

11:38 am

Uneaixoise

Yep!!

11:40 am

hokie carla

11:42 am

72 Temple Owl

12:26 pm

12:41 pm

MollyL

I wonder how many credit card numbers those fake emails from fake Amazon and fake PayPal get when they send out those "you need to update your payment information" scam mails.

12:41 pm

penquis

sadly, too many....

12:43 pm

MollyL

They do a very good job of making their emails look like they are legitimate. It's the urls in the return addresses that give them away and a lot of people don't know how to tell a fake one.

12:44 pm

BzznBea

I hate it that I get them in texts.

12:46 pm

cybernan

not just amazon and paypal, but but internet service providers and banking institutions as well

12:47 pm

cybernan

beware of anything headed dear sir/madam

12:51 pm

dcseain

1:21 pm

marksdolly

1:23 pm

marksdolly

1:26 pm

3:32 pm

penquis

3:32 pm

dcseain

aÃ±o is year, ano is anus.

3:33 pm

penquis

well i can't do special marks...

3:33 pm

Scrabbler

trinitrotoluene = TNT

3:33 pm

penquis

well it blows up stuff like TNT....

3:34 pm

penquis

jimmy walker used to say it all the time... ;o)

3:34 pm

penquis

i think he still does on a commercial....

3:34 pm

Scrabbler

Oh, not the chemical

3:34 pm

penquis

ok....last part sounds like the word that means to eat out...

3:35 pm

penquis

or to eat in....usually used more formally...

3:35 pm

Scrabbler

I finally found it.

3:37 pm

penquis

good...

3:38 pm

Scrabbler

New word for me.

I went for a hike in the park and would like to have < 100 left.

3:47 pm

moolingwa

3:47 pm

MollyL

Are we seriously correcting foreign words due to accent marks?

3:47 pm

penquis

rain all day here....

3:48 pm

moolingwa

sunny, but has been in mid 30s each morning...still hasn't dropped below freezing but close

3:48 pm

Scrabbler

Brrr.

3:48 pm

moolingwa

not so bad when the sun's out...bit rough when it's cloudy tho

3:49 pm

MollyL

And what a dumb differentiation. One error makes it "May this be your best anus ever."

3:50 pm

BzznBea

I'm watching two of the neighbor children sitting on my porch steps having the best conversation.

3:50 pm

penquis

well the word MA in Chinese can have five different meanings depending on pronunciation....and one is mother and another is horse....makes for lots of Chinese jokes, I guess....

3:51 pm

penquis

what are the children talking about?

4:02 pm

BzznBea

What ever children talk about. I'm just glad they have a safe place to enjoy.

4:02 pm

penquis

yes, and nice to see kids actually talking to each other...

4:14 pm

this one comes before the waffle that holds icecream

4:47 pm

Scrabbler

So the 4th letter must be an A...let me search with you.

4:47 pm

cybernan

4:48 pm

cybernan

or the third letter is an e

4:50 pm
