Any East Lansing peeps hear there might be a bacterial meningitis thing going around brought by a um student?

Overtime strains change and vaccine sensitivity has to be raised so it's important to be fully vaccinated and up to date with all the latest vaccine available for particular age groups. Other things to keep in mind is hygiene

Can’t watch that movie. The near constant high-pitch screaming from little Dakota Fanning makes me want to stab my ears with tomato stakes.

You missed the original, more frightening in B/W or the radio broadcast, which was more frightening.

I’ve heard the original and a recreation of the radio broadcast, though it’s been decades. Pretty sure I saw the original tv broadcast when I was in my single digits.

Commas are not enough, dear ...

You mean, of course, that you all were vaccinated.

I thought it was a requirement after that.

I worry she won't graduated live, but get her diploma sent, I worry about the variants, I just wanted to get to May watch a graduation, pack up her apartment and get out of dodge. Hopefully this is a rumor.

You got the fucking idea. Are you as arrogant in person as you are on a message board?

Oh, please.

It was pretty mild as comments go.

It was all about me reading it three times before I understood what you were trying to say.

Insert rude comment back to you here ...

It was mild, but so many of your comments are dripping with arrogance. I was wondering if that's how you are, or trolling internet persona.

I could see her comin' off the top rope a la Superfly Snuka.. finishing Trapper off with either the Las Vegas Leglock or a spinning toe hold. Maybe the Mongolian stomach claw.

Either way, Trapper best watch his back.

Really?

Well, I never think I'm being arrogant, however I do talk in the first person a bunch and often use counterfactuals, so maybe it seems that way to others.

Could be I just read too much Dorethy Sayers  & P.G. Woodhouse.

It isn't intentional.

I do try to keep my more caustic comments to the other board.

Alright. It's just something I've noticed and been annoyed with. You remind me of a good friend/old roommate of mine. I love her. But damn she is unintentionally condescending/arrogant to people.
