I guess most people just don't get his jokes.

I'm having a very hard time buying the 42 average age of first time non-IVF pregnancy. I'd be pounding the under on that if there was a way to audit all their charts over a large sample size. I think either miscalculation or miscommunication is more likely than that being true, but I suppose anything is possible. If you're willing to post the name of the practice, I'd be interested in which one it was.

I am pretty sure he said that was the average age for the specific clinic he went to, that maybe specializes in this age group? That doesn't mean it is representative for the general IVF population per se.

Yeah, I got that.

That's why I was interested in which practice it was. If it was just a general Ob practice, it would be hard to believe. I also have a number of friends and family in Cit's neck of the woods. All of those with kids probably delivered in the same hospital that Cit's group primarily uses (may or may not have been the same group though), so I was curious if any of them were bringing the average down.

cit,

Low blow! I think if you read most of my sperging here it mostly consists of continually explaining how things that don't exist, don't actually exist. Plenty of smart people believe insane stuff (actually slight positive correlation with IQ and being a conspiracy theorist), just someone has to fight the war on someone being wrong on the internet on a H&F subforum of a poker forum where no one actually plays poker anymore.

All,

Sorry for the confusion on FWF being dead. He is dead as in he doesn't post anymore. Not like YTF dead. Apologies for any angst.

Yugo,

I dunno. I think I made fun of people who argue about math when they just make **** up, but I guess that was the broad class of "poker noobs". Cause apparently poker magically makes you good at math or something.

I've actually met a few people from 2p2. El Diablo, SmileyEH, J Brown, etc

I'm social media friends with a few more on a floorbeer app!

Can a mod move mly's blog to another forum? It upsets me and I don't have the self-discipline to not click on it. And it doesn't even remotely relate to anyone's health and fitness. It's been hundreds of posts since there was a workout or a diet log entry.

DU,

I try (minimally).

Renton,

That's a big ol' negative there, chief.

If you use an add-on or extension with the ability to block certain things on the page (but definitely not ads), you can also block entire threads.

What does evolutionary theory have to say about this type of weakness?

Nobody's perfect. And I doubt I was alone in clicking just to see what outrageous **** was gonna be posted next.

Could be worse.

Living in Asia American women can only force you to read their threads.

If you lived here, you'd probably be forced to marry her.

But only in her late 30s as a last resort, if she isn't able to hook any men she actually found sexually attractive and potential positive earners during her 20s and early 30s.

Evolutionary? Not sure....but it is:

1. FOMO
2. Schadenfreude

Pick one. Or both more likely...

I had a dream where I was murdered by a changeling. Is this some sort of evolutionary biology response?

I did watch the Hellboy remake which involves a changeling, so perhaps this is my subconscious telling me that I should just kill myself rather than willfully watching such ****ty movies?

Please advice jdock.

Seems perfectly reasonable to kill oneself over such a bad grammar mistake, especially if one is at the cusp of doing so anyway due to ****ty taste in movies!

Pretty sure I know the difference, so I think I've internalized MLY-esque typos/grammar now which is prob not a good thing.

Yeah, like when grunting at the gym starts as a joke and now you can't control it. It has taken a life of its own.

Cautionary tail folks!

It is only a matter of time before this grunting extends to putting on socks.

True recent quote from my wife, "All that grunting made me hoarse." I'll leave it to the crowd to decide if it was at the gym or putting on socks.

Is "putting on socks" some new slang for ****ing?
