for the potential seriousness of this problem, I don't think you are correct, but only time will tell. If you are correct, my apologies for doubting you.

Don't be so Canadian!!

If I ever grow up... I promise I will remain a Canadian; I don't know what else to be, and I'm too old to change. I really don't know what's happening, but I can see it getting really ugly, and no one seems to care.
There's nothing I can do about the final outcome, anyway... so in the words of Alfred E. Newman, "What, me worry?", but I ponder.

Time to move on...

Spare a thought for my facial muscles please; having to explain such things makes me cringe.

Do you have to speak while you type? That must irritate your coworkers immensely, more so than a mechanical keyboard.

 

[Guest102023]

I think cringe does not mean what you think it means.

That could also indicate you have natural immunity; consider that a blessing.

Sorry, I guess my eyes rolled back in my head before I got to the second half.

I was watching 60 Minutes yesterday and there was this story on the Bahamas that illustrated what I was talking about. (Granted I didn't make it all the way through, but this was about enough for me.) Some politician from the Bahamas talked about America and the European union paying some sort of insurance for them due to our contribution to global warming. Note not one word about the world's number one CO₂ emitter. Just the usual BAF (Blame America First) stuff.
