IMO, many people aren't aware how distinctive their written words are. Not necessarily in a post or two, but over time, patterns become apparent. Maybe related to how they structure sentences/paragraphs, how they use/misuse punctuation, the type of topics they get involved with, or their attitude in direct response to others.

I get a much younger vibe. I don't recall that other person posting polls, either.

some people argue that stoking division is an intended consequence of the c-19 vaccination program. Pfizer didn’t list it as a side effect, but the messaging was clear.

At any rate, there are quite a few new inane weirdo trolls around here lately. Never imagined we'd see a poll as stupid as this one.

Ride shirtless year round sans sunscreen, but this summer the sun seems rougher than usual. People have been getting sunburned more often, it’s not just me seeing this phenomenon. Avoid riding between 11-2 if possible.
as for sunscreen containing stuff that’s bad for you, of course it does. Listen to your gut.

I spent 10 years being a softball dad. I found that the difference between a cyclist tan and a softball dad tan is the hands. Softball dads have tanned hands. Softball players, meanwhile, I have only one tanned hand.

Just had my yearly checkup and found out that to be fully vaccinated you need six shots at this point. I decided to stop at three. Number seven is in the works for the fall season.

I'm getting more of a CheGiantForLife vibe.

"Adults 65 years of age and older: May receive 1 additional bivalent mRNA vaccine dose at least 4 months after the first dose of a bivalent mRNA vaccine."
Thus, for me the first two shots for the original COVID, then a booster. I skipped the bivalent shot as I actually got COVID during that time period, so I felt I had natural immunity for a period of time. So, at four if I would have gotten the bivalent, and then it looks like four months later I could have had the bivalent again. Up to five now. I agree not sure why the doctor said six, other than for 65 and older you could get a bivalent every four months if you are compromised or your doctor recommends it. For the "so what" question, I went into my annual physical not really understanding what the current COVID vaccination was. When the doctor stated six I was taken back some. I just stated that in the post for information, no other purpose.

As this thread has moved far from its original topic, and all COVID conversations are to be only made in P+R, we are closing this thread.
