What in the hell is wrong with this newsgroup today?

I'm finding replies to threads in the wrong thread.

For example, in the thread "Christopher A. Young passed away", there is
a reply to the thread about lubricating a car antenna, and two replies
to my silly thread about a shark in a PEX elbow.

Everyone occasionally posts to the wrong thread, but that example is
already three wrong, and there are a few other threads that are all
scrambled up, and dont even come close to the subject. (or even make
sense). The latest replies to the "Dog Whistles" thread is another
example.

It's almost like something got scrambled in the system, not human error.
All of these are from the past 24 hours or less.

I cant say I've ever seen this happen before......

Nothing unusual noted here. I'm using GoogleGroups. Maybe it's your
news server or reader.

I'm rather fond of the McDonalds Sausage

know what I mean when I ask for two SME.

That would be expensive now. What are they over $3 apiece? Of course
sometimes they have coupons 2 / 1 and now they are putting the coupons on
the register receipts. Also breakfast all day. Their revenues are up 5%.

The troll has not passed away. That was another Chris Young used as an
example and morale booster by Oren. The posting have NOT changed in quality,
quantity or content.




Thanks, I did not hate the guy, he was just a total PITA

Well, FWIW, the older I get the worse my hearing has become.

My wife tells me to get my hearing tested but I already know I'm
losing
it. My low range is still good, but the high frequencies are pretty
much
gone.

I've already got a wide range hearing loss, but hearing aids help a
lot.

I kind of like a little less auditory input

It's like that when I take them out. lol


What?


Guy once said that the perfect wife was deaf and dumb and owned a liquor store.


If a man speaks in the woods and there is no woman around to hear him, is he still wrong?

That's a heck of a lot of cholesterol. In NY, they
have a deal, if I buy two SME, cheaper than twice
the price. Two SME will last me through breakfast
and lunch both.

I may be a lardass, but I'm not racist.

The "Passed Away" thread was not started Oren. It was started by 0ren.

Note the difference in nyms.


It's a matter of perception. I write "Hitlery" Clinton all the time and many people don't catch the spelling and pun that goes with it. ^_^

Oh, bother. My public doesn't appreciate me. I
feel so, so, depressed. I'll just go back to
laying in my casket and turn off the lights.
