Well well well well. A miracle happened, I now have made a vaccine appointment. :) Things started moving very fast, my town apparently got larger vaccine amounts than expected, and my age group (early 40s) could now make an online reservation. Without my friend (from another town) who noticed it...

Mine is almost identical to yours. :bigsmile: Some of the claims were totally alien to Finnish thinking. "Schools should not make classroom attendance compulsory." The government decides here when attendance is compulsory, and I've never heard anyone suggest schools should be allowed to decide...

Have a really happy birthday! :)

Ah, now I see the reason the household economics teacher of junior high told us to break eggs in a separate cup first before adding them to the food. I've never had a rotten egg so I stopped doing that years ago.

Oh, to be paid to take the vaccination. Here people are still desperately waiting for theirs but it isn't available for love nor money.

I still don't understand this. :blink: Maybe it's a cultural thing. The prog-listening guys I know aren't incelly at all. Besides, I consider prog-listening a definitive bonus in a potential boyfriend.

Yeah, some names do. Not in any loan words that I can remember, perhaps some really old ones.

I'm one, but apparently the gentlemen around here didn't know that when I was young.

Finnish really could use å more often, because it doesn't use it at all. :D (It's the "Swedish o")

Today I've been mostly fixing balcony lamps. :( I have a long chain of small star-shaped light bulbs that I wanted to put on my balcony. Had I known what a hassle it was, I might have just left it. Trying to fit the ladder on a small balcony filled with stuff, moving that stuff contantly...

The concept sounds really funny because it's so extremely rude. :lol:

Helsinki has begun vaccinating people in their 50s with no risk illnesses. Whatever. I won't get my hopes up until I have the jab on my arm.

I guess the reply about the solo section in Prodigal Son is always the best choice. Whatever the question, really.

Thanks for the tips what to say if someone inquires me if I have a girlfriend. :D

Sorry, I don't have one. Would give you one if I had. :)

Hmm, I thought the early phase was less interesting than this one (although I have to admit I missed the first couple of months). After all, these are the top albums that are competing now. :) I'm really curious to see which ones win!

Very kind of you! :) Whether the pork eaten/not eaten should be thin or thick skinned, I do not know. And yes, it's a metal forum but there's been disagreement if votes on GMAC have been metal enough.:D

Well, I need to write more clearly next time. :bigsmile: Ask Jer if you need details about the pork.

It's true that a more thick-skinned person probably cannot always tell which bits are hurtful, simply because stuff like that doesn't hurt them, so how could they know. It's also true that different people find different things hurtful, so there can be no exact rule on what should be left out. I...

There's something I'd like to say, and it isn't directed to Jer as a person, I just quoted his post. :) I often hear nowadays that people are too sensitive and certain stuff shouldn't hurt anyone's feelings. The problem with that is that people are different when it comes to sensitivity. Others...
