Quote from: Barrister on April 06, 2023, 11:21:26 AMBut what about the rainbow flag?  The colours in the flag didn't stand for anything in particular - it just stands for "all the colours".  Which made it a pretty good symbol for what they were trying to express.
I hate to tell you that originally all of the colours had specific meanings and it's the most embarrassing, 70s, San Francisco hippie gay meanings you can imagine - so we've all moved on and don't like to talk about it. Don't look them up :blush: :ph34r:

:lol:

I looked them up.

Okay yes they're pretty cringey, but they at least don't represent specific identities or sexualities which would necessitate adding more colours.

I don't think I can eat spicy food anymore as much as I still like it.
The acid impact is just too bad.
Had a taco with Algerian sauce yesterday and was drooling like a dog for the rest of the night. Tried to have a beer 2 hours later and just couldn't get it down.


Is that the right thing for this thread? :p

Got up to pee last night three times.
One time, i thought I was done, but then felt more coming. So I guess that's four times?

No need to look them up had you watched Cruising, with Al Pacino.

If your doctor still does that, it's either because he enjoys it, or because he thinks that you enjoy it.  :P

Never heard the term before, but I'd assume it's someone who specializes in taking care of you as you're about to die.
