The Mediocre TITLE FAIRY thread :: Change my title, please.

Jay, when you casually drop a reference to your memory problem into a post, of course people will want to know what you're talking about, but we don't want to pry. Only GibJock and I were rude enough to ask.

Best wishes (again) for climbing the rest of the way back.

Looking back, I didn't mean to drop the reference. I make comments like that to people all the time now, trying to put some humor into it. I see what you're saying though. And it's not rude to ask, it shows interest.

Thanks again!

Damn bruh, it just seems you're always here. I wouldn't had known. Glad you're on the mend. I figure you're in your late 50's, seems too young for such issues.

Thanks Chet. I'm 63 now. I used to be in my late 50's though! I was here, and posted, but what I wrote didn't all make sense. I figured everyone was too kind to point that out, or you figured I was hitting the bottle when posting. I did go back and delete the nonsense though.

Jay, I don't recall any posts of yours that didn't make sense. That's not to say my memory is perfect. But if you'd had a conspicuous streak of nonsense, I would have noticed. Maybe you accidentally produced humor?

That is possible. A couple posts didn't really follow the topic. A couple could have been taken as humor. And some were missing words. I left the ones that made sense, but deleted the posts I felt were odd.

I would wind up deleting 86.7% of my posts using your criteria.

Glad to see you’re on the mend Jay, those two missing years probably aren’t worth remembering anyway! Shows the value of having a close friend too that looks out for you.

Are you sure it would only be 86.7% and not really be 86.8%?

I was thinking closer to 88.6%

Ever notice how many posts by other people are missing words? Even journalists do it. I often see articles online with short words missing. "To" is a favorite. They get paid for what they do, but they don't check their work!

Jay, this is essentially a sample of what you might have missed over those two years. Wow, I'm glad to hear you're on the mend.

Sorry couldn't resist
