The You Game!

< also hopes for Cairnie's speedy recovery, coming down with anything always sucks

[Ambidextroid]

< has no cream in the house for hot chocolate so < subbed the cream with a double shot of Bailey's. The resulting drink is quite incredible and very Christmassy tasting and < implores you all to give a Bailey's hot chocolate a try.

< wonders what will happen to the Manipulate the Image thread, since they're already 2 submissions that use the Razorbeard image.
< laughs at the fact that < chose the Santa Ray image almost a year ago.

[Cairnie]

<'s PCR came back positive and thanks everyone who gave well wishes.

[Elite Piranha]

< doesn't completely understand what PCR is (a second test to validate the first one?).
< sends positive wishes to Cairnie.
< has turned into Tily < needs 5000 Tings.

[Cairnie]

The PCR test is the one that's sent to a lab while LRF is the one that looks like a pregnancy test. < is feeling a bit better though thanks.

< appreciates the explanation < also found this chart that explains the entire process.
< is glad ^ is feeling better.

Here in Ireland, only PCR tests were officially sanctioned until very recently. Rapid antigen tests were derided as "snake oil" while the rest of Europe was making effective use of them!

< supposes < had better bow to the inevitable and officially change the image and set up a poll

< has turned into Tily < needs 5000 Tings.

< suggests switching to Bégoniax

< suggests switching to Bégoniax

< is not a big fan of the Bégoniax rank either. So, I guess < needs to win another contest or embrace one of them .

< recently learned that the original "snake oil" may have actually been a real treatment for joint problems due to the high volume of omega-3 found in Chinese water snakes.
< went to Birmingham yesterday for the German Christmas market and bought a 1/2 metre bratwurst and a 2 pint stein. Fun night but <'s caught a rather bad cold from it and can't go in to work today.

< must recommend hot chocolate with green Chartreuse, then!

<'s PCR came back positive and thanks everyone who gave well wishes.

< wishes you a speedy recovery.

And you, though < hopes it's a just a cold!

[Elite Piranha]

<'s typos are out of control.

[arnoldfranklin]

<has been hesitant to post lately and is glad to hopefully start posting again
<is making first post on this topic

[Hunchman801]

< is glad that ^ made that choice!

[Fifo]

< says hi!

[PluMGMK]

< welcomes Arnold to the topic!

[Elite Piranha]

< has been tired recently.

[PluMGMK]

< wonders if it's the effect of less sunlight? But then < isn't sure if ^ lives at a latitude where that's significant

[Elite Piranha]

< thinks ^'s avatar is pretty cool.
< has been busy recently < thinks that must be the cause of exhaustion.

[PluMGMK]

< says thanks! Like < said in TTQ, it might help < get into a more festive mood! < can't remember who made the avatar, it might have been <

< thinks being busy is a good complaint to have, unless it's almost-round-the-clock crisis management like < was involved in lately…
