Serious question: is this now a TB2K rule with regards to posting? I’m in and out of here so am not up to date on the latest rules and regs of posting. TIA
See Dennis’ post #202 in this thread. He explains it.

Here’s the deal: members arent allowed to hijack every thread and insert Covid vaccine speculation into them. Covid discussion is limited to Covid threads because it was completely out of hand. There’s a dedicated “sudden deaths” thread here on Main where everyone can post Covid vax thoughts to their heart’s content. Just not on other threads.Serious question: is this now a TB2K rule with regards to posting? I’m in and out of here so am not up to date on the latest rules and regs of posting. TIA
Apparently there's a story making the rounds that Harry didn't meet with the king. The palace had Harry meet with a life-size cardboard figure of Charles, and it took Harry 15 minutes to notice. Possibly apocryphal.
That would be “precedent.” You need to work on your spelling again.Oh, and I gather the Queen did Zoom meetings with the Prime Minister during COVID, which makes sense. So, there is a president for doing so.
Talk to Grammerly. I am doing my best. I have managed to memorize some words that I was constantly getting wrong. But I do have an actual brain issue. I'm sorry this upsets you. I am paying good money to make it less of a problem for forum members and me, but it isn't perfect.That would be “precedent.” You need to work on your spelling again.

Homonyms, homophones, and homographs are all from the devil. Just sayin’.
Along with sentence diagrams imposed on us in middle school.

Same except the nuns locked me in a closet that oddly enough had a window with a nice view and was full of art supplies. It probably didn’t help that in spite of my severe dyslexia that I was several grades advanced. I understood calculus in the third grade.Try having dyslexia and trying to diagram sentences. My English teachers would all eventually just look at me, get pale, and say, “Not you. You’re excused. Here’s a hall pass; go do something … elsewhere … while I undo the confusion your questions caused.”
This isn't a form of homophobia, is it?Homonyms, homophones, and homographs are all from the devil. Just sayin’.
Yep, clear.Here’s the deal: members arent allowed to hijack every thread and insert Covid vaccine speculation into them. Covid discussion is limited to Covid threads because it was completely out of hand. There’s a dedicated “sudden deaths” thread here on Main where everyone can post Covid vax thoughts to their heart’s content. Just not on other threads.
Clear enough?
I thought a homophone was something an 88 year old Frenchman shoved up his ...Melodi, I am very used to homophones and misspellings. I live in Alabama.
Your grandmother had a gramophone, an old fashioned record player.My Grandmother had a homophone.
It only payed 78's.
Wouldn't work at all with 45's or 33 1/3's.
I thought a gramophone was that trumpet thing old deaf people stuck in their ears.Your grandmother had a gramophone, an old fashioned record player.
The science is settled, then. Gramophone stuck in ears, homophone stuck in rears.I thought a gramophone was that trumpet thing old deaf people stuck in their ears.
What are you, some sort of gramophobe?This conversation is taking a "fetlife" turn here....

I heard it was invented at a Def Leppard concert.View attachment 460036Gramophone!
Are ya sure?Your grandmother had a gramophone, an old fashioned record player.
A homophone is a word that sounds like another word but has a different meaning and usually a different spelling. Some examples of homophones are: new and knew, flour and flower.
I did not say this.I thought a homophone was something an 88 year old Frenchman shoved up his ...

Ain't that the truth! LOL.I forgot what the thread is even about.
I had to scroll up again to look at the title, lol.
I think I need more coffee
Alvin wants neither a gramophone nor a homophone.That's where the chipmunks came to fame, was when the 45s and 33 1/3s were played on a 78.
It can also be a sign of congestive heart failure...His nickname now is sausage fingers. Serious water retention.

See this page for pictures, down thru the years (I didn't know that even Tutankhamen used one!) of "Ear Trumpets" or "Ear Horns" down through the years:I thought a gramophone was that trumpet thing old deaf people stuck in their ears.
