Last 24 hours have been quite stable. So, could you guys confirm if your browsing is normal.. or faster? :D

Just signed on. So far so good. No timeouts trying to load. Thanks for all that you do.

In your profile, at the top right are double arrows pointing backwards. Click those and you can expand your profile to include your past posts. I don't think all of them got transitioned though, at least not all of mine.

That can't be the case. I see at least 29320 posts tracked as per your post count from your profile. If you click on the ... in between the page numbers, it will give you more page numbers to choose from.

So is there a name for the STUDY OF THE ORIGINATION OF WORDS?!



Hey Stunt

Sorry to poke my nose in, but I believe the term you are looking for is 'ETYMOLOGY'

Stay healthy dude  ;)


"dude (n.)
1883, "fastidious man," New York City slang of unknown origin; recent research suggests it is a shortening of Yankee Doodle, based on the song's notion of "foppish, over-fastidious male" (compare macaroni). The vogue word of 1883, originally used in reference to the devotees of the "aesthetic" craze, later applied to city slickers, especially Easterners vacationing in the West (as in dude ranch "ranch which entertains guests and tourists for pay," attested by 1921). "The term has no antecedent record, and is prob. merely one of the spontaneous products of popular slang" [Century Dictionary]."

FLAMER, How the hell do you know this stuff and manage to fix and improve it!?

Do you gotta be smart .... or can I do it too!?

Right now I can't even find the oblong space at the top where I can place an address and then push a button ... and go right to it.

So now I got to click on the history thing and find what I want to go to providing it it's still listed on that history thing/list.

I'm not asking for free advice .... I just want to complain ... but surely not for the work you're doing to fix up this House of Nuts who like o complain no matter what.

I'd like to learn just what ya do ... but I'm not smart enough to do it, Dude!

BTW ... Where did that word "DUDE" originate from? How did it work its way into the English vocabulary?

You are smart so I ask ya this.

So is there a name for the STUDY OF THE ORIGINATION OF WORDS?!

Thanks  ... and all that stuff, Flamer Dude!

Flame on!

hahaha.. this made my day. Thanks man!

Hypothetically, everyone can pick up what I do with the right training and experiences :) When it comes to practice, there is only one FLAMER :D

----------

What is the history thing that isn't working for you?  Can you explain it a little more please?

F.L.A.M.E.R

I had to log in again for some reason, and now the site is running as quickly as it ever was

Now can we get the YouTube button back please?  Or is there a workaround I'm overloooking?

Thanks for all the hard work (and of course thanks Ron)

As an old timer here I miss the legacy look  :( Any way to get it back via themes or something?

Am I being a party pooper?

I liked the legacy look as well but I am now used to the change.  If it goes back I will be messed up again.

Thanks. My mistake. Not sure anyone is interested in reading almost 30,000 of my posts....but, you never know. That's approximately 3,000 a year and 250 a month! I really need to get a life. ;D Here's a scary thought, my epitaph will show my Getbig post count.

Thank goodness my celebration of life will be a private memorial by invitation only. Guess who are not invited? ;) There will be no morbidity, no dead body, no pall bearers and no eulogies....just friends and family getting together after the fact. It will be like a party.

Sure, why not. When I am dead, it will make no difference to me what is done with my ashes. It's not like I could object anyway.  :)

Things are much better now, thanks.

One issue, I can't upload a photo in my profile. Haven't been able to for several years now. It remains blank.

Not sure this is what you mean, but the only photo connected to my profile is the avatar image. Not long ago, I decided to change it. This is when I was reminded that it must be of a particular size or it won't upload. You may want to see if this is the problem. I did notice you don't have an avatar.
