Modern medicine is just amazing

You still not learned to read I take it?

can you come up with a new line or would that tax your brain cell too much?

[marechal]

I don't think believing that consciousness survives the death of the body is crazy.

But anyone telling you they know what does happen afterward (heaven or whatever) is just plain making stuff up.

tend to agree with you about the went to Heaven and came back claims. but there have been very interesting near death claims of out of body experiences wherein an unconscious patient is "brought back" by doctors and then tells the doctor in great detail what the doctor and others were doing to the patient.

If your claim is that you can read then please point to the post where anybody here was going for religious groups to be forced to marry gay couples?

[rick49]

[Repat Van]

Copy / paste will do.

Yes, I've heard of those stories. Doesn't really say much, tbh. I don't think "the great beyond" is the operating room this guy happened to be in.

Pig kidney transplant patient leaves hospital

www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-68710229

given the shortages of organs this tech is a potential game changer (add that to 'worn out words')

[marechal]

That transplant patient must be very happy. I imagine the first thing he does when he gets home is rut with the wife.

Makin' bacon.

[perrykneeham]

Haha. I remember that from 1970s tee-shirts.

I remember it from an awful game a mate was determined to make popular. It involved throwing small metal pigs, similar to Monopoly pieces, and getting points depending on how they landed. If one landed on top of another it was a "makin' bacon". The game was utter shite.

[marechal]

A T-shirt I remember worn by flat-chested women: Ittie Bittie Tittie Committee.

[perrykneeham]

Ah. It must have been an American thing. All the tat shops in Newquay had tee-shirts with cartoons that were probably amusing in the States, but left us kids slightly bemused.

[marechal]

Probably. Some guy in high school used to wear a shirt that advertised a butcher/meat market. The slogan on it was "You Can't Beat Our Meat."

[voice]

There's a burger shop in Vancouver called Vera's Burger Shack, they actually have adverts saying 'you can't beat Vera's meat'

I remember that. It was sh*t and not entertaining and not funny yet there were often one or two people who thought it was the greatest thing.
