Stealing other boards threads... Rusalka listening?

Your question in GQ; ‘At what point in the digestive cycle do the pounds come off when you’re exercising?’ seems alot like the question posted here:

http://www.guardianunlimited.co.uk/notesandqueries/index.htm1

Goto, click on ‘The Body Beautifull’. The top question looks much like the one you posted here.

Coincidence?

I don’t know what’s wrong with cut and pasting this site.

It’s here:

In the search field type ‘notes and queries’ then ‘Body beautifull’

I’ll figure this out. What a waste of a post now…

GODDAMMIT

Moderator’s: please close this thread. The guardian is not allowing me to access the page in question. I don’t know why.

I posted this in ATMB aswell but this seems to work .
Don’t really see it myself but there you go. Have fun :slight_smile:

Oh well, good-eye anyway CnoteChris. Lack of evidence was never a reason to let someone off the hook in my opinion.
So what’s up Rusalka? Stealing other peoples; threads huh? You bastard!! You trying to see if we will get the answer right, or are you just to dull to have a question of your own. Fuck you!!
:slight_smile:

You’re really saving my ass tonight yojimbo.

My point is, it seemed like an odd question to ask, even for the GD board.

While checking the aforementioned site for another post, I ran into a question that resembled the GD question a bit too closely. Look at it, a word changed here, there, same question if you ask me.

I have to ask: ‘Are people stealing other boards threads to seem witty?’

And besides, the way my night is ending up I feel like tossing the computer out the window anyway.

CLOSE THIS THREAD… PLEASE

Ok , I’m bored and waiting on a carpet cleaner to arrive so here goes .

Rusalka posted At what point in the digestive cycle do the pounds come off when you’re exercising? on 07-24-2000 05:31 AM ( GMT ) . ( note it before you posted about the Guardian in MPSIMS )

The first question on The Guardian notes and queries / The body beautiful is “* When you lose weight, where does it go? (no answers)*” .

The rest of the questions on this page are :

*Has anybody ever tried eating themselves? If so, how far did they get? (one answer)

Is it possible to drink yourself sober? (2 answers)

Is it true that living in London has the same effect on your health as smoking two cigarettes a week? (one answer)

Why can I usually sense when someone else is looking at me? (no answers)

As a child I was often puzzled by the creamy coloured things resembling popcorn or bits of cottage cheese which would appear from the back of my throat. What on earth were they? (one answer)

On the day my daughter was born she had Rapid Eye Movement (REM) when she slept. As this is a sign of dreaming, what could she have been dreaming of? (one answer)

Why does inhaling helium make your voice go high-pitched? (3 answers)

I’‘ve heard that endorphines are “natural pain relievers”. Does that mean if i laugh like a hyena during my aerobics classes it won’'t hurt so much? (one answer)

My wife suffers insomnia through what she calls “restless legs” syndrome. That is, she can’'t keep her legs still when she lies in bed. Is this a recognised medical condition? What causes it? (4 answers)

Is there an evolutionary explanation for morning sickness and labour pains? Surely it would make more sense for childbirth to be painless. Or is Mother Nature really a man? (one answer)

What causes that terrible sensation of falling that sometimes precedes awaking with a jolt? Is it true that some people enjoy it? (3 answers)

Do some people really have “heavier” bones than others, accounting for the different weights of people of similar size? (2 answers)

Why is snot green? (8 answers)

Until recently, when I had a cold my nose would stop running when I went to sleep. Why was this and why has this useful feature now stopped? (2 answers)

A man is beheaded “cleanly” - perhaps by guillotine. Is it possible that there follows a period of awareness, albeit of only a few nanoseconds? (6 answers)

How come my mouth goes dry after drinking Cranberry Juice? (no answers)

Alcohol abuse apparently costs the country £3.3 billion a year. Did they deduct the money raised by the government from the taxation of alcohol in this calculation? (one answer)

What is the cause of the temporary chest pain known as ‘‘stitch’’ which sometimes occurs during exercise (especially if one is unfit)? (one answer)

What is the point of yawning, and why do other people yawning make us yawn ourselves? (5 answers)*

I can’t really see the conection betwwen these two questions and even if there was there was no answers on the Guardian site so what’s wrong with asking the question here ?

I would say so.

BTW. Thanks again for reminding me of the Guardian notes and queries . :slight_smile:

Carpet cleaners?? I’m not going to ask…

No problem Y.

The two questions I had in mind were:

#1 Originally submitted by Rusalka in GD:

‘This may seem like an obvious question to a lot of people but I haven’t been able to find the answer anywhere. Does any of the mass you lose while exercising come about through a means other than defecation (ignoring the
effects of water loss)? In other words, do you shed any of those pounds by breathing out the break-down products of metabolism? If so, how much is expelled through respiration?’

#2 Posted in the Guardian:

" When you lose weight, where does it go? (no answers)" .

Now, I don’t consider these to be exactly the same, but it does seem like an odd question to be asking in the first place. It led me to wondering: ‘Do people post other boards unanswered threads to this board to sound witty and intelligent?’.

Considering the postee is new and has no definable profile, it makes me wonder. I might have done the same thing too.

By the way, what the Hell kinda carpet cleaner shows up at 3:45 in the morning anyways…

It’s 9:30am in Ireland .

And John what your thinking is correct “PARTY” , which I wasn’t even fucking at because of working last night but still have to wait for the carpet cleaners coz the other two fuckwits that I live with are still fucking drinking and doing rubberman impressions out in the garden . :rolleyes:

Forward thinking on the carpet cleaners was the right move though the place is/was ( hopefully ) a kip.

Ireland huh. I happen to be Irish. So much so that I’ve always responded to drinking and bar questions in this board, imagine that.

My suggestion to you, comming from a Irishman trapped in Mpls. Mn., move to a place with hardwood floors. You don’t understand the advantages…

Hey, wait a minute, I still have a pending question here. Or was it over there…

That’s what I’ve being doing wrong. What a great idea :smiley:

The cleaner’s here now and pointed out two fucking cigarette burns . Bollocks . Out with the superglue and sissors I suppose . The other two lads are finding it/me very funny at the moment. So I’m going to bed as soon as he goes because I’ll deck one of them shortly .

*yojimbo goes to bed mumbling "Fucking ladylady’s going to be pissed . Two bastards , why can’t I live with a sex mad model who loves cleaning and doesn’t have parties when I’m in work … "

Huh?

Oh, cripes, I can already tell I’m going to be addicted to Notes and Queries from now on. As if I didn’t spend enough time sitting in front of this computer already. Sheesh, can’t you guys post a warning before you link to dangerous sites like that?

Incoming WAG.

So Rusalka saw a question posted on another MB, thought it was an interesting question, didn’t see a response on the other MB and decided to run it past the Teeming Millions?

Three words: B.F.D.

Now you can close the thread. :slight_smile:
