August 15, 20241 yr I am full of a bastard of a cold, was going to blame it on yet another COVID variant but it's not, booo! Still, sounds a bit nasty this.

August 15, 20241 yr Author 1 hour ago, gonzo said: Can we not say monkey anymore? haha something to do with it originating in Africa and it being used in racist connotations. WHO had a phase out of the name over the year, some scientists thought changing the name wouldn't be a great idea and could cause confusion. I just used Mpox as that's what it's now called. Apparently it's not technically from a monkey but a rodent. Should have called it Rodent Pox. Either way, it's a nasty fcker.
August 16, 20241 yr Yes, it's a nasty disease. Apparently, easily vaccinated against (using small pox vaccine). Immediate screening of everybody arriving from Africa.
August 16, 20241 yr Could we maybe pronounce it differently as was the case when the planet Uranus changed its name? Could be called Morhn quey pox maybe?.

August 16, 20241 yr I've got a pair of old M boots that my daughter was going to put on eBay as they still have appeal to a certain look (not comfortable at all). Would she have to advertise as M boots?
