    You are also in danger of derailing my thread [a comment you have made about me]. If you cannot stay on topic feel free to cease contributing.

Midway through her third trimester, she couldn’t take it any more, and refilled her prescription." However, we are not informed as to her reasons for ceasing to use it during her pregnancy. . You simply leapt to an assumption.
      A) I'm still awed by the highly technical language - "as her bump grew".
      2) Why would she stop taking the pain medicine during pregnancy for any other reason than that pregnant women should be extra cautious with smoking, alcohol, drugs, etc. It's a perfectly common sense assumption, not "leapt to".
      C) "refilling a prescription" is a purposeful act that should have been preceded by a consult with her doctor.



      The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

          There is far more evidence of you being a pervert than of me being a haruspex. (yeah, I had to look that up. )

            Well done now you have learned a new word. However, as you seem to wish to derail this thread by making accusations against me, please cease to contribute. You are becoming something of a bore.

              I find such words are generally used by somebody who has been educated FAR beyond their intelligence, and they need to sound smart.

                    It's called following the evidence to where it goes.

                    I guess this is yet another concept that you are unfamiliar with but as soon as you Google it will soon be regaling us with your knowledge.

                      You're not going to miss anything. It's pretty clear that the article wildly misrepresented things in order to present the narrative they wanted.

                      Further, it's also obvious that H_A selected it because it allowed her to push her apparent belief that we're teetering on the verge on falling into the most ridiculously imagined theocracy ever -- an exact copy of The Handmaid's Tale

                        If an individual is well educated they do not need to "sound" smart.

                        As for my requesting you leave, you do not appear to realise that you have done precisely what on various occasions you have accused me of doing; namely you have attempted to derail a thread by introducing extraneous topics.

                        Now if you wish to start a thread accusing me of being a "pervert", you are, of course, free to do so [assuming site rules permit].

                          No you are quite wrong, "following the evidence to where it goes" is not the definition of a haruspex.

                                Lemme 'splain how this works...

                                When you kick somebody out of your thread, then you continue to address them, it can be considered an invitation for them to return.

                                A) I'm fully aware that I can start a thread on any topic I wish within the decorum of this board.
                                2) I have no desire to explore the extent to which you may or may not be a pervert - others here are well aware of posts you made that opened that door.
                                C) Somebody who has to keep defending their "smartness" generally doesn't appear as smart as they wish to appear.
                                iii) Having an education is no substitute for common sense, the ability to use logic or reason, or the ability to clearly communicate, all of which you seem to lack.

                                I know a lot of people who have tons of book learning, but haven't got the common sense God gave a piss ant. :Shrug:
