Correct. You'll start breathing after you black out. Also, you'll probably fail to even hold your breath that long. Takes training and a LOT if will power to be able to. You know that very uncomfortable panicky feeling that starts after a while when holding your breath? When that gets going for real, you are not even halfway to blacking out. Our body has strong feelings about breathing and is pretty good at letting you know how it feels about the lack of air. Or technically, the build up of CO~2~. You can somewhat bypass your body's CO~2~ detection by hyperventilation, but the end result is the same, you start breathing after you black out.

Signed a while ago, turns out. If you haven't and you're a EU citizen, go do it now.

Streak is to run naked publically Egg is to throw eggs at something Moon is to show your butt publically And toilet paper is to throw toilet paper around someone's house usually. If that happens to you and you have concrete tiles on the roof, get it off before it rains. Just saying.

Bit lucky on that last guess, but I was thinking about exactly that just before, so my mind went there automagically. Skill? ESP? Coincidence? Dumb luck? YOU be the judge. My personal guess is divine guidance. I am the golden toad, chosen by a god to spread the good word. To find out the good word, solve the puzzle.

Uhm, right. My point still stands, though. You can't lift any story about this because of what that would drag with it. There's always questions, who is to blame, who didn't do their job, what was the motivation of the gunman, lots of little threads to pull on without even trying too hard. If that does become a big story, then the questions are inevitable and no one wants to answer questions about a clusterfuck like that. No one can see a winning angle with any certainty, so they just drop everything about it like the hot potato it is.

Only Trump wants it, and he can't have it, poor guy. Makes my day.

Don't remind me of fucking Y2K, please. The amount of code I checked for compatibility still gives me nightmares. Some nights I still wake up screaming from sheer boredom. Not really, but it wasn't fun.

"Forgetting". They do not want to start pulling that thread and I suspect that it is because of instructions from above. No one wants any focus on it. Republicans because of why would a republican wanna kill Trump and general gun control? Not an area where they want speculation to start running. As for the Democrats, investigation into what the fuck the secret service was doing will land on them being the sitting government. So under the carpet it goes. Lone maniac and nothing to see. Move on please.

Let's! I had a beard for neigh on 20 years and can't wait to have a smooth face.

Ironically, out of three brothers, I'm the one who can grow a decent beard. 🙄 Or could, rather.

I did my first lazoring 5 days ago and I can't feel much difference, but some of my darker beard seem to have thinned out a bit. My beard is ginger with some gray, white and blond hair mixed in. They expected to be able to get maybe 70-80 percent with the laser. I just hope I have the same result as you in a week or so. Facial hair is SO last season.
