I'd say most FAs like stretch marks. Some won't, but ultimately it's the gainer's privilege to like or loathe their own marks. As TheFeeder says, though, it's a 'badge of honour' in the community

I had a high BP, I think it topped off at 145/95. Not health-threatening, but an indicator theretofore. I have gained (unintentionally!) from 150 while at uni to 230 now, and I have a sedentary lifestyle apart from cricket in the summer.
Last year my doctor put me on Rampiril. I don't feel any different, but the effects have been dramatic - I usually test at about 105/55. Sometimes I;ll forget to take a pill, and there are no ill effects from that - in fact the last time I tested I hadn't had a pill that day so it obviously takes time off the drugs to get back to a high BP.

Bottom line? The Drugs Do Work. Obviously I don't want to end up dependent on them, but I'm on the lowest dosage, and it's taken me from borderline high to perfect (most 'healthy' people are higher than me!)

In professional T20 cricket, the players come out to music they choose. Mine would be 'Dead From The Waist Down' by Catatonia, because I don't use my feet enough when batting

Bingo wings for the win!

I have deleted a pro-pot and an anti-pot post, as they have no relevance here.
Bottom line: have your opinions, live by them, but don't air them in an inappropriate forum.

There is a perfectly good thread devoted to this topic, so I'm locking this one. Please try and avoid duplicate threads.

Well done, Paul. Don't forget the 'Gainers' section where you can blog for free on your gain.

Co-worker: 'One sugar in your tea?'
Her: 'No, it's cold out, better make it 2'

Settlers? Haven't played in ages. Top game though. Anybody else got wood for sheep, or is it just me?

I play Scrabble regularly, not that I'm an expert or anything, but I'm pretty good on the 2-letter words and I usually get about 1 bingo per game.
