I once misread a thread title as 'Holocaust Dinners'. The title of the thread was actually 'Holocaust Deniers'.

Jagger's whole career was about impersonating James Brown. So that isn't actually hard to imagine. :lol:

Damn, I misread thread titles all the time but now that I've seen this thread I can't think of any that I've misread recently. :lol:

I don't think I am very good at dating as somehow I am not able to know what women are thinking unless they tell me. So I guess I am single because of that?
I think I missed out in my teens as I never started dating until I was around 35 so I never really got to work out how women think. Why do women assume men lie and there is an alterior motive?
Anyway. There is nothing I can do about it except for put it down to experience and hope in the future that I can learn how other people think, so I can become their boyfriend without upsetting them somehow.
I don't know how I upset ladies. It comes as a sudden shock to me when the dating is over.
What can I do? Do what I used to do for most of my life and avoid all ladies? Actually I avoided getting too close to anyone!

Ummm…

This is all very interesting, but...I think that you posted this on the wrong thread.

Uhh, did that just happen? I'm giggling, because I think I actually have been accidentally seeing postings from the politics and religion part of this forum because it gets put into the list of most popular or active discussions.It kinda makes it look like everyone is talking about that stuff when that may not be whats happening at all.Also does anyone know if I can post to other members of any of the forums here but not in the forums. I clicked on something that makes me believe that that may already be built in to WP but I'm not sure.

Not sure what you're asking. But I think that the answer to your question is "yes"...there is a way to "private message" individual members of Wrongplanet, so that you can converse with them without it being seen in public here on the forum threads.

For example if you click the person's name (like "Naturalplastic") another screen comes on and you will see something that says "pm", and you click that.

Sometimes my misreading makes me laugh

Latest one a few moments age (and Im not sure why)

We've had a thread about "meth gators", so cannabis rats wouldn't be to farfetched.

I don't know about Black Jagger, but I've heard of Black Madonna.

Yeah, it's not really imagining the singer Madonna as a black woman.
