  1. Still, well played.
  2. Vitamin D sourced from sunlight may appear to increases skin cancer risk because sun exposure is relevant to risk. However, any claim of association between D and cancer is spurious (= false). If you hold constant in multivariate analysis all the individual factors deemed as all other inputs implicated in skin cancer, that is, teased out for analysis of association with cancer, including the measurable aspect of D for the sake of thoroughness (although it’s not a known input) sunlight nevertheless clinically and statistically emerges as a genuine independent variable for skin cancer incidence. We won’t get into metastases as it does not add to this piece. Vitamin D supplementation is one single nutrient. That a single nutrient on its own could have a statistically significant and clinically significant impact on the development of a disease that requires so many inputs is a stretch. If one were to claim the relevance of Vitamin D, a multivariate analysis inclusive of all nutrient intake would be required to support it because arbitrarily singling out one nutrient without adding the others introduces problematic bias. That said, cancer can be studied as a categorical binary variable: incidence vs no incidence. Vitamin D level is measurable. No research has uncovered an independent association between Vitamin D and cancer. If a correlation were to occur it would then need to successfully and rigorously satisfy all the assumptions of causation. Not happened and will not likely. Similarly, a single person with skin cancer history may avoid sunlight and as a result increase Vitamin D supplementation for clinical benefit. A recurrence or exacerbation would be associated with an increase in Vitamin D levels. It would be an artefact of the range of inputs outside of Vitamin D consideration, not the least of which would be an existing predisposition to skin cancer. The relation to Vitamin D is, again, spurious.
  3. What other cum is there if your tub of yoghurt is empty?
  4. Correlation between what facial features? Or correlation between what relatives? Relatives tend to possess features in common. Otherwise, an association between two variables is not relative; the correlation simply exists or doesn’t at a grade of magnitude. One could assess, say, the association between facial length and width ratio to aggregate diving score among divers relative to that same ratio and aggregate artistic gymnastics score among gymnasts. These would be objective examples. It’s not lost on me that such an exercise would be ridiculous. But you could go on Twitter X and yield both agreement and loads of eye rolls commenting on subjective impressions of facial features in competitive sports. My sense is that the latter yield would be more overwhelming.

    Off the deep end and can spell Depend. Passes his smell test. This merits a snack.
  6. The other 50% a hot jizz’o’cutie tub?

    Oh, you’ll break.😘
  9. You hit the mark if you are referring to the agita of boxing gender and the steaming piles of bull shovelled around it by ignoramuses. These Games were the anti-Barbie of the year.
  10. I think he’s an amazing athlete. Does he need a heads up that you plan to ‘stalk him home’?
  11. I’ll have a go. It’s weird to comment, regarding Olympic athletes, that you are not a fan of the physical development that evolves from training. But then choosing Olympic competitors as a pool from which to articulate your preferred body types is weirder.
  12. It seems the thread is making the endless preliminary rounds of genital controversy.
  13. Attendendum, Domine, cum gratiarum actione.

    Merci. Much appreciated @hornyfrog. It doesn’t assist me because I’ve worked it out like the average person can. It may help some less familiar because it convincingly debunks the annoying ill-conceived myth that the fee paid inevitably correlates with degree of malfeasance, as if sexual fun must exist in a war zone or on a needlessly anxious stock exchange floor, horns bearing down and claws swiping up. The theme will inevitably persist well past everybody’s Depends phase.
  15. Especially a garnishment involving Colonel Mustard in conservatory while waving poker ominously.
  16. I think the meta message is don’t just keep the unwrapped Magnum beside you and pass it by. After you’ve dropped your load and descend, you could be kicking yourself. And like for ambrosia, don’t let it sit out too long.

    It’s Grimm, Princess, when you have to resort to tapping out the tightly shut shallow box of fairy tales.

    Jeez Louise. Finally. What does it take to get a fake litigator out of your feed? A village running in circles tripping over itself. And he’ll still be checking in with a pitcher of Kool-aid and a plate of apple wedges offering plenty of sleep.
  20. Doesn’t like nice builds. Interest not divers. I’d say, Cyndi, they don’t all just wanna have fun.
  21. This Canadian has had the recommended Imvamune inoculation prior to Vitamin D supplementation shots. The predictable anti-vaxxer shade:
  22. I was correcting a binary concept as upthread the conclusion appeared to be possible spousal exclusion according to Thai inheritance law. For sure, as you advise, check the small print as a national or resident farang prior to scratching out your last wishes on the Foodland napkin if you wish to spare your beneficiaries subsequently running through Agatha Christie plot lines.
  23. Are you staggering when using tumblers? I assume that when you shake or stir the cocktail those metrics land at 100% and Schweppes has long ago fizzed out of business.
  24. But do offer the anorexic type the signature Parisian chocolate muffin because you never know whether he’ll take a break from restricted intake.

    Little known feature, possibly? Just a thought. Those of reputation stature may be excluded? Full disclosure: One can simply and easily skim over content by those with a history of limited substance according to assessment. As such you can bypass content you’d rather not have to flyswat away whether it shows non logged in, or alternatively out of sight in the proper receptacle you patched in. Sometimes, though, the invisible could have generated some of your best material. With apologies to Lagoa. It takes little to benefit from the venue. Just be open and respectful. And grateful.
