The 10,000 Best Forum Posts on the Internet Right Now! (Part 1)

Every time I type a question mark my entire block of text is thrown away. Also MEW keeps ignoring spaces and sometimes adds extra letters to the start of some words. I’ve retyped this 5 times already. My original post was deleted. It is very annoying and pressing the backspace button is risky because it might throw away the whole thing. Sigh. It has been a day for me.

That sounds very frustrating and annoying at the same time, enough to make anyone rage. Though it seems more like an issue with a keyboard than a website/forum?

Let’s try this again.

Today I was driving to Krugersdorp for work and had just come to a stop in a queue of cars at the Silverstar Casino robot when a guy slammed into the back of the bakkie at full speed. He hit me so hard that he pushed the bakkie forward almost 2 metres to ding into the panel van in front of me. His car is a total wreck, it’s absolutely mushed. The bakkie has a dent in the bumper :flushed: It’s almost ludicrous how disproportionate the damage is.

Sydney was with me, we both got a hard jolt forward and he bumped into the back of the passenger seat, but absolutely no injuries. He (and I) are both totally fine. We might be a bit stiff tomorrow from the impact but otherwise all is well. The bullbar is a bit dinged in the front, mostly from the panel van’s tow bar. Both myself and the panel van were able to continue driving. I then spent the next 2 hours getting to the right police station and filling out the accident report for all three of us.

I’m using the SwiftKey keyboard. It doesn’t do this in any other app, only when I type in the MEW site :thinking:

Gosh Ani, that’s a bit scary. Thank goodness you and Syd (and the other drivers too) are okay. Still. Watch out for whiplash - even a mild accident can cause problems.

Don’t know about your MEW typing problem though. That’s very weird.

Morning peoples.

Sheesh @Ani I’m glad you are okay! It could very easily have been much worse. People drive like maniacs out there.

That is bizarre @Ani and I am sorry I didn’t see your follow on message as I logged off for the night after my last reply. I am glad that no one was hurt and that all parties involved are good, including yourself. I have had issues while browsing the forums on mobile too, but nothing as extreme as you’re describing, I use Gboard.

Sooo happy you’re all okay! Do get your car checked out by a professional, though, quite often the damage seems incidental on the surface, but then there is structural damage that you don’t want to leave. Less likely on a big bakkie, but very possible on the smaller ones.

Definitely a bit stiff today but more in my back than my neck. I’m sure the insurance will also want to have the bakkie checked out properly.

Regarding the typing issue - this is my fifth attempt at typing this post. With the previous four, each time I typed a full stop it deleted everything. I just kept trying, and eventually it starts behaving itself. It’s very weird.

YOu shall have to moan at the Grand Poohbah!

My morning started with doggos going nuts for no reason, the dad figure being pissed since the DTSV was acting up (I had to rescan the channels) as well as just pissed in general especially about the kak vodascum signal we have.

Only got 2 hours sleep, any tips to get mucus out of your lungs? Each time i placed my head on my pillow i would go into a coughing fit, i can’t think straight at the moment

Mmm I also have SwiftKey on my phone. I am typing this message from my phone and I’m not having any of the issues you have.

Have you tried restarting your phone? It’s very weird.

ACC 200 loosens mucus. If you have that drink it 3 times a day.

Also when you cough spit the mucus out dont swallow it etc as it doesnt goe down and stay away from dairy(for a couple of days) as it makes the mucus worse

thank you, yes, I try my best to cough it up and I am staying away from dairy, don’t think I have ACC 200 but I have Corenza C which seems to be basically the same, I just hate drinking those things, taste awful

Ja so they will make you cough because they are loosening up the mucus. If you lie down try and lie on your side not your back otherwise you will need to sleep relatively upright for a couple of days.
