I'm not sure if I should be pleased or embarrased.

I guess this replaces the Old Fogey Thread, where we all just complained about aches and pains?

This one will be more useful, but maybe less humorous.

What's humorous, in a strange way, is that with all these threads grouped together I see many, many threads with faces ("thread you have posted on") next to them.

I'm wondering where the mods will draw the line.  Will they move any thread that contains the word "sick," "puke," "hurt," "ow," or "medicine" over here?  And what about the mental health issues?

I'd worry about this but I don't want to get an ulcer.

I guess we've started enough threads about illness of any kind impacting our work that they decided they needed to be parked in their own spot.

Since we usually start our own threads, they won't move any unless they are about actual illness, and not "I'm sick of this job!"
