Not really, but we did start our own obscure website that really needs eyeballs and questions!

We are better than the average advice site- We are the real thing.
Advicefortheliving.

Anyway; I'll be making totally unrelated posts here. Politics? HAH! We're liberal Americans. Make room, I'm an opinionated 'Mercan.

Professional question? Get Good Opinions. 15 years doing it professionally. My colleagues have more experience.

This post reads a bit like spam Dr.Tom. I'm sure it's not meant to. For reassurance, are you here to promote your site or to participate in the board?

By the way, I've put in a request fixing your link. You might want to check the Wiki so that you know how to link in the future.

Welcome to the board though!

Hello Dr. Tom,
I currently have no way to access the internet, so I will be asking my question here, and you or one of your peoples can give me the advice here. So, my question is this. I've recently found a John Byrne thread in the comics forum that I wanted to add to because Chris Cross has old covers Byrne did back in the day where he supposedly drew very racist cartoons where the upc codes would go, and I was going to link to that in the Byrne thread. But I found out it was locked. I'm not sure why, they don't really lock a lot of stuff here at Barbelith. So I need your advice. Should I go to the policy section and see if I can find a thread about why the Byrne one was locked? Should I pm a comic moderator and see if they have the skinny? Should I start a new thread, or is it pointless because everyone already thinks Byrne is a dickhead? Thanks again Dr. Tom.

I think you'll find that we already have an agony aunt, Auntie, and he merks all comers.

Ask von Mises.

Actually, there's a question.

How does one merk, exactly?

OK, Dongfled, your diagram shows that one needs a visor and three bags full of wool to merk but you haven't told us how to merk. I am losing faith in you, JD.

Jack Denfeld

You adjust the visor until you can pull the wool into the flux capacitor. Duh.

Sorry about comming across too spammy. Being new here, I thought that this might be the one plave to flog my site. I fully plan to participate in the group independently though .

Specific questions in my field of expertise are welcome and will be answered here, but I'm more likely to start threads about politics.

(And please don't pull my Merkin...)

I just read some of von Misus. I'm afraid I've got stiff competition! Sex AND a free market! Who could ask for more?

And while I'm the psychiatrist, not the sex therapist, I'm sure, Haus, that you can find just the right person to help you out...

I think I'm going to like it here.

Dear Dr Tom,

My shrink is pestering me for sex. How much should I charge him?

Dear Dr Tom,

My partner would like me... to be the cat.

Should I glass him?

Dr. Tom

1) Xoc: That's always a personal thing and telling you might leave me open to charges of price fixing; but it should be charged by the hour or fractions thereof.

2)
L/e/g/b/a R/e/x : I think I need to point out that I am a veteran of the United Stated Air Force Medical Corps, and was officially addressed as (Yes) Major Tom.

Of course that's not what the Incirlik, Turkey Hash House Harriers called me. To them for some strange reason, I was called Master Bates...something to do with "Psycho..." I was grateful to have contracted Hepatitis A and get my Hash Name changed to "Old Yeller..."

3) Ganesh: I'm no expert in UK politics. Just watch out about the oil massages, though.

uh, merc is slang for murder or kill.

a contraction of mercenary i think, but i'm not entirely sure on that point.

Dr. Tom

h, merc is slang for murder or kill.

`I don't know what you mean by "glory",' Alice said.

Humpty Dumpty smiled contemptuously. `Of course you don't -- till I tell you. I meant "there's a nice knock-down argument for you!"'

`But "glory" doesn't mean "a nice knock-down argument",' Alice objected.

`When I use a word,' Humpty Dumpty said, in rather a scornful tone, `it means just what I choose it to mean -- neither more nor less.'

`The question is,' said Alice, `whether you can make words mean so many different things.'

`The question is,' said Humpty Dumpty, `which is to be master -- that's all.'

Has news of this fine fellow reached Florida yet?

The Guardian article that your link linked to seems to have been eaten by a stray dog.

Never heard of him here in Six Toe County, FL, but sounds like quite the character given the comments. I always thought Barefoot Docs were rural Chinese guys...

Is this the Bob Barfoot who flogs coral calcium? (I suspect not, but a cheap imitator that googles well) I can go down to my local Sam's Club and get coral calcium on the cheap... Not that I would. I'm too busy buying fish oil pills.

Ach, so it has. That's a pity. He's a sort of life advisor too, but a spectacularly irritating one. The linked article was his first attempt at online advice, and was very funny. It must've finally given up the ghost, though.
