    I know you're trying to prove a point to me by using 'cryptomnesia' in a sentence, but it is certainly not every day language we use.

    I believe everyone is getting off track of the thread the OP intended.

    You should do us a favor, then, and buy yourself a dictionary.

    I was looking through the various clubs and clans, and it got me thinking back over the years of all the forum contributors who have graced these boards and how the tone of the forums has ebbed and flowed in that time. The mood took hold of me and I began trawling through a few of the lists of names of bygone chess players and forum combatants. Like tombstones their profi ...[text shortened]... l and I sighed deeply and thought to myself: fuk this for laugh, and fuk them, losers.

    Hmmm I dated a woman, back in the 60s, who did some maudlin in London and Paris. Or was it the 70s? 🤔

    And you speak for them all?

    I somehow doubt it.

    That was my point, Rusty.

    You should stop saying "we".

    Sticking that sentence into a Cuisinart and hitting 'puree' wouldn't make it any more unintelligible. Use your sentences. Don't try to say everything in your head at once.
