Yup. Daughter and I just both probably had this last night. So miserable.

Yeah, that is convenient. If you're on a PC, though, you can use Alt+0151 (on the numpad) to insert it directly.

V is di-di-di-dah, which sounds just like the opening phrase of Beethoven's 5th (or V) symphony.

Reply to comment by JimblesReborn in TIL In 1930, to make way for a new building, the Indiana Bell Building, weighing 11,000 tons, was moved 16 meters and rotated 90°. The work took a month to finish and did not disrupt the building's essential services, nor its gas, water, and electricity supply. No one inside felt the building move. by LPercepts
Wow, don't often see Gas City mentioned on Reddit.

That's been my experience with it before, too. But food poisoning doesn't really make sense, and my other daughter was also sick a couple of days before, and I've heard there's something going around. So I'm at a loss for what else it might have been.
