Title: Contest idea!!??
Post by ocnprl on May 3rd, 2009 at 5:41am
I think, over the next couple of months, we should have a contest to come up with a new name for CHs! Seriously, especially do away with the word "headache" and come up with something more descriptive and professional for the ignorant. We could even have the winning name submitted for the 2010 dictionary for new words of 2009.
What do you think? No more generic etc. name...just come up with something real. It's about time this misleading term is more properly represented.

Hell as much as you rely on cut and paste instead of an original thought, I figured you were smart enough to check and see if suicide headaches was taken.  Guess not.

You have completely missed the point of my post, but this does not surprise me being that you are trying to find fault in someone listing a source within their post.  But if it is original thought you are looking for...It is plainly obvious that you are trying to insult my character with this remark.  I think it is offensive that you are allowed to continue with this kinder gentler charade.  I have seen numerous threads where you have berated people and their ideas time after time.  You have harassed people through the PM's relentlessly in complete violation of DJ's new standard of conduct, and nothing ever comes of it.  Why, I do not know, but I can tell you my thoughts on it.  It is complete bs that you are allowed to continue with this opprobrious blather, and others can have their profile locked or terminated for telling someone to get their boxers out of a bunch.  I have seen you scare plenty of people away in their first few posts with your condescending remarks.  Why you continue to get this preferential treatment is beyond me, and it is an absolute insult.  But, I will not be surprised when it is allowed to continue.

That is so not true.... as to be laughable.  No one ever got banned by DJ or locked by us for telling someone that. Seems there  is a lot of folks around here who like to cause trouble.   ::)

I still...after 11 years here, scratch my head daily and wonder why people can't just get along..jeeze.

From what I red I think it is caused by nerve sensvitiy, people with it say that chewing or just touching face can cause an attack of short pain.

Thing is... it is curable : / they just have trigeminal nerve surgery which is about moving away the main vein from nerve, by putting in between teflon 'balloon' like small objects, making vein not to touch directly when pulsating (becoming larger and thiner) the nerve.

Or so I red.
