According to the Urban Dictionary it is the plural of ginny:

Which puts a whole new twist on Mike's post. :-D

Your auto correct must have a mind of its own, since according to
Merriam-Webster, there is no such word, ginnie. I think it is just
messing with you. I loathe auto correct, which I regard as a snobbish,
superior type who always thinks it knows better than I do what I want
to type. Trouble is, it almost always gets it wrong, but it never learns.

has to be intuitive!

Mike, you crack me up. First of all "ginnie" is hilarious but your
honest attitude is rather endearing as well. How can I not like you
even though I agree with you on practically nothing? LOL

I wonder what percentage of people who saw the initial headline/news
report of this purported wonder pill believed it could do what it
claimed. It would be an interesting demographic study to know that,
for me at least. I, being the sceptic I am, dismissed it out of hand
immediately but I am not sure if this is a good thing or a bad thing
since I hadn't even bothered to read further than the first sentence
or two. Now, I see my skepticism was justified (no surprise in this
case) but I wonder where my doubting nature came from.
