Covid 19 - We are all screwed - discuss

[DooM_]

This is the most irrational shit I've seen in my entire life.  If you want to severely restrict the elderly and immune compromised people I would have no problem.  Ban visitation at nursing homes and hospitals.  Let them have special hours in the morning for grocery shopping.  Have them limit contact with most people. I would understand that.  Shutting down the entire country and putting millions out of a job while you crush private business and destroy peoples retirements is beyond ridiculous.

Because this is 10000% being done on purpose..


Tell me how exactly this makes any sense?

How will the landlords buy food?

They are evil and rich so they don't deserve to eat.  Only the noble poor leeches of society should eat.

This will go down in history as the largest world wide overreaction ever.

Time to seriously put the phone down and get off the internet.

Yes.

I dont have emotional attachments to other people, I will be OK..

Oh, and people in their 80s dont "die before their time", they are in their 80s, thats when people die anyway...

Ok. So who will feed you, if your handler die by this virus? Who change your diapers, who will wash your shits?

63 pages of the ramblings of some drama queen named "Army of One", lol. I took a break from GetBig but fortunately things are still funny here.

I got sepsis in August from a surgery gone wrong. I'll take the WuFlu over that any day. Because of the antibiotics my red blood cell production took a dive and for a month breathing felt like I was permanently living at 10,000 feet. My surgeon said I was 24 hours from attaining room temperature. So yeah- I get what severe illness is all about.

95% of people who die from any variation of the flu are typically already lung , kidney or high blood pressure marginal. A common cold can do them in. The real crime in this BS pandemic is the massive overreach of governments based on literally a tempest in a tea cup.

 That my friends is what we really need to be concerned about.

I almost never get sick. I'm the oldest person living in my house and of the age of people most serious affected by the coronavirus. My adult daughter, son-in-law and adult grandson seem like they get sick every other week, yet my son-in-law has taken it upon himself to dictate what the rest of us have to do to stay safe from the coronavirus. Go figure.

63 pages where everything I claimed would happen a month ago is happening.Again its about the effect on society and infrastructure.It doesn't matter that most won't die from it, but you can keep focusing on that if that's all your IQ will allow.

Many people seem confused and if they are not old, obese, a smoker etc then it won't effect them.I am none of these things, I'm more worried about the effects on infrastructure and the panic that will set in.

do you have dead people in your house?

[Primemuscle]

do you have dead people in your house?

What makes you think that? Of course I don't have dead people living in my house. For one thing, if they were dead, they wouldn't be living, would they?

[friedchickendinner]

Journalists trying to give Trump a tough time because he calls the coronavirus the Chinavirus, well it's from China, duh!

Think it would be RACIST!

No one implied they lived there Prime. He asked if they were there.

That was my point...

you are the oldest living person in your house..

Note: Pro bodybuilders only live to 50 anyway so they need not fear the Corona.

[Primemuscle]

do you have dead people in your house?

Oh I get it. Do you have dyslexia?  I wrote, "the oldest person living in my house" and oldest living person in my house mean different things. The second phrase implies there are dead people in the house, while the first says there are other people living in my house. I know, it's nit-picking. But to make you happy, I'll be more precise. I am the oldest resident of my house. Better?  

[friedchickendinner]

2827 new cases and 41 new deaths in the United States

New deaths include:

2 new deaths in Santa Clara County (California): a man in his 50s and a man in his 60s

No, dyslexia has nothing to do with understanding context and grammar, its a word blindness of sorts..it has nothing to do with general intelligence

An intelligent man like yourself should know that..

If I were an intelligent man, I might have known that. Since I didn't, I guess I'm not that intelligent after all. I do have mild dyslexia though. Are dyslexics intelligent or stupid? I don't know. Do you know?

My late wife was my editor (never on Getbig). She was great at it. Now that she's gone, I fuck up what I write all the time.

Don't you love what it says in the subject line of this thread, "We are all screwed" as if we didn't already know that. If the coronavirus doesn't screw us, something else eventually will. We are not immortal.

Here's a little ditty to cheer you up.
