The Coronavirus thread

Dude. You need to either take a deep breath and turn the hysterics down a few notches or you can have a mandated quarantine.
Your next post decides your fate.

Damn! Ya'll banned Spike? Yeah, that **** was annoying but that's all it was. Perhaps there was more to it.
 
Same old, same old from the Trump squad. Still, it's a bit startling to see it exposed like this.

GroundHog Day Tibsy.

Always with the same.

I said a while back that he is trolling everyone. I still believe that. I mean, the guy is cheering Cuomo and hating on Trump. He is the biggest Trump homer on this board. No way he turned just like that.

Yeah, his corona virus **** is annoying, but so is mostly everything else he posts. Just gotta see it for what it is. He is trying to antagonize people. He does it all the time. And, apparently, it is working.

It's one thing to troll, but when you say it should be required that your family members over 70 go to internment camps to be infected by a disease if you think a certain way, that's crossing the line. I mean really, that's disgusting.

Second biggest, but yeah I agree. No one does an immediate complete 180 instantly like that. Unless they're just plain unstable. Schizo maybe...

He was just screwing around. I didn't take that seriously for one second.

I agree it's distasteful, but the dude is looking for a reaction. He was getting one, but apparently not enough of one so he went over the top. No way did he mean that.

On the off chance that he meant it, then he has bigger problems than the corona virus.
 
I don't know how anyone reads his posts every day and then thinks he is serious about something like that. Everything he posts is over the top. I'm surprised anyone batted an eye.
 
Just shows no one is too important that they have immunity from punishment. SNS will be back in a few days, rested and full of new information for the masses.....

Good point.

Diff'rent strokes for diff'rent folks, but I find him about as entertaining as a hemorrhoid.

Never said I found him entertaining. I'm just saying I'm surprised anyone noticed.
 
So Fox News is State TV after all?

No, Fox News is just the other side of a biased two sided coin. Always have been. Everyone knows that even if they won't admit it.
 
So Fox News is State TV after all?

No it's not and that wasn't my point some dip-**** on Twitter taking snip-its from peoples commits on a ever changing situation is nothing but embarrassing , if people can't rise above the D&R usual bullshit in a time like this all humanity may be to far gone already.
Even you have toned down the bullshit lately and made some post I 100% agreed with.
 
Simon Property Group just shut down all of their malls in the US. Chrysler, Ford, Honda, and GM are shutting down all of their plants. Totally ******* insane.
 
Daytona Beach voted to let bars and restaurants stay open. Like I said, Flawda leads the Nation in "we don't give a ****".

so if someone needs/wants a new car, wait a few weeks for those prices to drop?
 
Not to be Spike, but for everyone saying it isn't as bad as the flu, we are getting there at least by some measures. Using the mean between the high and low estimates for flu deaths annually worldwide we get 1284 deaths per day, we are not there yet for Coronavirus but we are approaching that number for a daily total worldwide yesterday was 817 and climbing steeply. I am by no means saying to panic but it is something we need to slow down or it will get ugly particularly when combined with the annual flu numbers. We might just bring those down as well with these actions.

I think most are in agreement with you here at this point. And no one can be Spike but Spike. :playful:

You can practice and demand that bars and restaurants practice "social distancing" without mandating that all bars and restaurants have to close or go to carry out only. The CDC and WHO are going to decimate the global economy, cost thousands of businesses, and bankrupt an incredible number of individuals and families by the time this is over. Where was this concern and caution when 1 billion people world wide were infected with H1N1? We are not going to hide people from this virus forever. When this mutates and re-emerges in the fall or next spring, are we going to shut the country down again?
