So what if...

Kaos · « **on:** March 11, 2020, 06:59:10 PM »

So what if come August, there's still about .00034% of the entire population with symptoms of this ridiculous virus? That's the number now. Of that less than 1% have a severe case -- for the rest it's a fucking bad cold. So out of every 500,000 people you touch today, one -- one -- might be carrying that particular germ. But I digress.

What if you haven't wiped your ass in two months because Margaret Queefwaller bought 500 cases back in March clearing out every store shelf and isn't sharing. What if you haven't worked, eaten out or seen another human being other than your family because there's a chance that you MIGHT, if you interacted with half a million fucking people, run across the ONE in that bunch who has symptoms and who sneezed in your face?

What if Auburn had a football game and nobody was allowed to come. No, wait, that wouldn't work either. The players couldn't be around each other or the coaches.

I've about had it with this absurd fucking panic. It's ridiculous.

100 years ago the Influenza buried 25 million in the first 6 months. We are nearly at 3 months and we have 4600 deaths worldwide. Itâ€™s going to have to put in some serious work to be even half as deadly as the flu.

I have been told that unless you embrace the hysteria and take extreme measures you are ignorant and of the same ilk as the climate change deniers.

As I told someone yesterday Iâ€™m far more afraid of my fellow man and his penchant for hysterical overreaction than I am the illness itself

Just a side note on the Coronas. Saw something along these lines on the bookfaces when it was announced that Tom Hanks caught the viruses.

You've had aids, been stranded on an island with a volleyball, been shot by Germans, crashed a plane into a river, been kidnapped by pirates and now you have the Corona virus? Dude, please stay away from me.

We ban travel to China and Europe, cancel major sporting events and suspend sporting seasons in the name of preserving life but we donâ€™t close even a single abortion clinic for the same reason.

Well, I went back to Ohio
But my family was gone
I stood on the back porch
There was nobody home
I was stunned and amazed
My childhood memories
Slowly swirled past
Like the wind through the trees
Ay, oh, way to go, Ohio
