Flubros day 5!

It’s just the flu, bro.

Starting this thread earlier in the day today so that East Coasters can see it more easily.

How do you become a flubro (or flubra) and join the caucus? Easy - all you have to do is correctly recognize that Wuhan Chinese flu is not really that dangerous compared to an ordinary flu and the government/media/health care industrial complexes are overblowing things.

Swine flu killed 12k in one year a decade ago in the USA and hardly anything got shut down. The economic consequences of this overreach will kill more than this virus.

Question: Will you be posting a mea culpa if you’re wrong?

To borrow from Charlie Daniels
We’ll all stick together
You can take that to the bank
That’s the Flubros and the Fearpers
and the Rebels and the Yanks!

A virus once came from the East
To try to bring in the era of the Beast
But stood in its way

Death rate from Kung Flu in the US is running 1.2% and dropping daily. Failed businesses and unemployment rate is a huge unknown right now and is increasing every day.

You’ve put me in a real pandicament.

It is worse than the flu compared side by side, but I agree with the rest.

This flubro stuff is so very juvenile. It took me a week to figure out you guys weren’t talking about HGTV’s property brothers.

Definitely sticking with the Flubros.

And now it is over 20,000 flu deaths vs. 396 for coronavirus. Stop the hysteria!

I want to join this, but I am afraid comparing it to the flu is an actual upgrade in danger status for this thing. I mean the flu kills thousands of children all over the world every year. Can there be a “slightly under the weather for healthy bros” thread?

I mean if I caught this thing, I might actually have to cut my workouts short for a couple of days. Yikes.

Stock market says -3% so far today. That is the consensus of people who put their money where their mouths are.

Not bad, considering all the “sky is falling” talk. We’ll see....

I recognize that the COVID-19 is worse than the flu in the way that every flu strain has been called worse, than the previous, each couple of years than any previous flu virus strain.

I acknowledge that it is much worse in the fear mongering and Leftist pearl clutching panic that has been intentionally fomented to destroy our nation and government.

I understand it will be much worse when it is used as an excuse to pull the plug on every old person to fulfill the prediction of "death panels" from years gone by.

I know it is worse than the flu when it is used as a tool they cannot let go to waste by Democrat Socialist Marxists tools.

Am I one of those guys?

PS: I myself am an overweight diabetic retiree, but "everyday in every way I am getting better" to coin a hackneyed phrase from one hundred years ago.

Why is that important?

Are you thinking this vanity thread is supremely important to all of America?
