Since we're Americans, we don't just sit around in a panic. We meet crisis head on, and laugh in the face of adversity. And beside, we could use a little humor these days. I'll give a try and folks can chime in where appropriate.
* From now on, folks watching the Walking Dead will take notes.
* Fighting climate change is on hold, but we could sure use a little global warning right about now to hepl kill this bug.
* a run on toilet paper? WEll, if you run out of food, remember that it doesn't taste like chicken.
* Nations across the globe are closing their borders. Guess we're all racists now. Perhaps Mars and Venus will sue.
* One good thing about the Corona virus: AOC's 15 minutes are finally over.
* with any luck, Joe Biden will be quarantined until after the election, while Bernie Sanders will get stuck in Cuba looking for a cure.
It’s getting near time to put The Stand in the dvd player...
BTW, I did my weekly shopping yesterday and today. In most of the stores I shop at regularly are either light or out of the expected in things like cleaning supplies, cold medicine, bread, peanut butter and mac and cheese. However, they are all out of flour. We use a lot of flour normally. I know the trends of the flour supply at all the stores but this is foolish. Based on when I normally see in carts over the years, I am sure very few of the people buying flour will know what to do with it. I’m sure many think they will be making bread when that runs out in the stores. However, the yeast supply looks full. They could be making cookies but the cookie ingredients like chocolate chips and things are stocked in full. It’s just odd.
BTW, is it poor taste to cough as I walk by a liberal hypochondriac at work?
If you do decide to do a ping list put me on it.
I laughed out loud over this paragraph from a Mark Steyn column:
“~So much for blowing hot. Blowing cold, it seems unlikely to kill as many people as the Black Death, despite following the same route of spread (from East Asia to Italy) and being dependent on the same containment measures as seven centuries ago (quarantine). But that’s because the best defense against an influenza pandemic is rising temperatures - or global warming. It seems an odd time for anti-Biden protesters to be rushing the stage demanding the slaughter of cattle herds when bovine flatulence may be all that stands between us and the abyss. For my own part, I will only travel with a flatulent Holstein as my emotional support animal.”
From Facebook:
Thanks a lot doomsdayers, I just had to wipe my ass with a sock.
Here in Jersey the ticks are out. Now we can get a cornea with Lyme.
NOT FUNNY Obama said he'd bring in foreign Ebola carriers to be treated in US hospitals.
Now how did I just know that you would find this thread? LOL
Before Coronavirus I used to cough to cover a fart, now I fart to cover a cough.
Im no scientist but if this thing is communicable, that means WE CAN TALK TO IT!
I all ready gave exit my list but thank you for asking.
• A run on toilet paper? Well, if you run out of food, remember if you don’t eat, you won’t need toilet paper...
LeBron James says he will not play basketball without fans. The NBA has decided to honor his request.
Dunno. Is is poor taste to wet your fingers, fake a sneeze, and flick droplets on the back of neck of the tall guy who avoided a hundred empty seats to sit in front of little ol' you in the theater?
When someone gets the Corona Virus, they want to take a plane trip somewhere, go on cruise, go to the casino...
