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.
Is your club song, “Ring around the Rosey?”
Why is that important?
Are you thinking this vanity thread is supremely important to all of America?
“...if you’re wrong?”
He’s already so very, very wrong as anyone watching vids out of Italian hospitals knows.
Will you?
Nope. I'm not asserting anything.
Just asked a question. That's why it said 'Question' and not 'Assertion' in my post.
I wondered if this virus had a secondary payload. Otherwise why bother to put it together in the first place.
this is why I am on FR all day. 😀😀Always can find a chuckle...and these times needs lots of them.
He's an expert in this field and a flubro.
“Basic high school Latin, my good man.”
You’re dating yourself. Most everyone learns Spanish in high school nowadays.
The only thing I don’t like about being a flubro is that Democrat politicians are flubros too.
Anyone who won’t produce a clean bill over this isn’t very worried about it.
Never heard of the flu using every ventilator in a state. But the hospitals in our state have none left.
As long as case/deaths increase exponential this will get worse.
However, if Trump’s Cure works consistently, God’s mercy will triumph quickly.
Flat Earth Society Meeting, Day 5
Plays really well out here in the rural areas, but in big cities not so much. I live out in the sticks where we already chose social distancing as a lifestyle. But to those in the nearby cities of Seattle and Bellevue, they thought attending soccer matches with 40,000 others was ok two weeks ago.
This thread is like Gateway Pundit and DU all in one.
Your question makes me sick. My paltry 401k that was supposed to be something to augment my SS as the years go on has dropped forty thousand in a month and at my age, will probably not have enough time to gain back. I worry about my wife worrying about this.
The horror of it for us, my wife and I, is the fact that I was employed by MCI/WorldCom when Bernie Ebbers committed securities fraud and forced the company into Chapter 11 Bankruptcy restructuring where every penny in MCI/WorldCom stock was made worthless. What little I had built up again since Verizon bought our restructured remains is now tanking. Now we are fast reaching down to the level of losses under President Obama.
Now we have Leftist Democrat fraud.
So, he is not wrong and there will only be mea culpas from all of the fear mongering alarmists who caused this panicked run on the market with eyes wide open. The Democrat Socialist future Commissars will not be sorry in the least.
They sure come up out of the woodwork.
“No one I’ve known personally or heard of has ever died of the flu.”
You seriously think that means something?
All those flu stats for over a century are lies?
I’m not sure if I count as a Flubro, but I’m still coming into the office to work (only 2 of us in about 3000 sq. ft. of office space).
“Yes I will. Will the oh-no Fearpers we have also post a mea culpa if they are wrong?”
You call the people fighting the outbreak Fearpers, but it’s just projection.
However, the numbers say it’s at least 12 times as bad as your average flu under the best of conditions managed so far, and if not for the containment efforts there would be hundreds of thousands infected here in the US alone. That would have crashed HCSs all over the country.
When your HCS dies, 1 in 11 CCP-19 victims die with it. Plus all the people that would have made it if there were beds for them in the hospital.
Worried about the economy? The economy will be fine in a few months unless you FluBros drag this thing on indefinitely with your nonsense. That’s on you, too.
You’ll never get to say “I told you so”. It’s already past that. What’s keeping people alive is the containment and mitigation efforts. So don’t even try to claim it later.
In fact, you should be being blamed for the additional deaths that will result from your BS. Like anybody that dies from catching it at Spring Break - FluBros caused that. Granny dies from the case she got off a college kid that caught it at Spring break - FluBros caused that. She takes her whole Bridge Club with her - FluBros caused that. They infect the local retirement home before any even have symptoms - FluBros caused that. Over a hundred dead in NYC (just so far) - FluBro in Chief, de Blasio caused that. And on and on.
Selfish, solipsistic, narcissistic, with a casual disregard for human life. FluBros.
Since your ski trip or cruise got cancelled, maybe you have time to volunteer at your local hospital. FluBro hospital valet service. Just make FR the beneficiary of your estate for the duration. Statistically, FR would be set for the foreseeable future.
No doubt. At the Catholic prep school in New Jersey that I attended, I had three years of Latin and two of German.
> I’d like to see Some Big Money On This!
I’d bet my 401k, but you said “big money”.
You sound so asinine.
I’m a flubro who thinks your post is stupid.
