  1. How about the guy who wore a KKK hood as a mask to a grocery store in California? This is truly stupid and wrong. At least the workers at the store made him take it off
  2. Hey, not all Karens are dumb asses! Who came up with that insult? I know some really smart Karens . I don't get how the protesters can say they have a right to infect other people just so they can get stupid stuff at Target. Love how some nurses in Denver stood up to the screaming meemies. http://www.dailykos....campaign=recent https://www.vox.com/2020/2/5/21079162/karen-name-insult-meme-manager Basically, it’s the origin of the meme. Apparently, Chad and Kyle are the male equivalent. She’s not the first dumb Karen. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N0PpEoKHlO0[/media] Ok I'll stick with Dumbass anti vax bimbos. :laughing guy:
  3. Sign at protest "Reopen Pennslvania Give Me Liberty or Give me Death #We the peaple! :laughing guy: Next up the Clorox cocktails
  4. While I agree with the sentiment, not all Karens are batshit crazy
  5. And Murray Head sang the role of Judas in the Original version of Jesus Christ Superstar, although most on this board will already know that ;)
  6. Not a chess player but I recognized the line from One Night In Bangkok...great song :D
  7. I don't know how serious you are, so I'm sorry if I failed the internet test of taking things too literally, but isn't that question rather reductive? It's not like there are only two possible modes for all health care workers: at work or asleep. Maybe he's on a break? Maybe he considers helping to slow the spread of unnecessary social contact a kind of health care service he's providing? Is crowd control his job though? If people are creating problems at the facility, I would think that's a matter for the facility's security, or the police. How is this woman engaging in unnecessary social contact? She's in a car. Nothing creates worse conditions in public then when people take it upon themselves to "police" other people. If he thinks what she's doing is "wrong," on a public way, call the police and let them handle it. If she's doing it on hospital grounds, call security and let them handle it. In Lansing protests, the cars were blocking hospital entrances. https://www.independ...s-a9468756.html So when does your right to protest more important than ambulances getting into the hospital? Why were they doing this? Perhaps because they were fed up with the idiocy? If you're blocking the entrance to a hospital with a vehicle the police will move you. Is that what this woman is doing? Why isn't he blocking the car directly behind him? Do we want individuals deciding for themselves what constitutes "idiocy" and enforcing that? The guy in the photo is a nurse. There are countless lawsuits against nurses for negligence resulting in people's death every year. The point being is no one is infallible just because they work in the health care industry. I have no idea what the woman in the photo was doing. What if she doesn't work for a company that keeps paying it's employees during the quarantine? What if she operates a small business that's going under and she can't pay her mortgage? She has no right to question why her business is closed but liquor stores (as they are here in MA) are open? It is a simple push back to the protestors, I understand people want their rights respected but how does a protest that purposely encourages irresponsible behaviors really help? Yes they are angry and want to have their say but why is it necessary to flaunt the warnings to socially distance? It is foolish behavior and I am glad someone stood up to them. The picture has gone around the world and made the point very well.
  8. He was in Willy Wonka and the virus got him... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tMZ2j9yK_NY I knew him from the Goodies, which we used to get on CBC right after school. They were silly and surreal and they made me laugh like hell at the time. And we can certainly use laughter, especially now. Here’s young Iron Man trying to cheer his pal up: This usually works for me: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vnmDSmS0pFk So damn dumb, yet so damn funny. Damn! Just what I needed, a good laugh and Monty Python is spot on :D
  9. Here is something that shows people appreciate the health care workers. A flyover of the Thunderbird jets Saturday, in Colorado, the route went over 40 medical centers so they could have staff on the roofs to watch. I love seeing these planes, that was one of the highlights of playing Air Force when our team was in the Mountain West conference. They would have a flyover the stadium before the football game and they brought some falcons too. God bless those workers who may have to care for those thoughtless idiots who will spread the virus and put innocent workers at risk. http://kdvr.com/news...rbirds-flyover/

    tiger king

    Absolutely!! This Joe Exotic is a sick human being. I happen to know someone who works at a wild animal sanctuary that took in some of the tigers Joe abused. He is a horrible person and doesn't deserve any fame for his cruelty. He would take newborn cubs away from the mothers even though it meant their possible deaths just so he could use them for a petting zoo. Won't ever watch this, it really is disgusting to give this guy his 15 minutes for such behavior.
  11. Happy Anniversary :ebert: :clap: Glad you are here :hi: :guitar:

  13. That author looks good; is it the kind of series that is better if you read it in order? I will have to look for these! Yes it is best to start at the beginning, the first one is Naked in Death. It is set in a future New York, some cool ideas about gadgets and stuff. Eve Dallas is a hard nosed homicide cop and it is a good procedural type of mystery with some romance thrown in. It is actually written by Nora Roberts which surprised me. I started them about 6 years ago and on a re-read, there are 47 (and counting) books and novellas in the series. They are a great escape :) https://www.goodread.../41029-in-death
  14. He was the new guy. They can get another new guy. No, just No. Geddy said there will be no Rush without the 3 of them. Geddy and Alex may make albums again some day but not as Rush. Period. I agree. It was mostly a joke about Neil being the new guy. Sorry, just a little touchy. I had just watched an interview with Geddy and it had me feeling really sad knowing at the time he gave the interview he probably knew about Neil's condition.
  15. Love that song. i love that photo too. too funny Love it too, let's see if this video will work

  17. This may be a bit lame but tonight I was reading some blog posts on my phone (politics stuff) and I got ticked off and said out loud "that's the stupidest thing, why would you do that?" then accidentally dropped my phone. When I picked it up, Google assistant had come on and pulled up an article about why do we do stupid things! It was hilarious to me and I laughed pretty hard. :laughing guy: Ah the joys of technology :eyeroll:
  18. Happy Birthday Blackhawkrush!! :dweez: :madra: Hope you had a fun day ! I had to laugh when my Mom tried to say Toews name, it came out Twain..guess that was some southern twist on it, she was originally from Georgia. :D Ah, Duncan or during the 2010 playoffs..Duncan Teeth :P Watched this last night:
  19. Had another "aftershock" 4.2 tonight. They say is it is related to the main one on the 18th, but all I know is I am on edge again.
  20. That is a tight band, hadn't heard that song by them before. Saw them in concert once, what a show! Funky for sure :7up:
  21. Leave that Thing Alone :geddy: Ged really wailing on the bass
  22. That crowd was amazing and the energy they gave off seemed to get the guys rev'd up too. I still love that they sang along with YYZ :D
