Absolute horseshit. As Taz says, we won't stand for this bullshit much longer and indeed the youth has already broken it almost every day since it was imposed.

I am noticing progressively more people out and about. They're either going to have to loosen the reigns or clamp down hard. This wishy washy shite isn't working and the people that are doing what they're told are getting the ump with it.
I'm so happy angry Magic is back.
That's the key, with the average level of compliance with the measures, it's working, no need to come down on the rebellious minority as a matter of urgency. The question is how long before the people who are following it all start taking back control through a combination of resentment at the selfish minority and (more significantly IMO) their own increasing inability to cope.
Let's see how this shitty weather affects us in next 2 weeks.
I am angry. I am in the absolute prime of my life, the happiest I've ever been, the most curious I've ever been. I'm not so angry at Corona, obviously, but the pathetic way our shithouse govt has dealt with it. Shinners comment on the earlier page about us doing it 'the british way' is a perfect description.Quote:

The wishy washy approach is probably the best way of doing it, really. If most people follow the rules but a few people take the piss, that's better than either a) having to put in place the massive infrastructure required to enforce a stricter lockdown, and the authoritarian atmosphere that would result, or b) opening it up and letting covid dance a light fandango through everyone's lungs.
It's also the way that takes the fucking longest.Quote:

I see plenty of people when I'm out exercising but that doesn't have any effect on me.
And it sounds like she fisted it in.Quote:

Oh shit, flat earthers were right.
I don't see a curve.
It's been flattened.
Probably got her to sit on it.
I'm sure the world is normally higher res than that.
Oh aye and you've seen it from space, have you?
Yes.

Greggs is back, we're saved.
This is rapidly turning into a bit of farce. Businesses and people initially closed/locked down before the government were officially telling them to and now the opposite is beginning to happen.
Ninewells in Dundee is absolutely empty. Get the fucking pubs open. Looks more empty than a Saturday morning in A&E.
Virgin seems to have shit the bed today.
They all are. My step-dad who drives for out of hours says he's starting to get mong visits again. It's on, lads.Quote:

President Donald Trump has said he "can't imagine why" US hotline calls about disinfectant have risen after he suggested injecting the substance to treat coronavirus.
The governors of Michigan and Maryland on Sunday blamed the president for the spike in such calls.
"I can't imagine why," the president said, moving quickly on. "I can't imagine that."
When asked whether he took responsibility at all for the increase in calls, Mr Trump replied: "No, I don't."
Mong.
He shouldn't as well. He was doing his usual rambling bollocks, and he used the word 'disinfectant' because presumably he couldn't remember any scientific terms for what he meant, and then all the retards started lolling to each other about drinking bleach.
Sure, but he could have taken the responsibility to say "look, what I was actually talking about was obviously x, not drinking bleach, you mongs." Instead he went on TV the next day and gave it the old fourth grade "bUt I wAs BeInG sArCaStIc" excuse.
The more interesting part of that diatribe for me was his proposal to inject UV light into the body 'through the skin or some other way'. I would love to know what the other way might be. Shone directly up the rectum, not touching the sides?
Y'see, Elon Musk has an idea ....
Hopefully it's drinking bleach.
He's gonna call the virus a paedo.
There was an entertaining exchange last night where an Asian reporter tried to ask a Q in broken English which began by quoting a letter by Kim Jong-Un and she barely got 5 words out before being shut down and laughed off :D
If we've learned anything through this ordeal, it's that Trump doesn't know what sarcasm is. Maybe that's why he is the way he is. He's been taking all the sarcastic comments around him at face value this whole time.
Virgin still fucked today. It looks like their DHCP servers keep renewing the connection, rather than any congestion or throttling.
It's Dickie Branson holding the nation to ransom until he gets his bail out.
As if he listens to anyone/anything that isn't his own voice.Quote:
