Best way to break at least a fraction of these fucking idiots is to mock them directly. Bill Gates has done this not because he thinks that the public at large want to know if he's been vaccinated, he's done it with one group of people in mind. That's why his photo has him with what looks like a shit eating grin under his mask and no needle in sight. 20 years ago before the advent of the internet, anyone sitting in a pub spouting the shite the anti vaxxers or flat earthers do, would have been roundly and soundly laughed at for their pish and that would have been that. Now though, they find each other easily and with each other comes safety and validation in numbers. A big old fashioned round of pointing, laughing and going 'enjoy your night mate' is definitely what's needed with them. No point in trying to deny, engage or reason with them. So may as well laugh at them. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I say, best to just point and laugh at these fucking moon-howlers. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was spotted and he was told to stop. So he stopped leaving early. He also stopped arriving early to unlock the gates so everybody could get into the car park. Somehow I think that matter got resolved. Who locked the gates at night? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Distant Doonhamer Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 A certain irony that one of the last acts as a doctor by Richard Freeman who was the cycling Team Sky chief medic might well prove to have been giving Covid vaccinations yesterday.https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/cycling/55774324 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billy Jean King Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 You are right, but i've got zero confidence that, even in the scenario you describe, the SG will adopt such a laissez faire attitude. I've got every confidence we will be among the, if not the, last (certainly in Europe) to be restriction free, and will not make this move until after England do so.Given the vaccination supply issues now surfacing in the EU with both AZ and Pfizer, the UK will be vaccinated long before the majority of Europe. Spain's PM already publicly saying they will not be welcoming overseas tourists before September based on 70% coverage. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post jagfox Posted January 23, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted January 23, 2021 There's been a lot of debate about anti-Vaxxers lately. I am now coming forward to stand up and say I'm firmly in the anti-Vax camp. There, I've said it! I have my reasons, like many anti-Vaxxers, but it's important that everyone approaches this sensitive topic armed with the information THEY know to be true. I know my truth and I have first hand experience that backs me up. I had a Vax once and it was the noisiest ,shitiest vacuum cleaner ever! I will never buy one again. All these experts have clearly never experienced the disappointment of having to go over the same piece of carpet again and again to pick up the same piece of fluff!! I am firmly in the Shark camp and I will not be told otherwise 22 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Internally, though, it would be straight out of the SG playbook for JL & NS to stand up and use examples of ongoing restrictions elsewhere as a reason to be cautious. On that note as well, I wonder when the daily briefings will stop. Looking back on last summer now it was slightly bizarre to require a daily briefing to announce 4 new cases. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually can’t believe that we have had to wait 21 years to get to a tournament, and not only was the joy of making it there robbed from us by Covid, but actually going to the tournament will be too. Absolutely gutted at the way this has panned out. Can’t believe I’m saying this but I’m verging on wishing we hadn’t qualified as this is fucking miserable. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can’t believe I’m saying this but I’m verging on wishing we hadn’t qualified as this is fucking miserable.I suppose on reflection I'm happy that we didn't fail as opposed to being happy we qualified. I was delighted for the players, Steve Clarke etc and it was an unbelievable lift in the aftermath, but I genuinely can't bear having to watch Scotland at a tournament from my living room. Especially with it being a fucking 25-minute drive away. Behind closed doors is the worst possible option for pretty much anyone without a financial stake in the tournament, but it's what's gonna happen. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elixir Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 2 hours ago, The Moonster said: She might be a virologist, but she's not an economist and she's certainly not a psychologist, as much as she seems to think a bit of sunshine will keep spirits up. Of course someone looking purely at how to stop a virus is going to say lockdown. I think everyone agrees the best way to supress a virus is to isolate but there comes a point when the economy needs restarted and we need to watch the population doesn't start topping themselves like Lemmings. Sridhar doesn't have a solution for the economy or peoples mental well being in the meantime. Both are becoming critical. Don't worry, she's not. 1 hour ago, Billy Jean King said: 11 hours ago, Todd_is_God said: You are right, but i've got zero confidence that, even in the scenario you describe, the SG will adopt such a laissez faire attitude.

Those comments have been rolled back on and flip flopped to late spring by their tourism minister. Not that I'll be going to Spain this year, but I just hope to f**k the EU also get a handle on this as soon as possible. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
