just out of curiousity, Falcon-- how did you handle the Y2K flap?
I knew they would figure out a way around it. The only thing that would've happen was that you would see 1900 on the bill and not 2000
wasn't too concerned on it because I knew a solution could be found.
that is just it, there was nothing to fix! It just happened. Social security had a glitch if you were over 100 years old, because of the 00 ending, but besides that there was nothing to fix.
Electronics is one thing, but diesase is an entirely different ball game0 -

No just trying to be realistic based on past history.
At first yes I did let others get to me making me fear this. Yes I do admit to that, but I'm too the point where if I die I die and if I don't then I'll carry on.
The human race has gotten through sever pandemics before and just rebuild society making a come back.
I'm just trying to say being prepared is not a bad idea. Having an extra 200 dollars on hand for emergencies is not being unrealistic or is it?0 -
I've had the whine flu many times. I just lie on the sofa and whine for soup and juice all day.0

We are overdue for a pandemic and it's going to happen sooner or later. I'm just saying you should be prepared for the worst case scenario whether it be a pandemic or a tornado taring your house down or a hurricane mowing a town over. People who are not prepared to deal with these things are the ones who end up panicing thats real. Not fake made up not to scare anyone, just be prepared to hunker down when they say stay home.
How do people react in real life situations like this? When Hurricane Katrina went over New Orleans men used that as an excuse to rape women
They used it as an excuse to rob electronic stores instead of going after food and water.
They used it as an excuse to act inhumanely and panic.
Lets face it, there are alot of people who will panic and do stupid things.
Very much enjoyed this thread, especially watching the kool aid remark get twisted, etc...Finally must chime in, having lived in New Orleans through Katrina. " They" weren't raping women, etc etc etc.
You weren't there, yet you remember some pretty ridiculously inaccurate and scary media freak out stories. Case closed.0 -

no
it just seems you have a very dim and dark outlook on me and most things
I am not trying to hurt peoples feelings like you imply and I dont really appreciate your judgment of me
I cannot read minds and assume my audience here are all adults
being sensitive is one thing
being over sensitive is not healthy0 -
Me too! only mine was more of the wine flu...I'll leave it at that. Back to internet blogs!:laugh:I've had the whine flu many times. I just lie on the sofa and whine for soup and juice all day.0 -
the point, in my opinion is:
1) if you post something stating an opinion be prepared for others to state their opinions
2) if you are offended by ANYTHING posted, the proper way to handle it is by reporting the post to Mike and then ignoring it
3) nobody else MAKES anyone quit. If you decide to quit for any reason that'd your call, it can't be blamed on something you read on a message board.
That is all I have to say about that.
the end. :flowerforyou:
would you quit telling people to report things!!!
geeesh...
I am kidding but reporting everything that you disagree with is not fair to MIke
why should he be bored with all this childish crap
Agreed. Suck it up, people-- living life without being offended is NOT a civil right.
Go Marla!
Calls to mind a wonderful quote I just made up....
If I say something that offends you, please let me know. I may want to offend you again in the future.
IDK how I missed all the shenanigans, but WOW. Totally awesome.
We've covered racism, border control, cleanliness, mind control, kool-aid, civil rights, first amendment rights, and therefore the only things left to discuss are: religion, politics, and puppies.
Since religion and politics are out, I propose we discuss puppies.
I have a puppy in my backyard that looks just like Dave's av. And another one that was the star of a Disney movie.

Eat right! Make sure you get your daily dose of fruits and veggies.
Take your vitamins and bump up your vitamin c.
Get plenty of exercise because exercise helps build your immune system.
Get plenty of exercise because exercise helps build your immune system. Walk for at least hour a day, go for a swim, take the stairs instead of the elevator, etc.
Wash your hands often. If you can’t wash them, keep a bottle of antibacterial
stuff around. Wear a mask when out in public places and avoid going out in public as much as possible while the swine flu is spreading. Get lots of fresh air. Open windows whenever possible. Get plenty of rest. Try to eliminate as much stress from your life as you can.
OR …. You can take the doctor’s office approach. Think about it, when you go
for a shot, what do they do first? Clean your arm with alcohol.. Why? Because
alcohol kills germs. So…… I put on my mask, walk to the liquor store (exercise), I put lime in my Corona (fruit), celery in my Bloody Mary (veggies), drink on the bar patio (fresh air), get drunk, tell jokes, and laugh (eliminate stress) and then pass out (rest). The way I see it, if you keep your alcohol levels up flu germs can’t get you!!!!0 -

That's true but I'm talking about things that you find TRULY offensive, like this user clearly did. Mike runs this website, I don't think he minds receiving report posts.
I can honestly say......*hangs head down in shame* ......I have been reported maybe once, maybe more, I seem to be offensive, who knew? :happy:0 -
I agree czewwhat.
When posting something you are going to get many different responses.
Brace yourself b/c you may not like what everyone has to say.
Solution to that problem:
Don't post!
