Thread: Corona Virus

I have just read why there is a run on toilet paper.
Apparently if one person sneezes, a hundred others crap themselves, hence the need for so much toilet paper!

Not 100% sure you get Spike, if your basis is fear. Spike feared nothing, and he hoped his progeny would do the same. He also hoped he wouldn't have progeny. Quoting Milligan, if you don't know him, is fraught. [/QUOTE]

For heavens sake, what is it that scares you? Why is your 'sprog' so vulnerable? Most of our 'sprogs' are fine... If yours have special needs, this is your place! We welcome anyone.

Party in Antartica.....summer I hope.
The only place on Earth that apparently hasn't got "The Virus," but heaps of Dunny Paper.

Nah, no dunny paper in Antartica, don't need it. All outdoor toilets, you just: "snap one off"

Bloody hell the news seems to be getting worse.
Not promoting JRE at all rather the doctor he is interviewing.

I doubt anyone will agree to this now, because we are all entrenched in our beliefs, so let's join up in 6 months and see who was right?

Anyone?? I guess the ones still alive will agree. Will they choose to share bog roll and soup? That could tell.

6 months moratorium?...Naahh, I don't think so!!
We all have our opinions, so IMHO the discussion will continue, but as far as that "discussion" is concerned, I reckon that as long as we are respectful of other people's opinions, all will be good on the forum.
