Well, at least you were wanted.

I'm pretty sure they called my cell all week during work hours. Place had horrible reception so if the call came through at all, i couldnt answer cause well, im at work.

But nobody ever left a message so shrug

Definitely an "omg did you see Hobem wore the same shirt on picture day?!"

Especially in small towns, such as this, there's only so many places to shop. It ends up happening more than we like to admit.

Not sure what Jorch, Jort, and Humbys excuse is though.

I'm not sure this actually does what he wants it to do. Im assuming, he wants to hear only cultural music but...

I mean at 110 bpm they still get Wannabe by the Spice Girls and Dr Feelgood by Motley Crew, I'm a Slave 4 U by Britney, some Public Enemy and Daft Punk, and I'm Coming Out by Diana Ross.

At 80, they still get Gangstas Paradise by Coolio, some Matchbox 20, Radiohead, Judas Priest, and TLC...and Doin Time by Sublime, which is appropriate, I guess.

It's not like all pop music has one tempo...

In the video, in the link, he mentioned that birth control pills were used for all sorts of other things besides preventing pregnancy, like helping with acne amongst others. I wish I could quote you what he said, but I refuse to listen to it again, it's infuriating.

Anyways, point is, he knows and he believes all it's uses are wrong.

That's pretty cool! I knew we didn't really have a flu season, but I didn't realize we actually killed off a while strain. Not for nothing, I guess.

You do have a point though, we have an existing vaccine and we are more knowledgeable about the flu in general. Maybe there would be more surviviors than one would anticipate. As long as the scientists didn't dont get infected and die before they could get the vaccine out.

When birds catch the bird flu, there can be up to 100% mortality rate. So, I suppose I'm more refering to a catastrophic, civilization altering illness. More akin the what a zombie virus would do, without the added potential of reanimation.

But in the situation in imagining, they would all be dead. I'd be stuck there indefinitely!

But you do have a point. Im sure the public health officials in my area would tell everyone that there's nothing to worry about and to go get infected for fun. :/ guess I'd be the only one left, granted I stay inside long enough to outlive all the infected.

No, definitely people wouldnt quarantine like that. But, H5N1 can have a really high mortality rate. From what I can tell, a near 100%. for birds and some marine mammals. I.e. every animal that catches it, dies.

Not to be macabre, but I don't mean how long would people have to quarantine to beat back the virus. Im asking how long would an individual have to hide from everyone else, before everyone else, who refused to believe it was real, and whatnot, caught the virus and just...died.

Yeah...I took the bait, then remembered what day it was.

Firefox also has a libreddit extension that will automatically direct you there if you type in any reddit address.

Well, like the pole started out getting dragged backward, and then forward again...the white spot on the ground is where I think the pole originally started out, and there's damage in front and behind that mark.

I think it didn't break cause it's meant to keep cars from plowing underneath the truck. If it broke it would defeat the purpose, and the car would end up with the driver somewhere under the trailer, decapitated or something...

I'll take aliens and Bigfoot in cahoots too! I bet one of those shape shifting cryptids had a hand in it too.
