Dread Posted April 27, 2009 Report Share Posted April 27, 2009 Well played, sir. One post but a force to be reckoned with, I see. I must consult the Oracles on how to deal with this one in the future. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Venneh Posted April 28, 2009 Report Share Posted April 28, 2009 All the books I need to do my research for my ethnography have been checked out by professors. :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slothian Posted April 29, 2009 Report Share Posted April 29, 2009 Yesterday, after my evening meal, which I normally have around 5-6pm, I went upstairs and had a nap. At 11pm, I turned my radio off and stayed in bed until 6:40 this morning to be up for work. Now I'm pretty busy at the best of times, so whilst I can see that it's probably good for me that I've caught up on some rest, I sacrificed an evening I needed for both the gym and the oWa, not to mention editing down the next FYEO.

Nicolette Opal Posted April 29, 2009 Report Share Posted April 29, 2009 I too slept when I should've been working Also, I'm sick of this Swine Flu business, and it's only getting worse: They've announced the first suspected case of it in Chicago (and this is the city proper, not just a suburb).

Missy Posted April 29, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 29, 2009 Also, I'm sick of this Swine Flu business, and it's only getting worse: They've announced the first suspected case of it in Chicago (and this is the city proper, not just a suburb). And it's in my new area, so my mom is totally freaking out. *sigh* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Venneh Posted April 29, 2009 Report Share Posted April 29, 2009 Merg. It's not been fatal in the US so far, so so long as it doesn't start killing people in their teenage and 20s/30s here, we have nothing to worry about. There are several reasons it got so bad in Mexico, and they're kind of horrible for me to say, so I won't. Also, yeah, something's definitely wrong with either my power cord or the port it plugs into. Need to do a test with someone else's power cord.

Missy Posted April 29, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 29, 2009 Someone died from it today. A child, I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Venneh Posted April 29, 2009 Report Share Posted April 29, 2009 Flu normally kills kids and the elderly, they've got the weakest immune systems. You only have to start worrying if it kills people in their prime (late teens to early 30s) like it did in Mexico, because flu doesn't normally do that. Regardless, please to not be getting sick, peoples. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dread Posted April 29, 2009 Report Share Posted April 29, 2009 Exactly. More news fear-mongering bullshit. On the upside, we don't have to hear about Bird Flu anymore. Swine Flu soounds a lot cooler. Try to imagine Dr. Strangelove screaming it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicolette Opal Posted April 29, 2009 Report Share Posted April 29, 2009 But the 28 month-old it killed was a Texan, and like my husband said earlier, "That's like 16 in human years." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuaveStar Posted April 29, 2009 Report Share Posted April 29, 2009 Isn't anyone worried about me and the two people in Scotland who have Swine flu? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Venneh Posted April 29, 2009 Report Share Posted April 29, 2009 The only place it's going to kill is where people don't have decent hygiene or have godawful health care. You'll be fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James D. Posted April 29, 2009 Report Share Posted April 29, 2009 I'm sorry if you all think I'm an asshole for saying this, but it really isn't my responsibility to pay for someone else's health care. Sorry, but it's not. Period. I'll immediately pay for anything my future family needs because THEY ARE MY FAMILY. THEY are my responsibility. And conversely, why should someone else have to pay for my health care? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Molly Posted April 29, 2009 Report Share Posted April 29, 2009 I'm with you, actually. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
