When they work for $2 an hour and we work for $25 an hour, while at the same time manipulating their currency, it would be hard to obliterate their economy. China is expanding and the latest example is a huge expansion of trade with countries in South America.

It would be a huge challenge to obliterate their economy due to their worldwide expansion. On a recent trip to South America, my wife and I were shocked by the number of Chinese cars there.

I also saw several dealerships that sell MG vehicles. I thought "Wow", I haven't seen them here in the US for many years. In the end, they told me that your once sacred British MG brand, is now a Chinese product. China also now owns Volvo. GM's Buick line would also not exist were it not for the Chinese. GM got rid of Pontiac and Oldsmobile but for some unknown reason the Chinese like Buicks. I have no idea why.

Anyway, how do you stop them?

The Evil Masterminds Behind COVID-19: Charmin and Cottonelle

of all the things people decided they needed to stockpile for a potential quarantine.

all of the stores around my area ran completely out of toilet paper this last weekend.

people were piling it into their carts and vehicles as if they were going to be holed up for a year.

Rub a dub ... looks like the quality of mercy is lost upon you!

Hairtrigger ...

I beg to differ. I could have suggested a 40 grit sandpaper instead of the smoother 80 grit.

I do have a soft side.

For the hard - assed GB ....only sand paper would clean their hemorroid infected asses

Hairtrigger ...

I would recommend a radial disc sander starting with 80 grit sandpaper.

The cordless Ryobi model P411 would personally be my choice.

but then why use paper - just sit on the toilet and flush it every 10 minutes

Simon ...

LMAO ... When working from home, grab a laptop and make the toilet your chair.

If on a video conference or Skype, just remember to move the air fresheners out of view.

COVID-19 another example showing local publishers/congregations are on their own?

my area is a large city spread across two u.s. states and multiple different cities and counties.

the area of 2.5 million is covered by parts of 4-5 different circuits.

many of those attending meetings are at-risk individuals with health problems or age related risk.

JW's seem to be damned if they do and damned if they don't in to so many on this site

Pete ...

I agree. It seems to be like a political thing at times. If you didn't like Obama, no matter what he did was bad. Now, if you don't like the Orange Man, no matter what he does is bad.

I guess it just goes with the territory.

People would have to be shitting continually, but then why use paper - just sit on the toilet and flush it every 10 minutes.

Simon ...

Maybe it's like spiritual food. You take in too much of it and you just sit on the toilet and blow gas.

Covid-19 (Coronavirus) - Status Update Thread

by Simon in

jw
friends

this topic is to focus on status updates & advice (no opinion or politics please).. status.

latest status is that it's serious, probably isn't going to be contained and most large companies are making contingency plans, cancelling large events etc... which i don't think would happen if it was just people being alarmist.

the incubation period means it may have already spread further and infected many more people than are currently known, so expect jumps in the numbers over the coming days and weeks.. tracking.

They say 60% alcohol kills the virus. On that basis I know some folks whose body will be totally immune to the disease.

slimboyfat ...

I guess you could count me in there. Let them sneeze or cough on me, I generally feel protected.

637.5 shits per DAY! So a person that grabbed up 4 cases of TP from Costco when it was available

eyeuse ...

I guess that gives the term "you're full of shit" more credibility.
