yeah, no need to cut me to the quick 😭

Don’t get on the wrong side of me, now. You’ll end up DaisyPusher instead of DaisyCutter.

LOL: I had to check what thread we’re on. Talk about straying off topic. 😆

I’ll be looking out for you on DL tomorrow, OD. I’d better see you posting, or there’ll be trouble! You’re never too old to be put over someone’s knee, you know. 

Oh stop it I am getting all excited!

They're too busy knocking on residential front doors (like mine) to make sure we are home during 14 days iso. A necessary job, but not for army personnel in camo uniforms, particularly as many in my hood are migrants from war-torn countries. At least drop the silly camo clothes in a suburban street. But I digress...

Do you want them to walk around in thongs and shorts ? It is their current uniform and has been for a number of years just the same as it was jungle greens for a large period of time. They are accompanying a police officer so police numbers are not overstretched.

Actually no, you are wrong. They are accompanying a Dept Health employee. 

Of course I'm not suggesting they wear shirts and thongs. You are being your usual obtuse and condescending self to suggest so. 

Army personnel wearing full camo gear walking residential streets is not a great message in a suburb with many migrant families from war-torn countries. That might be hard to understand from where you are, but not here.

Keep going by yourself if you must, I'm out.

Could this be the AFL next season ?

The (NFL) league’s head office sent a memo to teams stating that if a game cannot be rescheduled during the league’s current 18-week schedule due to a Covid outbreak among unvaccinated players, the team with the outbreak will forfeit the game outright and will be credited with a loss.

Here’s the kicker: players on both teams will not be paid for the lost contest, and the team responsible for the cancelled game – the one with the outbreak – will cover the finances for the side without the outbreak. They will also be subject to further discipline from the commissioner’s office if it’s determined the outbreak was due to a team or player not correctly adhering to the league’s Covid protocol.

We're fighting a war against COVID.

NSW going to state wide lockdown 7 weeks too late with 1.5 hour notice posted on Twitter. 
If that’s not peak incompetence I dunno what is.

Absolute hubris from a state that wanted to prove they could do it "better" than Victoria.

As if she didn’t know at her 11am press conference this would happen. She just wanted to avoid getting smashed by the media for making this obviously far too late decision. 
Absolutely disgusting to publish this news on social media. How many elderly people use Twitter? FFS be a leader and stand up. 
Also 7 days? Who are you kidding!

PS why after a thousand time of typing "Dees" does it change it to Fees. 

 

That's obvious Mr Old.  Subliminally your predictor also hates that awful abbreviation.

Tip:  Use 'DEMONS' instead FTW! 😁

Well, it does make one realise why we got rid of the ‘gold standard’ back in ‘68…

In the spirit of WA becoming a break away country with their own COVID rules.....

What's up with the font on the scoreboard here at Optus?? Strange style only legible by non-vaccinated, eliminationists??

Nothing like a nice big bunch of cynicism during these already depressing times.

Did we? And are they?

Three more questions: How do you know? Has it been stated somewhere?

And most importantly, does it matter?

This is a really backward way of looking at the battle against COVID, the whole point to vaccinations is to get people out and about and mingling with different communities. Staying zero COVID after vaccinations have reached the 80% point means you might as well cut yourself off from the world for the next 3-5 years.
