I hope that they are able to procreate. I have a younger sister who has really beat up her body. Started smoking at 15, has been overweight since a young age, and then at age 21 became addicted to meth. Yet, she gets the vaccine and six months later has pneumonia. It has to the vaccine. It is the one and only possible reason. It can't possibly be her 28 years of smoking, 5 years of meth addiction, and/or her very unhealthy diet. Keep in mind that she has had pneumonia and other respiratory issues off and on since her 20's and is not 44.

There is no unifying thread amongst the mass shootings. Stephen Paddock.. hetero white male with zero political inclinations nor any religious tendencies. Wokeism... not even closely related to his carnage.

Hmmm.. does not seem like much of a revelation. it is like saying... Breaking news, Toronto got snow in December.

This is not my first rodeo dealing with his type. On other forums, we had folks that would go on and on and on about the Vince Foster case. Day after day, they would write page long diatribes and no one would respond... yet they just kept going.

I have yet to mention Fauci in any way.. let alone if I believe him. Yet you bring him up almost every time.. That is you filling in the blanks and assuming.. game, set, match. it is fascinating from a psychological viewpoint how I lay out the scenario as it was.. 4 choices and none of which was that extreme. Your reply was always one filled with more far more dire, extreme choices. It really says a lot about you.

There is no absolute metric or indicator that says if someone is a white supremacist.. its all subjective opinion. The one guy that I met who I would say is a white supremacist had a swastika tattoo covering his entire back and had numerous badges on his jacket claiming that whites were superior and non-whites were inhuman garbage. That IMO is fa more indicative of his beliefs than what you point out.

Again, I am a lifelong atheist. When I visit the in-laws, they do prayer and grace. Do I raise a fit? Not in the least. Does it change my beliefs? Not an iota. My lack of beliefs is unwavering and I care not in the least what anyone thinks of it. If I was at this funeral.. I would have not have thought twice about it either way.

Or possibly you could cease being so sensitive to this.. it goes both ways. If your belief is so strong and unwavering.. why do you need someone to say the right things at a funeral?

Being a virtually life-long atheist.. it would bother me not in the least if they included the word, Jesus, or not. Bigger battles to fight in life than words spoken at a funeral

When you finally come around to the reality that ALL humans are flawed regardless of time, place, or religion.. then you stop feeling the need to revise history. Yes, folks did terrible things in the past and probably will continue to do terrible things in the future.

It is debatable. Why? Your ^^^ is an opinion not an objective fact. An objective fact would be something like it is 45 degrees F at this place and at this time.

I saw nothing of that sort. We stayed in south Manhattan (about 10 blocks south of Times Square) and really only explored Manhattan and a sliver of brooklyn. Maybe if we had ventured out further... we would have seen a fight or been in danger. The most noticeable thing was how the pedestrians walk into the street at will. Never even look up from their phones. The traffic lights and pedestrian signs were just decorations.

More exaggeration and hyperbole. What would you do if you could not fill in the blanks with assumptions? Not sure I want to know the answer.

Quite the master of hyperbole you are.

This is not like in the health care field where they were given no other options... get the shot or we will walk you out. No, It was really a matter of convenience. Being that most people accrue more sick leave than they use.. most had the built up sick leave to cover the testing and therefore no lost income. I would have opted for testing if the testing was done on monday. However, friday at that time was always the day where I could not leave the desk. 10 am and 3 pm... there was someone in the upper brass waiting on my data product.

I was recently in NYC (August 2022) and was told by those on another forum that I should fear for my life. I took some precautions but found it be quite tame. Was it culture shock.. oh yes. Still, my nephew were out and about on the streets/subways for 4 days and nothing even close to an incident.

being a state worker.. state law dictates a lot of my stuff. This being one of them. There were some who challenged it. However, they rescinded it in May 2022 and the challenges faded into nothing. Forced ... means only one option. No control. I had control.. lots of it.

Forced is where there there is only one option... Sorry. you lose. Well, you can continue to be apoplectic about this. Nothing is stopping you from being pissed off about this perpetually. On the other hand.. most rational folks move on eventually. I know that you will not. Sad existence but you were forced to be this way.

Except that losing your job was not the ONLY option. If you miss a week, you simply have to have some sort of leave approved for that time... not that difficult. Except for someone like you who exaggerates.

Ok, and for me to drive downtown is 10 minutes. It is Carson City, NV.. population 50,000. The line (from what coworkers report) was 45 minutes to an hour. Could I have quit and went somewhere else in the state government? Yes. As for the appeal, all I know it is that they were taking 6 to 9 months due to lack of manpower.. not a conspiracy. When the dept is facing a deluge of 500,000 unemployment insurance claims.. appeals like this get put on the backburner. However, you are quite the drama queen. "Imaginary Choices"... wow, quite the imagination.

Drag queen story hours.... if you do not like it then do not go. My kids have been to one and they were falling asleep in the middle of it (and it only lasted 15 minutes). Oh... but it left such an imprint on them.

"impossible choices"... wow, you are quite the drama queen. So when I go to restaurant and order an carnitas enchilada and they tell that they are out of carnitas but they have beef or chicken... that's an impossible. choice. Its a good thing that you do not work in my office. Your constant use of unproven assumptions is both sad and comical .

Your response has nothing to do with my post. You did not address that microeconomics is about the individual. I posted a definition ... not an opinion.

It is sad that you crave affirmation so badly and do not possess the ability to stay on topic.

How do I know that I pay lip service to anyone or anything? I know your types so feel free to be predictable
