Mega Thread Things that s**t me the fourteenth part

[dales.girl38]

I ******* hate platitudes. I'm so bitter, as if I want my friends and family giving me a buzz to ask how sh*t life is at the mo' while they can sit in the sun and drink cocktails with their mates or go to the footy.

I'm convinced that my extended family's "hope you are staying safe xxxx" Facebook comments (while they're currently on a road trip holiday) are really thinly veiled "sucks to be you, told you Queensland is better" messages

Definitely! Rude bloody Queenslanders

Which would be?

Strict sanitisation and protective protocols to visit hospitals/aged care.
Better systems in place to quarantine the very sick.
Allow scoiety to keep functioning. Locking down the healthy with the sick is not a good idea

Strict sanitisation and protective protocols to visit hospitals/aged care.

Which has been in place

Better systems in place to quarantine the very sick.

This was always the issue - we as a nation have shut down most of our quarantine places - apart from sending people with C19 to Xmas Island - where do they go? We also asked people with suspected C19 to self quarantine - yet they chose not to and now there is this splurge in numbers

Allow scoiety to keep functioning. Locking down the healthy with the sick is not a good idea

This sounds like a Herd Immunity approach.

Common sense only works on people who are prepared to give a little. There was a lockdown , numbers dropped , places opened up and people ignored each and every one of your ''common sense'' rules. The numbers increased and lockdown 2 happened.

Its not that society should be allowed to function properly - its that some parts of society choose not to function properly in a crisis.

So like the US ?

How do you stop health care workers getting sick and passing it on to healthy people in your fantasy ?

Uuummm you mean the same health care workers that will still be needed to care for the sick and elderly in whatever stage lockdown? Through working in a sterile environment and wearing protective gear. Same as they do in hospitals every day.

Your assuming they only get it from patients not give it

how do you think it got into aged care ?

Worth it

Seriously though. Players are just too fit for the ground size. Need to either cap interchanges at 5 per match or take 2 players off the ground.

Not his coaching, just his whinge about holding the ball. Now it's paid 20 times a game.

I blame Dan

If Clarko complained about Dan's lockdown what would happen? Have I stumbled across cold fusion?

I hope you washed your hand.

But has his whinge opened up the game and made for more free flowing football

This doesn’t necessarily mean any less boring at times

Port Richmond yesterday was a great game.

 

[Scotland]

If the AFL had any spine they would've just said 'STFU we will apply the rules as we see fit'. Instead they made a knee jerk reaction and now players are penalised with ridiculous interpretations. Players were getting away with dropping the ball too much, but the crackdown on prior opportunity has been too much.

Port Richmond yesterday was a great game.

Missed it, but GC/St Kilda was a great game as was WC/Geel. I think it's settling down a bit and we are starting to see who the better teams are.

 

[Scotland]

I do think people reminiscing on great footy on the 80s, 90s, 00s, whenever have thick rose coloured glasses on.

I enjoyed watching WC in the early 90s and mid 00s but they played a heap of garbage games you'd never want to re-watch. The style of footy in the 90s was better (IMO), but not all games were Essendon vs North from 99 or 2001. People still rave about St Kilda v Geelong from 2009, but who raves about the 2009 season overall?

You could be much ruder about the umpire back in the day, which was fun.

My father (Edit) had this weird saying about the umps

“you wouldnt know how to play mothers and fathers”

I vividly remembering him getting smacked across the back of the And head by aN old girl who disagreed with what he had to say about a south Fremantle player

I cut my footy teeth at nice middle class Unley Oval but even there better than half the crowd would have been escorted out by security these days.

First entry in this thread, but heartily peeved after nearly getting knocked off my bike this afternoon by an untethered dog, wandering under no control away from its owners, who had obviously chosen to blissfully ignore the painted "dogs must be on a leash" signs that appear every 50 metres or so on this particular shared pathway in suburban Geelong. Unfortunately ringing my bell startles the dog that basically runs straight at me. Then after crash stopping and nearly cleaning up the dog I turn around and say "do you reckon you might be able to put your dog on a lead?" Answer (from 60+ year old female owner) "why don't you go and f..k off!"

Thanks very much. Good to see community spirit is alive and well......

Didnt he complain about papleys staging? Then papley staged again?

Watching the channel 7 program about Anita Cobby. I was 17 at the time and living in Sydney. I still remember it vividly. What a pack of subhuman lowlife mongrels the murderer were/are.

They're not even worth a bullet. Sickening.

Generally speaking people are more and more utterly selfish and careless about their dogs/kids/selves when it comes to other people now.

Unpopular thing that shits me.

Being forced to work from home. I don’t have the best home environment, and it help my mental health being couped up.
