Yeah Roche is claiming "100% accuracy" Here's the thing: I can't think of a single other disease that doesn't impart some form of immunity. Not forever-immunity, to be sure, and immunity to coronavirus seems to be mediocre as a rule of thumb; the pork industry has been dealing with coronavirus for a long time and vaccination isn't nearly as satisfactory as everyone would like. And yeah - measles can cause "immune amnesia" but even then, you're fuckin' immune to fuckin' measles and the R0 on measles is 12 to 18 because measles don't fuck around. And measles was a way of life up until 1963. Kids had to worry about measles and the Cuban Missile Crisis. Someone on Twitter pointed out that it was kinda weird how there have been no human coronavirus diseases at all until 2002 but since then we've had SARS, MERS and COVID-19. I generally don't consider myself particularly vulnerable to conspiracy theories, but that's uncanny. I would love to hear an explanation that doesn't involve punking around with CRISPR.
Here ya go. Long story short: We don't deserve this planet. This poor, unfortunate planet was doing great until it developed a disease called "humans".
Whenever I meet someone, the first thing I ask them is "Would you rather have rabies, scabies, or babies?" (no I don't). I'm a "scabies" guy, myself.
Hadn’t developed the -abies question yet, at the time, but she was 19, working at a bar, on the clock, and I scored them digits. Fuck pickup artistry, just be yourself, kids. Edit: lol, I had to look up Leisure Suit Larry, I thought it was pickup artist software coaching
I am still running flying toasters as my screensaver across two platforms.
Online phone support for Leisure Suit Larry?!? Holy shit, I wanna hear those stories someday.
She's very demure about it. I've had that conversation several times - she says it was mostly flowchart shit, albeit more ridiculous than normal. "So. Did you get into the club? And did you buy the margarita? Did you get her back into the car? Which answer did you choose when she said she needed some air?" etc. Keep in mind this is a woman who has made a career out of watching the vaginas of screaming women so it didn't really make much of an impression on her.
