I'll admit all of my thoughts are from GMA fake news. But I thought this is a virus that will NOT be another covid. Are you willing to give us a few cents of your opinion?In this event, it's actually higher. And thank you!

Should I buy a lifetime supply of toilet paper? I want to get out ahead of this next pandemic.In this event, it's actually higher. And thank you!
Haha no.Should I buy a lifetime supply of toilet paper? I want to get out ahead of this next pandemic.
Is the spread human to human limited to bodily fluids, or can infection be airborne? I can google but i am curious what an actual scientist on the job thinks...Haha no.
It's just a flu...Godspeed. The news said it has a 30% fatality rate.![]()
Buying it is better than stealing it.Should I buy a lifetime supply of toilet paper? I want to get out ahead of this next pandemic.
just out of curiosity, after all the erroneous information we got on the spread of covid, would you believe the government?Is the spread human to human limited to bodily fluids, or can infection be airborne? I can google but i am curious what an actual scientist on the job thinks...
Be more specific. Fauci or Robert Kennedy?just out of curiosity, after all the erroneous information we got on the spread of covid, would you believe the government?
either...during fauci seemed as if we were all over the place...get the vaccine and that stops the virus, stay 6 feet away from anyone and virus can't reach you, masks will stop viurus.....Be more specific. Fauci or Robert Kennedy?
Chat GPT did it in like 20 seconds - I did have a pretty good prompt, though. I asked it to analyze the thread as if it were an anthropologist who stumbled upon two new tribes that were feuding and break down the main protagonists and antagonists.Lot of time and thought went into that analysis
Commend you for that
Too lazy to really get down into it
So good job on the rhetoric
If it is, your mom is cooked. Sorry.Is the spread human to human limited to bodily fluids
People seem to forget this was a novel coronavirus in 2019. New. People did the best they could based on information they had. New information informed different thinking and policies. Lots of people do not like what Fauci did or thought he moved to slowly, but what if he didn't do those things and the disease turned out to be worse than it was? Errors of omission vs commission and such. As for Kennedy, I don't trust a damn thing out of his mouth ginned up by his kooky brain.either...during fauci seemed as if we were all over the place...get the vaccine and that stops the virus, stay 6 feet away from anyone and virus can't reach you, masks will stop viurus.....
Kennedy...I'm not sure he would know....doesn't mean he wouldn't tell us something, but personally I wouldn't accept anything as 100% fact. I've become somewhat of a cynic
No one ever said either of those - at least no one with a medical degree and in an actual official position....get the vaccine and that stops the virus, masks will stop viurus.....
If you ran it again am i now an antagonist?Chat GPT did it in like 20 seconds - I did have a pretty good prompt, though. I asked it to analyze the thread as if it were an anthropologist who stumbled upon two new tribes that were feuding and break down the main protagonists and antagonists.
Hantavirus is actually an airborne virus. The American version (Sin Nombre) is from inhalation of rodent droppings (e.g. Gene Hackman's wife). The Andean version (the one on this cruise ship outbreak) is spread through close contact, mainly saliva and coughing. Hantavirus affects both circulating macrophages (immune cells) and endothelial cells (cells that line things like capillaries, arteries, veins) so the lung is a good target organ, as are other modalities but my guess would be the lungs and/or maxillary sinuses.Is the spread human to human limited to bodily fluids, or can infection be airborne?

I think that means you are a prime candidate for MPOTY.AI always tends to ignore my existence except for the time it made me a clam based philosopher.
I guess it is probably a good thing AI doesn't think I am an asshat.

Is the american version deadlier? We are cleaning out our garage this weekend and we had some mice in there. My wife is freaked out and I'm trying to decide if I should be freaked out too. We are going to be wearing masks.Hantavirus is actually an airborne virus. The American version (Sin Nombre) is from inhalation of rodent droppings (e.g. Gene Hackman's wife).

F_ck yeah!! F_ck you @BrianNole777 !! I am coming for you bìtch!I think that means you are a prime candidate for MPOTY.
No. The Andean version (aka cruise ship) is much worse.Is the american version deadlier? We are cleaning out our garage this weekend and we had some mice in there. My wife is freaked out and I'm trying to decide if I should be freaked out too. We are going to be wearing masks.
If you are doing any of that work, never handle mouse feces with bare hands and if you are dusting, brooming, whatever, please wear a good quality mask.Is the american version deadlier?

Dr. Jill told Joe to say that covid was a pandemic of the unvaccinated, and he remembered it long enough to say it.No one ever said either of those - at least no one with a medical degree and in an actual official position.

We hope to have a specific test for the Andean version in the next few months, made in Iowa.
It won't be (most likely). Covid (specifically Sars-Cov-2) is much easier to spread. The current Andean Hantavirus has been around for quite a number of years and each outbreak hasn't gone north of 40 people. It requires close and consistent contact (like a bus or cruise ship) for an extended period of time. And then when it infects, people die also limiting spread. That's why Ebola will never become a pandemic. It also mutates far less than Sars-Cov-2 (for now). The flip side is that the Andean (cruise ship) version spreads person to person without needing a rodent.I'll admit all of my thoughts are from GMA fake news. But I thought this is a virus that will NOT be another covid. Are you willing to give us a few cents of your opinion?
Make sure you put some of that autism-causing special sauce in it!Next will be the vaccine.
I don't believe they played in 2016glory days, glory days
personally I liked the pSU Iowa game 2016
Tylenol?Make sure you put some of that autism-causing special sauce in it!![]()
There is some irony that this discourse arose in a thread about "embarrassing" and "really pathetic" hawkeye behavior. Such is HORT.It won't be (most likely).

In the early to mid 2000's there was a virus which caused SARS, which was a coronavirus and it killed quite a few in Asia and Canada but burnt itself out. Then, we all know, what happened to a related virus in 2020. Lots of carnage. Those are also related but all you need is one or two mutations and then you are fk'd. We are trying to intercept this before it even gets to that stage. The WHO is trying to not panic people but if this became a pandemic, you would wish Covid was back. The mortality rate of this virus is 30 to 60 fold higher.
It's brilliant but how does it read the entire thread? Do you link it or copy/paste it all?Chat GPT did it in like 20 seconds - I did have a pretty good prompt, though. I asked it to analyze the thread as if it were an anthropologist who stumbled upon two new tribes that were feuding and break down the main protagonists and antagonists.
Yeah, I did. I had a slow day yesterday lol.It's brilliant but how does it read the entire thread? Do you link it or copy/paste it all?
copy/paste?Yeah, I did. I had a slow day yesterday lol.
That would have been easier....copy/paste?
Found my new life motto:The Real Main Character: Moogy
Honestly, by the end, the thread slowly mutates into:
Moogy becomes the gravitational center because:
This makes him simultaneously:
- he insists on moral seriousness,
- cannot fully recognize when irony has overtaken the room,
- and repeatedly attempts nuanced discourse in a feral environment.
He wants standards in a digital swamp fight.
- more intelligent than many posters,
- and catastrophically mismatched to the ecosystem.
That creates endless comedic tension.
Which Cohort Had More Rhetorical Firepower?
Clemson Core
The Clemson regulars had:
But many of them rely on:
- territorial advantage,
- existing social alliances,
- deeper lore,
- better understanding of local hierarchy.
Their style is:
- repetition,
- insult cycling,
- political shorthand,
- identity signaling.
High comfort level.
Medium creativity.
Iowa/HROT Migrants
The Iowa cohort brought:
They fight more like:
- chaos energy,
- irony fluency,
- meme acceleration,
- willingness to derail,
- faster improvisation,
- higher tolerance for absurdity.
The Clemson board feels older, more territorial, more static.
The Iowa/HROT posters feel culturally shaped by years of surviving hyperactive off-topic board warfare.
Verdict
The Iowa contingent had more rhetorical firepower overall.
Not because they were more correct.
Because they were:
That matters enormously online.
- less emotionally attached to the space,
- more irony-poisoned,
- more adaptive,
- and more willing to turn everything into a bit.
The Clemson regulars often argued like:
The Iowa migrants argued like:
That style tends to dominate internet ecosystems unless heavily moderated.
Most Interesting Dynamic
The most fascinating thing:
By the end, several Clemson regulars begin partially assimilating into HROT-style posting.
You can literally watch cultural contagion happen in real time:
This is basically digital anthropology of migration and acculturation.
- shitposting cadence changes,
- absurdist humor increases,
- topic derailments become normalized,
- hostility becomes more performative than sincere.
A sports board population transfer created:
It’s absurd.
- border panic,
- cultural conflict,
- hybridization,
- and eventual meme integration.
But also kind of beautiful.
Haha. You two were best buds for the past week. Aside from him being a pedo state fan, you’d still be best buds.You post like Gibbs![]()
well crap. We have mice in our detached garage/shed and I’ve cleaned up a few things that had mice crap in them without any protection. I’ll probably have the dead soon. It’s been nice knowing you, McLegion can rejoice.If you are doing any of that work, never handle mouse feces with bare hands and if you are dusting, brooming, whatever, please wear a good quality mask.
