[QUOTE=7Seconds;1639591023]Honestly I was not aware, but if someone is eating Granny Smith apples I am not really sure what I can do to convince them otherwise.[/QUOTE]
100% honesty here, I'm putting biscoff on a sliced Granny Smith apple right now as a snack.
Sliced Granny Smith apples are also great on a panini with turkey, cheddar and red onion. I learned that on Church Street in Burlington VT.
Don't like them alone though.
[QUOTE=ChazWood;1639591083]That boney ass Pelosi broad got a lot of dough for a civil servant. I mean the numbers dont add up. You guys should look into that.[/QUOTE]
Chaz, wat up! I was passing by a tv at the lube job place and The Talk was on, they fired Sharon Osborne and hired a couple positive vibe homo men..........
It’s a sad show.

Yeah it is odd, the absurd wealth that our politicians accumulate in relation to their pay. Just lucky I guess. The current governor of illinois is the richest governor in the country. Ironically he literally paid a company to remove all the toilets in one of his mansions to have it deemed uninhabitable which saved him several million in taxes. I’m sure it was just a misunderstanding with the scope of work though and an oversite by the assessor and his accountants. Things happen...

That sounds really good. I like apples, onions and walnuts in salads with chkn or turkey.
[QUOTE=Plateauplower;1639591583]What do apples have to do with perversion though? My dog has it and I never see him on the Internet. He’s constantly licking himself, really makes a production out of it.[/QUOTE]
All the big words you folks use tend to confuse me but I believe he was referring to perseverance. Either way people who eat green apples are wrong and your dog should keep on doing what he is doing.

I can agree with this. Not a fan for eating out of hand, but they're ok for other things.

Yeah, he’s definitely got perseverance with the crotch licking and seems to enjoy it, so unlikely to change. One time someone told me they wished they could do it, which I found odd. I told them that he probably wouldn’t mind, but it would be a good idea to pet him a little bit first.
“Perseveration according to psychology, psychiatry, and speech-language pathology, is the repetition of a particular response (such as a word, phrase, or gesture) regardless of the absence or cessation of a stimulus. It is usually caused by a brain injury or other organic disorder.” - the inter webs.
Granny Smith apples are the absolute worst and should only be used in pies, appropriately portioned with other varieties. I have now lost all respect for JustTheDad.
[QUOTE=Paul Kreul;1639590203]No, they should not be included, & they should have not the placebo group actually take the very fukin thing they were trying to establish control for. Now having said that, why does Faucci state that 90% of the population must be vaccinated? I posted several links for this.
Again, normal approval process is 3-5 years of animal trials, followed by 3-5 years of human trials. Every previous mRNa "vaccine" candidate was withdrawn before or during animal trials due to lack of efficacy combined with serious safety concerns.[/QUOTE]
I have no knowledge if Faucci did say that, the context he did if so, or why.... nor do I care to gain any knowledge on that and I fail to see how it's relevant to clinical trial design.
I am just so lost as to how you have these thoughts when I have seen some really smart people here break this down to you. Are you under the impression that this 3-5 year figure you are seeing somewhere is actual trial length? When you look at the clinical trials for these vaccines we vaccinate or placebo a patient and send them into the world to collect data on Covid cases. Why exactly is more time needed when statistically significant data points were achieved?
[QUOTE=Cass40;1639584673]Huh? So in your state you're not included if you got vaxxed before a certain date? Makes no sense.[/QUOTE]
Right, and that is what I am saying. Reward us who didn't procrastinate, we are the real heros.
[QUOTE=Plateauplower;1639592213]That sounds really good. I like apples, onions and walnuts in salads with chkn or turkey.[/QUOTE]
Not sure how I forgot salads. Granny Smiths work great there. Tart and they don't turn brown and mushy.
sorry mgftp. although I agree they're good in pies. (Need some extra brown sugar compared to other apples though and more cooking.). Editing, missed that you said with other varieties, so might not need extra sugar

Yes but the word you used above was perversion. Perhaps that was an autocorrect? I assumed it was a joke I didn’t get. That happens a lot.

Haha! Wat up, Tater Dude! I see you been mostly conducting yurself like a civilized upstanding human dude and it almost brings tears to my old eyes, lol. You got so much to offer when you're not raving like a freakin' whackadoodle! I just saying it's cool to see, brother; for what that's worth. :D
but you're still a dip$hit; I mean, look at the text you posted that I bolded. Do you not yet understand that referencing "the Talk" means you actually watched it... even while "just passing by a tv on the way to the lube shop..." haha! Too easy! :p

Makes my blood boil when I think about it, but then I remember that's only hurting me. I believe big change is coming, one way or another.
and I for one will graciously welcome our new robot dog overlords. I'm staying positive by assuming even killer robot dogs enjoy belly rubs so there will still be use for some of us, otherwise obsolete humans. :)
I just pray to whoever is listening up there that we dont get hybrid politician/robot overlords cuz the thought of McConnel's head on a Terminator type body gives me the sweats. I'm hoping whatever they are, at least they have cute, friendly faces. :)

They gave the vaccine to the placebo group though..that’s the point.
Hero’s? Dude..You have elected yourself to be there test subject for this drug trial. No doubt sharing images of yourself on social media wearing a mask, holding up your post injection jab card, postering as a benevolent revolutionary savior of man kind.... by your own self poisoning.

OMG turtles head on a cyborg body is frightening. $hit man, that’s probably why they’ve been throwing all that money into exoskeleton systems for military applications. They are getting ready. Change is coming. Pelosi will probably keep those old leathery fake tits and have machine guns pop out of them like on a bond movie.

Because the more people that go along with this larp, the more control the Government will have over everyone...& they never give that control back. I’m sorry but this is a complete larp. There is no such thing as an asymptomatic Pandemic, the masks & lockdowns were proven to be a joke, & this vaccine is just a precursor of what they have in store for us. Passports & proof of vaccination is just now starting to trend, & it will only get worse. Even if you disagree with everything I’ve stated, this should concern you.

You can type til the cows come home but it literally won't change single person's opinion...just the opposite.
[QUOTE=mdonnelly80;1639492733]I've been vaccinated and here's what drove my decision to do so:
1. From a purely anecdotal standpoint (i.e. I'm not going to argue over the global severity of Covid), I saw family and friends become extremely ill. And, natural antibodies didn't last long; my brother caught it twice in six months (two positive tests) and was hospitalized once. He is a healthy 35 year old and I wasn't going to roll those dice.
2. I did my research on the vaccine and found out that it wasn't something that was slapped together in the space of months. It is based off of an existing vaccine for the SARS virus (Covid is a variant of SARs) and that SARs vaccine reportedly took over a decade to develop. The biochemistry behind the development of this Covid vaccine simply piggy-backed off of the SARs vaccine.[/QUOTE]I can respect and agree with all of this. I hope everything works out well for you as time goes by, given that you have had the shots. (I'm sorry, I just can't call it a 'vaccine' as that term has been used medically in the past. One thing about medical terminology: it is precise. It has to be.)
I'm also sorry to folks who have lost friends and loved ones to COVID. I put my anecdotal/personal losses in my post in an effort to avoid responses that missed my points and, instead, gave emotional loss responses. I'm 56 now. I'm losing people I have known and loved all my life with increasing frequency now. It's sad, but it is besides the points I tried to make.
I'm not even 'against' the initial lockdowns. We didn't fully know what we were facing; in certain ways, we still don't. Given the science we did obtain about this Chinese lab created virus, I was supportive of tiered ending to lockdowns 6 months into them. BUT, and yes, I'll be political now, politicians and the media, knowing that you don't ever waste a crisis, turned lockdowns into a political power game and means to hold viewers. We had a President begging governors to open their states. He was called cold, evil, uncaring, and stupid for his efforts. Of course his media and political enemies took the others side and ramped up the fear over information campaign.
Additionally, I have been called racist and stupid for saying this was a Chinese lab created virus. I too spoke with Infectious Disease experts over the course of the past year and a half. These guys knew this was not a natural phenomena a few months into the lockdowns. It just doesn't behave like a natural virus, and all of us should know that powerful governments have major programs designed to develop changes in known viruses with the possible goal of someday using them, if need be. So, I'll stand by my positions. I'm confident about them, but I do enjoy reading posts hear from a few of you who clearly know more on the subject than I do. Even when we disagree.

I have not seen one single person here saying they are not questioning things or that they're blindly following the government or whatever else they are accusing the "sheep" doing. Everyone is doing their own research and forming their own conclusions.
