All I remember is posting on page two or three that no one is mentioning the fact that there is one of the few BSL-4 biolabs in the world in Wuhan.


It’s worth mentioning that that isn’t related to the outbreak. Their coronavirus lab work was done at lower levels.

According to WHO, almost 7MM have died due to "COVID".


.008% of the planet. I feel sad for them, but the majority of that 7 million were fat, already sick, or very elderly.

And we handicapped society and destroyed the mental and social health of a few billion because of it.

Future historians will have their hands full with this one.

I only remember those posts as in “thank god the season finished before COVID came out” when folks were starting to lose their minds over toilet paper.

Not worried it would get worse before the title game. Person to person transfer wasn’t officially confirmed till after anyway.

The original thread was called "people are falling out in the streets of Wuhan" or something like that


Yep, that was it, or close at least. I titled it, “People are dropping dead in the streets of Wuhan.” Admins later renamed it. And I started it in January before Covid.

The original post included lots of gifs that were coming out of Wuhan. Very early stuff that showed people collapsing all over town. The gifs later broke because information was being taken down and links were going bad, so I updated the initial post with various information/updates as things were happening. In hindsight, I wish I had left it original.

Honkus was stuck in Chyna and couldn't get out. I think that was before the Natl Championship game.

(There were def threads about it all popping off in china in December’19)
almost feel like there were some early KStout threads

I remember talking about it to someone at Christmas dinner 2019. Remember where I was even sitting at the dinner table and the person I was talking with I haven't had dinner with since. And I get 99% of my news from the OT like every other high IQ red-blooded American

So tell ol'Baw he owes you some shawarma and Lebanese tea for lunch per SS

This is the first thing I could find. I recall reading about this on New Years Eve but maybe it was the Iranian general that got blown away.

There were definite rumblings on here in early December of 2019. I was WAY ahead of the curve compared to most people. Thanks again OT!
