Do they cancel the entire game for a less than 1% chance of lightening in the area?



they have for for one strike. Happened to my high school teams a few times.


One strike close enough: game's done.





All it takes is for one instance to cancel shite.

So...



I'm guessing y'all aren't the "silent majority" like y'all continue to claim since the Reagan years.

In fact, you are the "loud minority", which y'all claim to hate.

How does that relate to Covid 19?

Would it make you feel better if I removed the lightening statistic? even tho, it is true. You can not argue the other statistics


Despite what you may think, I think the virus response is shortsighted and over-the-top. I just dislike combating that using relatively useless facts. Nothing more, nothing less.

Right?


I have to wear a mask in the grocery store and at work. Nothing major has changed.


Took some time to get acclimated to wearing the mask, but it's not a hindrance in any way now.

It’s how science fricking works. Sometimes you make assumptions off of similar things.

Or is SARS 2.0 magical in some way?

Or I guess flu would be magical since it renders masks ineffective, but SARS 2.0 is stupidly trapped in the humans’ clever trap!

Unfortunately thinking like this explains how louisiana is in the shape it’s in. The average louisiana voter likely holds a below average iq and lacks the ability to think rationally. These observations explain perfectly how the state consistently elects incompetent leaders like both of the Edwards.

It actually hinders your respiratory system from functioning optimally.

The lightening statistic useless sure. The mortality statistics are relevant. You’re not on trial slack, get out of your feelings

I hope you see now why I dislike things like the lightning quip.

You will often get caught in this sideshow argument that distracts from the main point. Same with those who argue there have been ZERO transmissions from students to teachers worldwide - that argument is almost certainly going to blow up the moment schools open under a microscope in the US, and then what?

You people need to accept the fact that we’re all going to die at some point in the future. Sniff some glue and get over it
