Could this pandemic be a turning point, a giant wake-up call to a chunk of faux viewers?

Or are you speculating on some societal benefit of killing off a lot of elderly men?

Forgive me for being obtuse, and the uncharacteristic case of DDD(Dermal Depth Deficiency) (DU's old fat white male rhetoric sometimes brings it on) or perhaps it is just sudden basketball deprivation withdrawal. At any rate, I am still puzzled...but content to remain so.

in their own family. I was sadly saying that i hope that if those family members (uncle charlies) die perhaps at least a waking up will result. Certainly not cheering for the death of anyone. Although I would not be unhappy in the least if a handful of republican leadership met with that fate.

And then did you see Cardi B's reaction? Whew. Sometimes I wonder how these people even get dressed in the morning.

Care to guess what they're invested in?

My cure for those gullible FOX viewers would be equal parts ketchup and sugar-free vanilla pudding. Mix well and eat it slowly because it took a while to catch the virus. If eaten fast, it won't work and you have to begin again. Four cups over six hours with a teaspoon should do the trick.

In between spoonfuls, drink a quart of warm lemonade. The acid is a real boost for the mixture.

It may not cure the virus, but your breath will make everyone think you're dead.

My test will prove the opposite.

Hello, FOX viewers who check in here. This crud's for you. Happy eating!

14. "Spring salad"?!?

Is that anything like the word-salad that they obsequiously regurgitate (daily)? I have to ask because I cut cable years ago (after blocking their propaganda channels for many years prior), and continue to block their news feeds online.

My recent visits to grocery stores reveal a LOT of panic buying (I am curious as to how COVID-19 threatens our drinking-water supply, because I see so many people buying cases of bottled water). Oddly, I don’t see many shoppers stocking up on “spring salad” ingredients.
That may be just as well...

Could probably get Soros & others to pitch in on the financials and put Rupert out to pasture.
