C'mon folks. Act like adults. Everyone is entitled to play at this game called the Forum. Stop playing the excluding game as that is the true bully

SICK And tired of it. Do we have to play the 'get even" and wait for a mod to come chastise us like we are children that do not know how to play nice

Cheers, but sorry, this isnt the same person as the other day, so its not "again"...this is a someone else, unrelated, who likes to hand out red X's and be passive aggressive. I tried PM'ing them when they did it the first time and got no response to a polite message asking "why?" (cant post the PM here because its against the rules). Ignoring a polite PM, and then continuing to hand out red X's (as they did just a while ago) with no explanation is passive aggressive behaviour...and im just tired of the passive aggressives on here, shining a light on those who deserve it, maybe they will be better people...one can only hope

If i dont agree with something someone says, ill say it, and provide a reason for doing so. To do anything else, and just hit a red X is cowardly. This person singled me out to follow and red X...thats a behaviour im going to highlight
It is the ultimate act of being grown up, to confront an aggrievance head on and make peace. Anything else is childish, petty and so out of synch with what we should all be doing at this time. I applaud you for acting like an adult and if they chose not to, shame on them. Their pettiness will eat them up and they have, once again, shown their true colors

He and Rob are good friends. I suspect folks of trying to get your goat. BLOW IT OFF

Cheers, I'd already made that connection, and reported both of them

But i believe in shining a light on bullies/rudenees/crazy

Being friends with Daniel has nothing to do with this. Whatever issues they have is between them. This person (sm) is a very negative influence, and is posting things that have no place here. I have not addressed him personally, publicly, or privately since what happened, but I will disagree with him when he posts negatively. As I said before, I have no tolerance for violence or hate, (political, personal, racial), or otherwise.

Ought to be easy to find the perp, just look for someone who really likes their curry

This was very racial, and would be considered hate by any definition.(joke or not) It has no place in the real world, let alone in this forum. I disagreed with it. If he doesn't like people disagreeing with him, he can stop being hateful, and posting uncalled for negative innuendos.

In the states, I’ve only heard of a couple serious hoards. The guy with all the hand sanitizer who tried to gouge on Amazon, and a woman with a truck full of TO selling rolls for $5 each in a parking lot... stuff like that.

But people are getting mean and judgmental. Every person who scores a 12 pack is NOT a hoarder. But that’s how they’re being treated.

I got that gallon of hand sanitizer and have offered 60 ml bottles to the few humans I’ve seen. Usually they thank me and take one or say they don’t need it. One person asked where I got it, so I said, the only place I could find sold it by the gallon. So I got some, figuring I could share... she got so angry... oh so you buy a gallon so I can’t find any!

No, I bought something you could have also bought. They had stock, I didn’t hoard every jug they had.

How quickly civilization devolves...
I thought of you, the other day when I had to go to the Post Office (sold something on the classys) I was walking out and a lady was walking in. I had on gloves and a mask. I am adhering to the social distancing rule and was keeping space but this lady growled "stay right there and do not come any f____g closer to me" I was so shocked I just stood there. Most be something in the air at the Post Office.

this was NOT racial and would be the same as if he said something about garlic. STOP with the darn grudge and let the rest of us have our peace.

you have NO right to determine who is in here. this is turning this once great thread into a battle ground. Something YOU have always been against (so you say publicly)

I never said he shouldn't be here. I said what he is posting has no place here. Share some of that righteous angst with the other person in question here.

Edit: Racial hate is racial hate, no matter disguised as a joke or not.

A short follow up to my un-looked for bounty from Canada:
I've been vaping BBs and BB clones for a couple of years now and never used a condensation plug - mainly because I never came across one and didn't really care. Well now I've got one and found an unexpected benefit. It really concentrates the flavour. It does tighten the draw a bit but the amount of extra flavour surprised me.

Night all. I just watched For a Few Dollars More (for the millionth time) with my son (his first time). Great fun! Who doesn't love Clint and Lee Van Cleef ?

For clarification, because apparently humour needs it now...

I cant see whatevers going on but ill guess it refers to the curry and chilled TP joke. Its a well known joke in my country, via the UK, and i didnt invent it, it has nothing to do with race, and in fact comes from Billy Connolly, a scotsman who enjoys curries...please, those who object, please contact Billy Connolly

Please everyone, can we please just maintain the usually pleasant spirit this thread was created with. Y'all are making me just plain sad.

On topic...I'm liking the jackaroo tank so ordered 5pk on sale at sourcemore (0.3 8.23pk preorder).

I was trying to find some ‘real’ masks but no luck yet. I’ll have to see if I have any cotton hiding here and make some, if for no other reason than so I can be the first in the county to wear one.

I saw a video on Twitter how to make one with a bandana and two ponytail holders. Might try that.

I bet you could make some awesome ones. I did not have much cotton material around here so I started using Bandana's. I made some for family, a few for friends. Then I was asked to make more and had to say NO as my arthritic fingers were beat (and I have that 30 cat hammocks hanging over my head) Just when I thought it was safe to shut down the mask making area in my house, my Pastor called and needed two. I mean, how do you say NO to your Pastor?

I think the prevailing theory now is ANY fabric offers some level of protection, people are cutting up old s-shirts etc

Don't read below if the anxious type, ive been wondering this for days

Devils advocate, but i have to wonder how healthy it is to breathe your own bacteria into a mask for hours, heat it constantly with your exhaled breath and rebreathe it, or to have bacteria land on the outside and have a nice warm bed to grow and maybe then migrate through. Time for googling!


fwiw

Filtration efficiencies:

  • Dust mask: 6.1%
  • Bandana: 11.3%
  • Surgical mask: 33.3%
  • N95 respirator: 89.6%
