The General Covid19 Thread

Homegrove

That’s some balls explaining Finland to me. The biggest reason we have everything so swell is we developed highly functioning education and healthcare, and social safety nets that are free for all in the sixties and seventies. With tax money.

Think he’s just making sure your fixation with the yanks doesn’t mean you haven’t a scooby what’s going on where it actually matters, ie. where you live, mate!

zackster

Homegrove lol I totally agree with you, however I do seem to recall you explaining the American political landscape to me on one or two occasions 🤗.

Obviously I’m not explaining Finland to you. I‘ve spent one day in Finland and I don’t really know much about it.

I will say one thing about the Finns, they are nice enough but can come across as quite strange. And I don’t get why a lot of the men have like really croaky voices, what the hell is that about?

Homegrove

C_J not used to speaking.

C_J

zackster this is what creates opportunities for disruption though.

zackster

C_J no it doesn’t. It’s been exactly the opposite. Nothing can be disrupted if one company has bought all of theIr competition and turned their products into just another brand. InBev is the perfect example.

Would like to hear Hannu’s sexy gruff Finn voice layered over his mixes. Could see his listen count and likes on Soundcloud skyrocket.

We ate here in Helsinki

Probably one of the best restaurants I’ve ever been to.

Half-way through the meal the waiter marches over and gruffly states, without a hint of a smile:

”you are having a good time”

Not a question.

Millsy

C_J lol! Think Hanners employs the same bloke to whisper in the ears of revellers at his gigs too.

Looks awful that restaurant CJ.

Along_the_Wire

Definitely not up my strasse that.

Smallman1

Pared back Scandi food served in a horribly pretentious restaurant that has absolutely zero atmosphere.

Not for me thanks.

bosstrabs

Smallman1 Yeah, stick to ‘North China’ (which serves third generation southern Chinese food) or ‘Sea Containers’.

Smallman1

I’m all about Le Manoir nowadays Dave.

Smallman1

Nobody knows the UK restaurant scene like me.

Grant knows his stuff too tbf.

zackster

Smallman1 Grant knows his stuff too tbf.

Couple of cheese swervers, if you know what I mean.

zackster Zack, take 2 seconds to google the 5 year ANHEUSER-BUSCH INBEV share price.

They are an analogue company is a digital world. A dinosaur.

Homegrove

zackster lol I totally agree with you, however I do seem to recall you explaining the American political landscape to me on one or two occasions 🤗

What I did was explain how you’re situation is beyond help, if not for complete annihilation, so you might as well just vote for the less evil in the big league, and divest in the big issues in the small league.

zackster

C_J yet they dictate the components used in most all mico brews. Try to find wheat that that they dont own and genetically modify to retain patent rights over.

And I think that the recent events in the world have proven that the “market” is a total joke. The us markets have all rebounded despite unemployment being at an all time high and a global pandemic still fully underway.

I see the Bank of England have started magically creating new money again. Only £100 billion this time around.

Along_the_Wire

mono-stereo It could come in handy

Hursty

mono-stereo wouldn’t even pay for phase 1 of HS2 at this rate!

Old-Dutch

mono-stereo

Lol and it will end up in the same hands that it always does. If we were to try the same shenanigans, I believe it would be called counter-fitting.
