    Are you getting addicted to any song(s)

    Arguably the heaviest band ever. Seeing them live was a transcendent experience. Also this: They were also massive live. Rock concerts are what I miss most due to corona.

    Corona virus

    I hope one positive outcome from this is that eventually professionals are accepted for their mistakes/wrong actions.

    Corona virus

    I can't find any relevant quotes and this might be irrelevant misinformation from me but I had read a theory about how people with addictions manage to survive and thrive in abnormal times, like for example during WW1 and 2. Probably not true or effective in these times or against corona I bet.

    Corona virus

    I had bad cold issues when I was in India, would sneeze like 6-7 times. I think it was humidity plus having a deviated septum but idk. It somehow stopped after I moved to Canada though despite that it rains a lot here too.

    Corona-virus: medical tips and tricks thread

    Co-operatives are definitely the way to go in India. I think our temperament and self policing instincts make that kind of thing strong.

    Corona virus

    Just put him on ignore. Quite an achievement really coz, I'd never put anyone on ignore till date in over two decades of being in several forums.

    Corona virus

    I had him on ignore for a week or so before people started referring about him. Yes, pretending this guy doesn't exist is a good strategy. It frustrates me to read his posts. Renegade also has excused blr_p's explicit bigotry even though he tries to pretend to be a voice of reason here.

    Wish to buy a hair clipper new

    I tried to cut my hair using my beard trimmer. Was a big fail, luckily social distancing and I had a cap to hide my fail. Ordered a clipper, waiting for it to arrive by next week :D

    What exactly is Government of India doing?

    idk about others but the folks i've worked in healthcare related psu's would always be open to being taught though me and few of my colleagues left because of this kind of sad politics. i am willing to admit being wrong but that is sadly something we can't accept in india without nasty...

    lol indian govt workers are only known for their corruption but many of them work hard and selflessly and in most cases were smart enough to get those jobs aside from bribes etc. imo it is many of the so called corrupt guys who actually know how to get things done coz they have studied the...

    Corona virus

    I was never a fan of the guy but to me it seems like Pinarayi Vijayan really stepped up, done as good of a job as possible under the circumstances. I guess he learned a lot from the floods and nipah before that,

    What exactly is Government of India doing?

    Without lockdown and with easy access to groceries and I am still not doing ok mentally, in Canada. I can't imagine what my friends and family in India are going through in this times.

    Lockdown gets over OR get extended ? What do you think ?

    Canadian govt. is saying they expect it to be at least till next year at the earliest before they expect things to go back to normal in terms of social distancing. Vaccine seems like the only way out.

    What exactly is Government of India doing?

    It is legitimately a slur based on context and repeated negative use, could give similar examples for other states, could even call him names back but would be defeating the purpose there. I'm sure blr_p being the most verbose person on the forum can manage to spell it right.
