Rants and WTF are you talking about and Coronavirus!

I don't see the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution as overly involved with immigration. There was a group of people in the USA Before that and did that. Calling the melting pot thing an experiment is nonsensical considering all the migrations and intermixing of humankind and other hominids in history and prehistory. It seems like political rhetoric to me. I imagine it is good political rhetoric nonetheless. It does seem dumb though. It is akin to rewriting history.

You're certainly right in that the melting pot idea was not the experiment that was intended when the Constitution was established. That term was mis-allocated in the video as "experiment" was supposed to refer to the "experiment of democracy. " Nonetheless, the melting pot claim came to fruition as America established citizenship by birthright, just soli. Most of the Western hemisphere / Americas did follow suit but it remains a foreign concept in most of the old world.

There are many Americans who retain the old world point of view but I relegate them to a dying perspective. But a pet peeve of mine is when immigrants who obtain American citizenship themselves still don't refer to themselves as American. The American mindset is clear though. Various people with European backgrounds have become automatically accepted as American (Not the case with Europeans in other European countries). Black Americans are also unquestioned. People of Hispanic origin are increasingly becoming American first as their numbers grow. Asians have a bit further to go and they are often their own worst enemies in this process.

I never understood how closing at night stops covid?

So covid is not transmitted in the daytime? I would think that keeping open at night and capacity limits would thin the crowd and keep a lower occupancy averaged throughout the entire timespan and thus be safer.

The reasoning in large cities in the States was that night crowds were drinking crowds and masking and distancing was thrown out the window.

During the flu wave a few years ago there were over 700 patients on intensive care in Norway from flu alone. Now there are about 150 covid patients on intensive care. Guess how many people with flu there are on intensive care now? I'll let the smart ones ponder about that. Then I'll respond later if you manage somewhat of a correct answer. LOL.

I didn't write Norway is the worst rate, but they are already on third dose for older than 18. Highest rates are Austria with more than 700/100 000, some German parts with 900/100 000. UK with around 300/100 000. In France, we have in 20's or 30's people without known health risk and vaccinated since 6 months, who are now badly sick from covid. Wish not to be worst after vaccine than before, when finished my 3 months Summer tour today, fighting in cold and windy, 5 degrees but less for sensation with wind, on last 5 kilometers on top of Ventoux from Bedoin. For my last day, when climbed from Malaucene yesterday, more than 3000 meters climbing on this week end for final, climbed 4 times Ventoux on October / November, more than 35 000 meters high on this Summer, not taking pills nor cafeine as told by a 21 yo Danish racer who preferred to stop rather than taking like others, so I decided I could move deeply inside my flesh, killing my body in windy and cold. But You don t get covid above Reynard chalet, even in cold and wind. Ski in Austria maybe with 2 G when Austria want to put under lockdown those who are not. Pass for ski in France with no more antigen but only PCR for tests.

Now, no room after 6 pm at 6 sens NL. Clubs have to respect law if they don't want to be closed, when GT didn't reopen on 2020 reopening.

You are a hoot, alright. Desperately looking to belong, blend in. Did you learn English by watching kung fu movies? Who the fuck looks up words to decide if they are still in vogue? Just another sign of diffidence. Explains why you are always looking to build a posse even for online flame fights. And your contention that you can gather more from a 2 minute "baby where you go" convo with a bored Romie than an hour of dinner with a real woman. I wonder if you lost your virginity in these fuck clubs!

Kick the robot, he's stuck in a loop again.

40 something? LOL.

Methinks you should pull your knickers out of your pantaloons Larry.

Malarkey I tell ya. Malarkey!

After Austria going 2 G, with the evolution in Germany it's possible that they will go 2 G as well soon. In Switzerland we are told that 2 G is not yet necessary. Seems that next measure will be opening booster shots for the general population.

Berlin goes to 2 G on Monday.

At first, I didn't understand why things are worse in continental Europe than UK or USA. Then I looked at booster data. UK 4 X more booster per capita than De / EU and USA is 2 X.

My mistake for Norway, now third dose but for older than 18. Very high covid cases rate now in Austria, also in ex DDR part in Germany, increasing fast in NL, Belgium and UK. Some hospitals there being already full. In France, some vaccinated since 6 months are now badly sick. Is Pfizer fucking the world with vaccine only efficient for 3 days? Wish at least not to be more sick after than before vaccine when I feel really fine, powerful for sport, even after more than 35 visits on this year, many also on 2020 reopening, kissing, datying, so many in Germany, NL, Switzerland, Austria. As I told my elegant who told me: orgasm exhaust me, so she prefers not, needing time to recover after, but you found my point she said, when most important for me with kissing, when most intimate for girls and reminding me my sexuality with girlfriends. So much more interesting and enjoyable game than porn sex for me and my regulars would not accept in public, like Megan at Globe who didn't even want in Spartacus close to lounge.

6 sens in NL on German border close now at 8 pm, when cases are increasing in NL. Norway is now on third dose for older than 12. Fifth dose is covering Europe.

You know, I wasn't worried about the cases all that much but now with deaths popping, it's getting hairy. The next week in hospitalization numbers will be of most importance.

Malarkey? It was semi cute when Biden said it 40 years ago. Not when the 40 something CCP troll plagiarizes it.

Language does not get thrown out every 3 years like a recycled iPhone. Words and phrases you grew up with in the family stay with you. Hard for the stowaway nutcase to understand.

Old Man Word 97: Fopdoodle

1. An insignificant fellow. (Vulgar and not used.)

1828 Definition of a Fopdoodle

I have to be honest with this one. Even amongst the large-diapers set, fopdoodle is pretty quaint. It hasnt been removed from the dictionary so some old mother must use the term but chaps who say fopdoodle are dandies. Swells. Persnickety snoots too big for their urine-soaked britches. Uppity fops.

https://oldmanwords.wordpress.com/20...-97-fopdoodle/


Although fopdoodle was already considered archaic in the 1880s, it still appeared in print regularly; notably in a poem from 1881 .

Malarkey I tell ya. Malarkey!

American reality that both Europeans who've never lived in America and Americans who have never lived outside of America just can't fully understand or don't want to accept. Especially 00:25 to 2:15.
