The thing is, if there's one skill that guy possesses it's the capacity to tell bare-faced lies, spout nonsense & then just do a handbrake turn & claim it all as his great wisdom. The whole world heard him say American churches would be packed on Easter Sunday! The worst fear for me is that if he senses he's losing, he will find a way to cancel the election (I assume they must be getting behind schedule anyway with the primaries?)

Is it that they weren't taking it seriously, didn't follow their own advice or maybe just wanted to avoid the cameras. I'm unaware of too many other politicans having it, although that my just be because its not been as well publicized. It's a Commie conspiracy? Waiters spitting in their soup? Wanking into their salad? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pasta seems a bit cheap for financial advice and last thing we want is the blowjob devalued from the off risking the need to suck someone off for a Chomp even with a loo roll change.

thplinth Posted April 2, 2020 Share Posted April 2, 2020 (edited) What over-the-counter drugs would be good to have in your medicine cabinet right now? I read that ibuprofen is a bad idea with this particular virus so what would be a good alternative? Anyone got any views? (I fully understand I should check with my doctor first etc etc.) I have bought some sudafed type products (just in case) but feck knows if they are that advisable. Anything else out there that might prove useful should the flu hit the fan? Edited April 2, 2020 by thplinth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
