Not hard at all. I’ll thank Andy or any other vet.

Would I think it was no longer political? No.
Would I still think Fauci is an ass? Yes
Would I still resent the shutdowns? Yes

The fact that such drama and drastic measures are being taken, for a virus with a 98-99% survival rate, is pathetically humorous.

Mine and Mick's posts are about the absurdity. Don't read more in to it than that.
Exactly. My sarcastic comments were not directed at anyone dying, currently dead, or that might or will die in the future, nor was there any implication of such. It was purely a mockery of the ridiculous bullshit the MSM is putting out there every day. But some people will stretch things enormous distances to try to find a way to be offended by it. That's their problem, not mine.

Oh wait, are we allowed to joke about your poop chute? Asking for Aerovette.


I still have the entire asshole, thanks. And you, Aero, or anybody else can joke about it all you want. Getting butthurt about what somebody you don't know types on social media is for pussies.

Oh, wait...

Well, I'll just have to be the one to inform you of this little fact:


ALL... and I do mean each and every single instance of gallows humor... would be hurtful if repeated in the presence of the people involved with the very subject of any given piece of gallows humor.

From the families of the Space Shuttle astronauts, family members of any person who didn't survive through your ER unit, etc etc etc.

And Yet... gallows humor still exists. Why, you might ask? When, if presented to certain people, it would be cruel, offensive and hurtful?

Well I'll tell you. It's for the very reason you spelled out in the quoted text above... it's to help you cope with what you see and deal with as part of your job.

So by that definition, according to being absolutely nonoffensive to everybody, anyone who uses gallows humor is guilty of being non politically correct.

So don't get on your high horse about others' use of GH. In other words, pot, meet kettle.

Spare me.

Everyone that has ever called me an asshole, did so with a grin or a laugh. Until today, my ex is the only one that meant it.

I find joking with others about a specific patient that you have treated to be more of an asshole move than a joke that has no specific person in mind.

If Mick's wife died of Rona, would bet he wouldn't make a joke of it then. But I could be wrong.....
Yeah, your passive-aggressive bullshit will get nowhere with me.
