Iâm not saying anything of the sort - people are vaccinated to protect against the worst cases. Iâm saying give the vaccines a chance, or else whatâs the point. People will rail against the vaccines if there are going to be lockdowns as well.
No they werenât. It was nice wedge for a fella in his early twenties with fuckall responsibility. For any fella with kids/mortgage/commitments/gambling issues it was fuckall. You craft a life and budget accordingly. And weâve seen recently how much they taxed us on the supposedly ânice wedgeâ. For any fella with a bit about him that was working or running his own business it has been a disaster.
Also, and I donât say this lightly, fuck you, you glib cunt.
Which is worse? Being cavalier about the strong possibility thousands of deaths or not having a âmeaningful Christmasâ - ie. lads being let off the leash for one piss up?
You called it from Day One, to be fair to you. Youâve been vindicated every step of the way, this is lockdown by the back door and so therefore you win that charity wager you had with another poster about there being a winter 2021 lockdown.
I was fooled by the vaccines. I mistakenly thought theyâd be our ticket out of this. Clearly not, thereâll be more and more variants. More rolling lockdowns, more fear, more division. More diktats from Taoiseach Holohan.
Itâs incredibly grim. 2 years later and weâre still in the gutter.
