The 2km limit, stopped by the Guards going to work every single day.
It was absolutely crazy times when you think of it.
ā¬9 meals, people not allowed go to their own parents/siblings funerals. Weāll only realise the scale of it on Reeling in the Years way down the line.

The arrogance of Killeen was something to behold though, and the stupid cunt was miles out with every prediction. We were going to have freezer trucks full of bodies according to him at one stage, a year and a half in. I suppose you have to factor in his corkness, which didnāt help.

As a fully committed awkward squad member. Its great to be alive after it and proved right.
The shame of not being vaccinated was unbelievable.

The countdown every evening to the case numbers, Dr Death and Millhouse spelling out the gravity.
āThe Department of Health have been informed of a further 879 cases of Covid-19, a 26% increase on the 7 day figure and reflective of the significant increase in incidence of the disease. These figures are extremely worrying. Come together by staying apart, ye cunts.ā

I wouldnt mind but they were mostly cases of no symptoms. The RT-PCR test at the cycles they used would pick up any aul virus.
I remember having to leave a whatsapp group over comparing it to the flu in early 2021.
Professor Philip Nolan was some chancer with his āmodelsā.
He was completely making it up.

When you think back you can only laugh at some of the takes here from back then. Glas advocating we borrow borrow borrow. Free money. Zero interest rates. Wonder how that would have worked out. Thats before we ever get into the vaccine certs. 
Then you had Carryharry pushing back on the pubs saying they should all be serving food if they wanted to open. āGet with the times manā. As if food would have staved off an airborne virus. The practicalities of hiring a chef. Spoiler alert you cant get one or installing a kitchen for 10s of thousands of euros didnt dawn on this particular genius.
Its endless really. So many examples. You could write a book. With new material presenting itself every day. Its why I love this place.
