Darwin. There, someone had to say it.

Well I originally saw this post as someone who was bored in lockdown and thought they'd roll a grenade into the room and see what happened.
Seems to have highlighted a lot of different mindsets, from those who have taken it ever so seriously, through those that kind of agree but don't have the balls to admit it, right on down to those who honestly don't know if the OP was being serious or not and prefer to hope that it was a huge windup?

I'm still being positive and noting that we have now filled 4 pages without using the c-r-n-v-r-s word. :?

How about forced euthanasia for anyone over 70.

Work until you're 50, then retire for a guaranteed 20 years (unless you die beforehand) on an average-salary government-funded pension (that is paid for by taxes during your working life, plus whatever you've decided to save to add to it yourself), then have a nice party with all your family & friends a couple of days before your euthanasia appointment and then be ground up into food like Soylent Green.

Maybe also implement some sort of 'points' system, starting with 100, and every visit to hospital/prison removes some of them (more points for bigger, longer, more serious), and when you get to zero you're time is up.

Only semi-joking :|

Excellent idea ..........why not start a company to aid with the extermination........call it , hmmmmm I/G.Farben

So....end of day one...on reflection how do you think your post went Chris....? :surrender: :chophead:
Well, all things considered John, I think it went absolutely swimmingly! :lol:
Enormously encouraging to see that I can coax and provoke all you embittered, grumpy and self-righteous old codgers into responding with such varied and vigorous retorts! :evil:

Watch out for future posts where I shall be expressing even more popular opinions and ideas....
:thumbsup:
:rofl:

Embittered, grumpy and self righteous...?? Who wrote the initial post in the first place..? I don’t think you see the irony in the response above Chris. So you’re saying anyone who doesn’t live like you or do as you do doesn’t deserve medical assistance...? Sounds about as grumpy and self righteous as it gets to me tbh...

As I said I get the frustration but you really haven’t thought it through very much hence the replies you’re getting, some may be a little over zealous but you knew you’d get some stick, accept it, if you write such articles, and why not air your views, it’s fine, but getting stroppy because you don’t like anyone having a different opinion to you isn’t doing you any favours. :thumbsup:
 
You already replied to that post John and now you’re replying to it again in an elevated state of tizziness!
Easy on fella, you’ll bust ur tenalady! :lol:

I don’t get it? Did you wake up this morning thinking ‘I simply must have another go at that fekin upstart again! Grrr’
#letslinchthebastid

You of all people should know me well enough that I’m winding you up a bit!
You’ve been properly reeled in mate!
:rofl:

It’s ok We’ve our wives to keep us company in self isolation Chris_D has only his tapes, tears and pics of “his good lady friend” :sick: to pine over :wkr: cos she can never be his. Thinking he is funny when people just find him sad and pathetic. :owned: :stir: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:
 
I'm just glad, that nasty man didn't mention the superior-ness of baldness being placed against the wall. We follicly challenged have so much to offer the world.
I think we should build a big bonfire and place old Chris atop it :fuelfire:
:rofl: :rofl:
