We're All Doomed!™ (the Conquest, War, Famine, and Death Thread)

The primary goal of this site is to provide mature, meaningful discussion about the Vancouver Canucks. However, we all need a break some time so this forum is basically for anything off-topic, off the wall, or to just get something off your chest! This forum is named after poster Creeper, who passed away in July of 2011 and was a long time member of the Canucks message board community.

Yet interestingly, some Merikins are asking the good people of Canada to invade them (and don’t forget to bring the public healthcare)...

It seems most people assume that there are only two outcomes:

1. A vaccine is found and everyone is vaccinated. Eradication is inevitable.
2. Most people eventually gets covid and the general population acquires herd immunity (i.e. the Sweden approach). The virus eventually disappears once it's done its culling.

A third possibility is that the so-called "natural immunity" gained by getting covid is not long-lasting. So it would be like the cold (another coronavirus) where your immunity wears off in a short timeframe. We could see countries split into two groups: those who have eradicated it (like NZ) and those who haven't and probably never will (e.g. USA).

I'm guessing Canada would fall into the eradication group, along with a number of Asia-Pacific countries. But they would be in the minority. Leaders would feel under pressure to keep border lockdowns in place, leading to massive implications for business travel, commercial traffic, and leagues like the NHL, NBA, and MLB.

I guess this third option really just boils down to discovering a vaccine, if that is even possible. If not, then what. Will I ever get to visit NZ? Will JT under pressure from Trump open the border?

Fentanyl is the solution, not the problem.
Over the Internet, you can pretend to be anyone or anything.

I'm amazed that so many people choose to be complete twats.

I've always felt that sentences for DUI are far too lenient, I've suggested they should prosecute it as attempted neglicient homicide, but even I think executing people in a parking lot without trial is a bit over the top. :|

Ummm....yeah. Just a bit. DUI and texting and driving (which is kinda new) should be way heavier when you consider the potential consequences of those actions.
