When (I'm saying when as I'm being optimistic) a covid19 vaccine is developed, there will obviously be the anti-vaxxer movement to deal with.

Idea: Make "vaccine detoxification drug" which in reality is just a relabled dosage of the vaccine and offer it to all the anti vaxxers.

Problem solved

Better yet. Say it only lasts 2-5 years and that they will need a "detoxification booster" so they come back for the next one.

All anti-vaxxers should be given a 'Darwin Award'.

I was following a mini today and it smelled so good. It had wide arches and looked so cool and tiny!

I have been on this forum since I was 13. The people here helped me through some of the toughest years of my life growing up. I used to flyer minis with TMF business cards on driveways after school. I met the love of my life here. Some of my friends are still here, some have died, I’m sure there’s new ones to be made. I was always crazy (this has been clinically confirmed hahaha), I feel like maybe I said too much or didn’t have the filter that most people had (this post is a paradox). So yeah, it’s a good little spot this. Minis are a part of me, and all the time there’s minis there will be TMF. And there’s always gonna be minis so it looks like we’re here to stay! I’m on a nightshift. I remember being 16, being very optimistic thinking it would all work out. 10 years later I guess it sorta did. I’m going to bump this post in 2030 if I’m still around.

PEACE, love & unity.

Two good things that have occurred due to Covid19 (although these in no way out way the negatives)

1. I now have an excuse not to socialise, allowing me to work on the Mini and not be judged because of "my safety concerns".

2. Couriers never take a parcel back to their depot or just put a note through your door because they couldn't be a***d to deliver it. Its always hidden in a bin, left with a neighbour, etc, etc.

I also wonder how much fun my A level in product design would have been if I had had to do it from home armed with the laptop I currently own, contents of my spare room and garage setup.

I suppose I also have to ask if my mate Alex would still have spray painted his arm silver and become the "bionic man".

Maybe we can all actually fly like the kids do in Peter Pan but for the last 30 years or so the world has gone such so to s*** that none of us have had a happy enough thought for it to happen.

I remember the time when if you walked into a Bank with a mask on you would be rugby tackled to the ground before you made it to the counter.

....now the same outcome is likely if you DON'T have a mask on.

It's strange how petrol stations prefer motorcyclist to keep their helmets on now instead of taking them off.

In the good old days at work, I used to complain often that we were always trying to reinvent the wheel. And I added that every time that we did, we added another flat spot to it. 

One day one of the guys said to my comment that there was a corollary to it. That if we added enough flat spots to the wheel, it would eventually be round again.

However he added, as the number of flat spots approached infinity and as the diameter of the wheel was being reduced, we would end up just dragging the axle.    :huh:

In Terminator 2,the T1000 mimics a police officer as that is the first person he comes across. He always resorts back to that disguise.

Had the T1000 landed in the zoo could he have possibly mimicked a panda and therefore this would have been the default disguise he would keep resorting back to.

Can you imagine watching a panda run at 40mph after John Connor? That is a directors cut I want to see

All dogs entered at Crufts must be KC Registered.

 

....If Korea did a version of Crufts would the dogs have to be KFC registered?
