When the volcano started erupting outside Manila they sold out of surgical masks, thought it myself someone could’ve made a killing in the black market.
Not to rush you old friend, but been waiting 60 days for you to make your next move.

Perhaps they will have the last laugh when you run out and they still have toilet tissue! 😉

If you log in tomorrow sir and immediately checkmate me, I won't be happy.

Actually the last few pages contained only very few predictions.

I predict that most threads will be derailed by petty bickering in the GF in the coming 10 years.

That’s rather pessimistic of you.

I particularly dislike petty bickering. I much prefer my bickering to be broad-minded.

A friend told me he had had an official death threat on Facebook.
I asked him what an unofficial death threat was.

Perhaps something we shouldn't be joking about? Especially with what is going on in the world.

Actually people seem to enjoy the petty bickering/bantering which ever you like to call it.

Have you checked out the Debate and Spirituality Forums those can get quite serious at times, most of the stuff in the GF is more clowning around than anything of a serious nature. The Clan Forum at times can get pretty rough, I wouldn't be too quick to pick on the GF.

Leave him be. He's just engaging in a wee bit of his version of virtue signalling.
