Yeah, that place out 'there'. Anything not really Cambodia related should go here.

Can't remember where I got this, but I laughed my ass off at it.
James Blunt actually did do this.

Lies or only his opinion? he even admits he is NOT a dr.....
This is Fox News’s standard excuse when caught lying too, “We’re just giving opinion”. And it’s bullshit, you don’t get to hide behind “opinion” when literally millions of people are taking that opinion as fact and acting on it. It’s from the same weasel-word factory as “People are saying…”, it’s disingenuous. You don’t get to spread lies and then stick in a tiny half-disclaimer at the end as though it absolves you of anything.

Okay fine, I made that up... :facepalm:

But even if I were hardcore pro-vax and not spewing whatever I read in the headlines, I'd consider changing my tune because of people like you. Learn some tact for christ's sake...

Is Joe Rogan's music any good? I've never heard of him.

The irony about Young’s “protest” is that Young himself has a history of spreading medical disinfo. In the 1980s, he went on a bizarre crusade against gays working in public places, because he thought you could get AIDS by touching something a gay person had touched.

“You go to the supermarket and you see a faggot behind the fucking cash register, you don’t want him to handle your potatoes.”
Apparently, Mr. Young was also a big fan of a budding musician by the name of Charles Manson.

Manson seems to recall his friendship with Young favourably, stating from his Vacaville prison cell in 1995 that all the other Laurel Canyon musicians wrote him off, and “didn’t give a shit” – except for Neil Young.

“Charlie remembers me too, huh?” Young remarked when told of Manson’s fondness. “Everybody else ripped him off. I gave him a motorcycle. I turned out to be a good guy.”
I didn't realize he was such a crackpot. This song is all about the Manson Family.

Being a smoker, it's not like anyone would take a pro-smoking choice for health reasons,
60 years ago they would, having a blurred view because of the pro tobacco lobby...

Tact? It’s not like I’ve called you names or accused you of manslaughter or anything like that. You’d refuse life saving medical treatment because someone on the internet made you feel bad when they corrected you? How fragile is your ego?

What happened to “facts not feelings”?

They both are polio survivors. That should add some context.
