				If My Favorite Pop Idol Made It to the Budokan, I Would Die
Top Gun replied to Hidden's topic in Anime & Manga
Subtitle: "...because I didn't socially isolate and avoid crowded places." - 
	If you're not a virology expert, you don't really have any place speculating about timelines. Let the people who know what they're talking about do the talking.
 - 
	...literally every single consulted expert is saying that a vaccine will take AT LEAST 12 to 18 months to be ready for mass distribution. Where are you getting this incorrect info?
 - 
	Pretty much every epidemiologist consulted has said that blanket travel bans accomplish very little at this point. The virus is already widespread across the country. The concern isn't spread via someone from Europe, it's spread via close social interactions, hence social distancing. As you said, it's comparatively easy to screen people at airports; the real challenge is finding out who has it in a community (which is made exponentially harder when the asshole-in-chief royally fucks up the initial response). The only real chance a travel ban would have is if you went all President Madagascar and locked down every single border before the virus started to spread, but that would have been impossible. And no, you should ABSOLUTELY NOT automatically go to the ER if you have a fever. That is a fantastic way to either expose yourself to illness or expose someone else. Stay at home, call your primary doctor, and follow their advice. If they recommend some sort of testing be done, they'll let you know how it should be accomplished. There's a reason hospitals and cities are trying to set up drive-through testing stations: they don't want infected individuals putting others at unnecessary risk. Obviously if you're in any sort of immediate respiratory distress, then go the ER or call 911.

				Trunks Thread 19.1: A New New Frontier
Top Gun replied to PokeNirvash's topic in Toonami & [adult swim]
Someday I will stop laughing at these. It is not today. - 
	If the virus is already endemic in the country, shutting the borders accomplishes little. It's too late at that point.
 - 
	Pence should be an expert at epidemics. I mean he directly caused an HIV one in Indiana.

				Crunchyroll reveals first batch of “Crunchyroll Originals”
Top Gun replied to Jman's topic in Anime & Manga
Jman is literally the only person who cares about that show either way. - 
	Nothing about what they've said is an over-exaggeration.

				I hate that right after cleaning the bathroom I have to poop
Top Gun replied to Naraku4656's topic in Free-For-All
Even worse is needing to shit right after you take a shower. - 
	We've barely seen a flake of snow this winter, and it's going to be almost fucking 60 next week. Fuck this year.
 - 
	Poke what are you even talking about.

				New True Facts: Mating Dance of The Peacock Spider
Top Gun replied to Gina Szanboti's topic in Free-For-All
zefrank is dormant for two years and then starts slinging fire like this. It's a beautiful thing. - 
	
 - 
	...no one is saying that besides you.
 - 
	Since when is getting more of (generally) very good shows a bad thing for the block?
 - 
	So one Toonami show, and another show that probably should have been on Toonami but Genndy complained. I mean you might as well just keep the block packaging around it at that point.

				how come we can't delete our accounts?
Top Gun replied to discolé monade's topic in UEMB.com Community Discussion
That's because you're sane and not a total dick. But I'm a member of a forum where a certain...special individual once went back and edited blank every single post he'd ever made, including some that were almost a decade old. It rendered a shitload of conversations almost unreadable in a heartbeat. I don't think that forum ever allowed for individuals to delete posts, but that incident led to it implementing a hard time limit on being able to edit one's posts, which is essentially an equivalent. I could easily see some of our lovely userbase pulling a similar stunt at some point. - 
	The Hunter Exam was a lot more than that single final tournament. The badge-collecting on the island was a much better version of Naruto's scroll thing, for one.
 - 
	The Chunin Exams were a direct ripoff of the Hunter Exam. Just like pretty much everything else in early Naruto was a direct ripoff of HxH.

Top Gun replied to discolé monade's topic in UEMB.com Community Discussion
Users being able to delete posts has the very likely potential to turn old threads into an absolute clusterfuck. If you don't want something to be public, maybe don't post it in the first place? - 
	There's only one person I see who's acting smug here. And lol thinking that they'd need to copy something you made. Or even know it existed.
