Is there anyone who has not had Covid?

Not I, as far as I know.

Is there anyone who has not had Covid?

My doctor is pretty sure I had it right before everyone started talking about it. Landed me in the ER but they weren't even testing for it yet. Turned into long COVID and I now finally feel more like myself....as in, I can breathe again after a couple years of being short of breath and quite a while on various inhalers.

I remember i cought for a week i think, heavy coughing. I never considered it could be Covid. But i probably had it then

anybody else feels the whole "Guys in movies fighting, but never crying" is interesting.

Now if you look at this hilarious bad but awesome fight scene here. The cop here has a reason here, he is trying to bring down a psychotic rapist.
So i guess it makes sense of his line of work and overall no emotional reasons to cry

But interms of most normal fights is probably between people you know, and people always cry there in fights of emotional struggle.
So i always feels like i am misled in hollywood movies.

Then again i heard Nazis tried something to not make kid soldiers cry, and that was to make them kill rabbits or such, to essentially train them to become emotionless. Its screwed up though but yeah

Are we talking about fist fights here?

I tended bar for years and saw several.  None of the guys ever cried though their wives or girlfriends sometimes did (if they didn't jump into the fray themselves.)

My dad had a tactic that worked well.  He started giving me a second beating if I cried, so I learned not to cry.  Now I simply can't cry.  Of course, you can't really call it a fight when one person was doing the fighting and the other person taking it.

As for rabbits, dad had mom cook up my sister's three pet rabbits for dinner.  My sister and I ate something else while we watched the bunnies floating in gravy.  They had names for goodness sake.

Oh, and thank you for using the random thoughts thread.

Gosh, really?

As to the fighting thing, most real world fights (actual fighting, not the shouting and posturing bit) last a few seconds at most. I never had time to get worked up enough to cry.

The best way to hide your criminality is behind a veil of religiosity.

I hate the idea that I won't be remembered for anything positive after I die. But it can't be helped. My life is filled with negativity and darkness and I won't be remembered for anything good, even though I'm not all bad.
