    It still blows my mind that so many people thought (and in many cases still do) that the vaccine had some nefarious purpose.

    I remember 2021 mainly for arguing with morons online about it.

      A guy I worked with refused to wear the mask and get the vaccine. He called me diaperface. He got the virus and afterwards was incontinent. I am a nice guy so I never once pointed out that he was the one wearing the diaper now, but I was so so tempted.

        Hopefully they’re a bit more humble these days then. I won’t lie, it makes me happy to know some people like that got what was coming to them. A bitter prick I might be but after watching my wife teeter on the brink of collapse working on the wards I have no sympathy for anyone who’s chosen to believe anything but the overwhelming scientific consensus.

        If you need to believe that EVERYTHING the government does is wrong then you’re as bad as people who believe that everything they do is good. Unfortunately the pandemic seemed to create swathes of people like that who reduce an argument all the way down to absurdity.

        I think in your position I wouldn’t be able to help myself, maybe I wouldn’t directly make fun of his incontinence but I’d probably ask if he remembers when he used to call me diaperface or something like that, just a sly reminder to him what a cunt he was.
