Not me....Tom Cruise.

This is fab. Ole Tom rips into two crew members for breaking Covid protocols. Dude can curse like a sailor, but not as well as an Air Force flighline mechanic on a Friday night....I may have to send him some tips.

Thing is, his rant brings up a lot of good points. The one I take away is that jobs are the most important thing, and if peeps are just careful and thoughtful, then there is no reason to shut down ANY business.

These vile rules we are unuder are for stupid people. Dont be stupid.


Tom's rant here....

Screw their jobs. What’s essential about another MI movie? There are complete businesses shutdown that actually served a somewhat essential service, it wasn’t allowed to stay open due to people like him.

Thats rather generic. Is your job more important or something?

He's not susceptible to illness. He's clear....

He was just doing that for the benefit of the humans....

How about we only allow people of a certain IQ or free of certain genetic defects reproduce for the benefit of humans.....

However comma

One of my favorite parts from the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy......

Douglas Adams right again: Lack of phone sanitizers will doom planet

collateraldamage.wordpress.com...

As you doubtlessly remember, somewhere in the Hitchhiker’s Guide series Mr. Adams told the story of the The Golgafrinchans, a race of people who sent their Telephone Sanitizer population away. The Sanitizers were sent along with another third of the planet’s population who were also deemed useless to form a colony on a remote planet (Earth as it happens). Of course, the remaining Golgafrinchan population was then wiped out by a virulent disease contracted via unsanitary telephones.

I think I've heard that idea before somewhere....

The problem with humans isn't genetic or IQ related...

Smart people with good genes are currently running the world, no?

How's that working out?

NIce! Never read the book, but saw the movie.

That job no longer exists, the Democrats successfully killed the small business while allowing the bigger business down the street keep their doors open. You know that saying from the left, democracy and stuff.

That sucks and sorry to hear that. I see that here in the UK. Close the pubs and restaurants, but the big grocery stores chains can operate at will.

I think Tom was just saying what most peeps feel right now.

I am not sure. Because of social distancing, and the regulation of family based religious and / or social gatherings, I am sinking further into an augmented existence in Minecraft. Living online so the NSA can track me 24-7. And limiting my personal face to face conversations that are harder to spy upon.

In the Air Force world we have a sayin...it takes a college education to design and fly a jet, but a high school degree to fix and maintain it.

And any of us grease monkeys could learn to fly.....with enough money

Yessir.

I see it over and over again in my work too.

Constantly arguing with CAD Engineers that have never been to a jobsite, but they'll tell you how to build it...

Some of the stupidest people I've ever met, had the highest IQs...

Nice.

That should earn you some Social Credit Points, at least.

The cubicle vs real world. lol

How sweet it would be to involve a few real world peeps in the test/fit stage.

Never have understood folks' needs for movies.
Well , other than their need to escape their reality on a constant basis.
Pitiful.

Amen. Actors, sportsmen and dancers.
