The mind boggles that seemingly smart, inquisitive people can be anti-vaccine.

I'd be lying if I said that none of the smartest people I have ever met were religious, so my mind has already been boggled.

Why?

Something wrong with not seeing the benefit outweighs the risk?

The mind boggles that so many people just do as told and never question anything.

The mind also boggles that someone vaxed would care about someone not since they are protected.

I'm sure he buys peanut butter by the 35 gallon barrel. Am I right, Drich?


Firstly, I don't buy peanut butter, I buy JIF. It is more of a worldly peanut spread labelled as peanut butter. I eat peanut butter but probably a lot less than you would expect. If it came ready to eat I would eat more. Putting it between slices of bread requires an additional store run and valuable time wasted. My dogs eat a lot more peanut butter than I do.

Then there's the more traditional genius when you start reading textbooks when you're barely out of pre-school.


My wife is the most well read person that I have met for her age. Sadly, not a genius.

I took a Covid test yesterday and am still waiting on my results. I really want to go out for a drink and hope the results come back in the next three hours.
