Will say, had this been known in January, the administration’s response may have been completely different (embedded video contains the news report):
If you get the Rona, you won’t get a Bona.
Great tagline there @JohnT!
Who here is old enough to recognize
Rona bona ball a penny a pitch!
I also immediately thought of this classic redone as “Rona Bona” by somebody like Weird Al Yankovich:
We should get working on the lyrics. We can keep the “Matty told Hatty” part; it fits great already.
I feel like the administration would just file this under a sort of survival of the fittest thing. If you are strong enough, nothing will affect your alpha erection. If you lose your wood from a little virus, you are just a loser.
I would have thought that negative effect this would have been discovered a long time ago. Any percentages out there?
I thought it was my crushing dismay at the state of society causing my erectile dysfunction but maybe I just got the 'rona.
I think the word “may” is doing a lot of heavy lifting here.
I think the article “may” be clickbait.
Yes, you would think after 8+ months enough cases would be out there that we would have a bit more certainty.
Long Term effects? How would they know this??
There’s one pretty obvious way to check if an article is clickbait.
(Clickbait means the title is misleading, but the article is accurate.)
Not sure how true that is.
In my personal folk understanding of the term, “clickbait” is simply an article that delivers little value but had a title that promises more. Or more catchy.
Yes, technically the title or clickable image card is the “bait”. But it’s only after you at least skim the article, such as it may be, that you can realize you were had.
It’s just the age old “bait & switch” or the age old “big box with small contents” trick transferred to online.
Sexy title with OK factual article = “clickbait”. Ordinary title but garbage article also = “clickbait”. Either way you didn’t get what you “paid for” with the click.
The online advertising industry may have more specific terms of art, but the proles out in public don’t. Or at least this prole doesn’t.
