That should be moved to the Crap Jokes Suppository.

The ball might go past me, but you won't.

I thought pegging was looking after porkers in Zumerset.

"Pissed off" not "pissed up" 😉

Is that it ?

Mad Nad is at it again; the Minister for Culture Media and Sport said that the Commonwealth Games in Birmingham are the biggest event in the UK since the 2012 Olympics, which has pissed off Glasgow, which hosted the Commonwealth Games in 2014.

No. What they are saying is correct, Putin's megalomania is driving Russia to restore it's Tsarist borders. The fact that Russia's military is severely underperforming won't detract from his ambition. He is getting ever closer to an impersonation of Hitler in his bunker in April 1945, ordering 'ghost' divisions around, which exist on the Heer Order of Battle, but can no longer muster a Colour Party.

When he appeared more recently in Dr Who as Donna's grandfather he wore his own Parachute Regiment badge on his character's wooly hat. As a much younger actor he was appearing in a supporting role in a production of MacBeth where real swords were being used. The actor in the title role was stabbed to death in the final fight with MacDuff.

What is the worst thing to hear in a nuclear laboratory ? "Ooops !"

Don't the Department of Transport run 3 passengerfranchises at the moment anyway ? Shows that the franchise system doesn't work.

A midget pschic escaped from Police custody. They put out a radio message "There's a small medium at large".

That is one of the most horrific videos I have ever tried to watch.

They'll be fuelling their solid fuel missiles with coal soon.

He is an overtly anti-US propagandist with a history of promoting pro-Russian stories, and among other things denies that the Chinese are oppressing the Uighurs.

I am not denying the possibility of a lab accident, I don't think we will ever know for certain, and the SCIENCE articles linked previously don't, to me, smell of a cover up.

SARS-Covid-2, whilst predominantly found in bats, has also been found in dogs, cats, pigs, mink, and ferrets, among others. Some of these are probably transmission from humans to other host species, but there is evidence for dogs acting as an intermediate host and passing it on to humans. I don't think we will ever know with absolute certainty the truth about how it moved to human hosts, lab release or market, but it certainly is not bio-engineered.

Or it was zoonotically transmitted from another species to humans. This is quite normal, as for instance influenza migrated from water fowl.

Never had you down as owning a tin foil hat.

The women's cricket team did before playing South Africa.

Nature 'created' the virus, it has been around in mammalian populations for centuries. It was not released from a laboratory.

A lot of Ukrainians did indeed welcome the Wermacht in 1941, they viewed them as liberators from the Bolshevik USSR, and some later joined the Waffen SS. ( Many others soon regretted welcoming the Germans ). However, there were also French, Dutch, Belgian, Bosnian, and many other nationalities and ethnicities in the Waffen SS, it wasn't a uniquely Ukrainian fetish. Europe at that time was rife with Facist leaning nationalist groups, we even had the Black Shirts in the UK, and these tendencies continue to this day, again not something unique to any one country. And why should the fact that Zelensky's first language is Russian be a surprise, he was born in the USSR, and spent time outside Ukraine as his father moved around various universities. He spent some of his earliest years living in Mongolia, in a Russian speaking academic community.

You need to experiment with a virus in order to develop a vaccine; some vaccinations use whole inert virions, others, like the COVID vaccine, only use a part of the virus - in this case the 'spike protein' by which the virus attaches to cell membranes. Understanding how the virus works is as important as decoding it's structure.
