If you want to see Germans insulting other nations, little boys stamping their feet, or a community blindly looking at their project / they probably have an interest in it / take a look at this thread.
An endless circus from 2018

P.S. This is not an April Fools but i taken this battle with group of blind people and i want to share this with you...
It looks that am alone against of this group, and behavior of these people are simply unacceptable.
I reported few messages from this thread to moderator / insulting others/ and maybe all this thread should be reported.. but before i will do this i wanted to someone else will check it out.
Topic: [April Fools] This better not be what I think it is... (Read 3871 times)
this years' fool?
I do not see bringing a reminder and extra awareness to the contagious nature of this virus to members as a negative.
Very clever, thoughtful and interesting.
As a brand new member of this community it is though encouraging to note that even the chief can be criticized ( although on this occasion i don't feel the criticism is that useful).
Wash those hands, and consider carefully those you choose to engage with.

I am at home, I can't really go out because it was suggested to stay at home, I can't visit my parents because they are old, I am also not happy with thought "what happens to my kids if me and my wife catch it and it complicates, who the fuck will take care of them" and honestly I don't see this April fools prank as something bad.
I am not going to argue with anyone here and what someone finds funny or not.
Firstly, you are probably a fuckin liar with all your friends family who died, or your friends are jackin you. 55,000/7,500,000,000 = 0.000007 as a ratio of humans who've died to date.
Secondly, three of my four grandparents died of cancer and the fourth lost a leg to it. My mom is fighting it right now. I'm not whining and crying because someone makes a joke about cancer, and certainly not because I perceive it. As a matter of fact I am very thankful to anyone who puts effort into trying to figure out what is going on with it and bring attention to the problem because I don't trust the medical/industrial complex to do anything but make it worse cancer being an incredible cash-cow for them.
You are being a drama queen bitch and everyone can see it. You should crawl back into your safe-hole and only venture out only into the cushy safe world that the tech giants are creating for all you millennial snowflakes.
But just about the first part of your text , I think he's stated about some members of his family/relatives/friends being infected
That would make sense .

Now, I may have found this joke distasteful, but I wasn't swearing about it like you are, was I. Anyway, I'm done with this thread, welcome to my ignore list.
I fully support every conspiratard's right to make stupid jokes and to laugh at them... you can't make me laugh at it too though, and/or make me say that it's funny. It just isn't.
I didn't find this joke funny either as I have friends whose family members contacted/died from this disease.
Apparently most people on this thread find humor in replicating a disease infection online, with decorated text. While that text was also annoying I don't think that's what pissed off some people, it was that they were joking about virus. And when you're a part of the situation then things like this really punch you hard in the stomach.
These people are getting a little twitchy so-to-speak. It's understandable how they could lash out at a harmless and instructive April fools day prank and get ultra-paranoid and weird about it.
This was not an instructive april fools prank. If you read theymos' thread about this it was just a few probabilities that's all. Please step in the victims' shoes first before accusing them of being "ultra-paranoid and weird about it".

Where was the distasteful joke in all of this ??
While it's true I found the prank slightly distasteful, I was then interested to read the methodology employed in "spreading" the fake disease. As theymos said it could be used as a study of interactions of totally random people in a completely safe environment.
Read a bit through this , and I'd like to ask the people that got offended by this whole 1st of april forum virus situation.
How did it exactly offend you ? I understood the part about people close to you being infected with Covid , but I want to know how was this forum virus offensive to you ? Your family etc .
This forum infectation theymos created had more of an constructive impact intro providing a simulation of how fast the virus is actually spreading ,
I remember the text in the news part had something like " Practice social distancing " , which was a very good advice , and for people who think , " nah I can't get infected , corona ain't real etc " maybe this simulation provided some insight as to how easily this can spread .
So I ask again ? Where was the distasteful joke in all of this ?? How did it make fun of the global covid crisis we're going through ? How did it hurt , make fun , disrespect your ill wife , cousins etc.

Welcome to the internet. My advice but not in the wording I would use is:quit acting like a bitch.
Additionally:
As I was bleeding to death I looked up at the paramedic and said "Oh god don't let your ugly ass face be the last thing I see", he had a good laugh and that is how I face adversity. If you can't look death in the eye and laugh thats your own weakness.
Don't let fear rule your life, if you do then your not living, your just existing.

And not to forget this as well:
If you choose to see-as-evil acts which were clearly done in the spirit of fun & good faith, then you're creating demons for your personal living hell...Origin post of first advice seems to be missing, but somebody else quoted it first.

That confirms it; theymos apparently thinks it's funny to joke about a disease outbreak that (by my guesstimate) will probably directly kill at least a million people
If you choose to see-as-evil acts which were clearly done in the spirit of fun & good faith, then you're creating demons for your personal living hell...Well - we are talking about Fauxpup after all...
This years' April Fool's Day prank may have been in bad taste, but as theymos pointed out in his thread on the subject:
Quote
Note that I designed this "forum virus" to be easy-to-implement and interesting; my goal was not to create any sort of realistic coronavirus model. I suppose it could perhaps serve as an illustrative example of some general concepts, though, such as exponential spread.
I do recall a couple of years ago the prank was the word Bitcoin which was inverted, but otherwise was an unremarkable year.
Another year (??last year??) was a KYC prank with very dubious questions.
I imagine Theymos is reading through this thread not realizing what a complete clusterfuck an April fools prank would have become. I guess there's always next year.
A guys' gotta wonder how Thermos 'the conspiritard' feels about some gang of propagandists organizing a merit point circle-jerk to leverage his work and ideas.
My guess would be that he finds it an interesting technical challenge as he develops some workable means of developing a useful platform in a world of dedicated, and often enough state funded, 'social media hackers'.
I fully support every conspiratard's right to make stupid jokes and to laugh at them... you can't make me laugh at it too though, and/or make me say that it's funny. It just isn't.
I do not think any reasonable person was trying to do that, the quote below. Theymos is a "conspiratard"?

I do not think any reasonable person was trying to do that, the quote below. Theymos is a "conspiratard"? Not theymos... real conspiratards like BayAreaCoins and tvbcof, who got all triggered here because someone (gasp) didn't find the prank funny. It's their God-given right to be idiots.
Please understand and have some empathy for the poor souls who are under a lot of strain because their 'covid-19' hoax is falling apart at the seams.

If you're gonna go via corona, you'll most likely be heavily sedated hooked up to a machine for days or weeks before it happens. No pain or stress.
That's assuming you get a hospital bed. :/
I've said since day one - if you are going to get this virus - try to get it first, or last. You don't want to get sick now when all the supplies are gone.

I do not think any reasonable person was trying to do that, the quote below. Theymos is a "conspiratard"? If you have a wife that was in the hospital with double pneumonia and you have four cousins with it. It is and was a shitty joke.
Nobody was making a joke about you, nor your situation. That's the point.
