Stuff Has Caught ‘Jacindavirus’

The BFD

The test results are in; Stuff has Jacindavirus…it’s dangerous.

Dominion Post, Friday 13th March, 2020. Luke Malpass, Political Editor:

Trump Bad Man, very bad. Jacinda good.“Coronavirus: The day Trump discovered coronavirus, and screwed the global economy”

“So, Donald Trump, under all sorts of pressure in the United States over his handling of Coronavirus, has suddenly turned around and banned all travel of non-US residents from Europe to the United States.
Short of shutting all US borders and ports, this was the worst thing the US president could have done. Up until now Covid-19 look like something that would herald a downturn, but that public health interventions would get on top of.”

Stupid Trump; should have followed glorious leader’s low energy, low priority, have a lie-down example: “the continued low-key approach has been in keeping with the national character.” All praise the “Fisherman’s Friend”. She is us. Amen.

Four days later: mini-Molotov from Morrinsville, having tossed a blazing cocktail of restrictions at the parched $16 billion industry, burns NZ tourism to the ground, also entirely in keeping with the national character.

I suppose I could be accused of anthropomorphism, but what I like about having a pet is it won’t criticise me or be sarcastic. No matter how grotesque or smelly I am first thing in the morning, my pet accepts me as I am, and I don’t have to put on airs and graces, or clean pants.
