No, it's frozen potato enema.

The fart of someone who recovered from coronavirus is an effective prophylactic, but they must be fresh farts.
My friend's aunt's cousin's mistress works at Corona and has confirmed this.

Btw corona beer enemas make you catch the disease immediatedly. But drinking it is even worse because then you have to taste it :(

If there's one good thing about this virus, it's showing how woefully unprepared at least one country is for handling anything medical related at all, and forcing people to acknowledge that fact. If there are 2 good things, the other is that fewer people are drinking that pisswater. If you want a lager, get something Czech, or, in a pinch, Polish.

My favorite beer is Belgian. Leffé in particular, La Trappe too.  Irish beer is OK, but I prefer Belgian

Gulden Draak is the bestest Belgian beer, hands down.

In virus related news, today was a bit of a revelation on how bad this thing is impacting buisness. Company I work at is mainly exporting the products and a big portion of our international market comes from Italy. As it so happens, there's been a rather noticeable reduction in  certain orders, so much so that there's talk going around of potentially shutting down the third shift for the time being as there'd be too much production and the warehouse would be clogged up fairly quickly.

I've always found people who lick their finger before turning a page kind of disgusting, though.

I mean haven´t they read The Name of the Rose?

TBH back when I read paper I didnt understand it.

Now that you can get pretty much anything on a screen I understand it even less.

Habits that have become so ingrained that you don't even notice doing the action are kinda hard to shake, especially if you're being distracted by something as stressful as giving a public announcement on TV.

Yeah, but I keep getting papercuts on my tongue with the other method.

This is why you wear a mask.  A mask won't save you if somebody coughs in your face, but just going about your business a mask will stop you from touching your face.  Surface to mouth/nose via fingers is more likely than inhaling the virus.  I suppose a scarf would work too, it's probably a good idea to let hospitals have the actual surgical masks.  Hospitals will already be overwhelmed because we failed utterly to get ahead of the disease, and sick doctors and nurses will only exacerbate it.

As for beer, I'm a big fan of sour beer.  Victory Sour Monkey is great.  Aside from that I mostly like dark malty beers, stouts and such.  Outside of Headhunter I don't like any IPAs or similar hoppy beers.

I'm glad we're not neglecting the topic of beer. A good dwarf inserts beer at least once into every conversation, plague or no.

A 14-day quarantine with no alcohol is just asking for disaster anyways
