That’s how kids refer to the COVID virus.

I do so love the British sense of humour.

Hang on, think I’m just in the Boomer age group myself- cheeky little fuckers!

It's not really looking boomers in big numbers though, it's technically the silent generation born before the war who's the brunt of the numbers.

I don't think this is funny. This is people's parents and grandparents. I do understand that humour has to be found sometimes, How however this is a horrific virus that kills people in an horrific way it's not funny.

I'm sorry but I will not find humour Or think it It's funny or appropriate to make light out of people's deaths. It's a disgusting attitude and part of the reason why this virus is spreading because people aren't taking it seriously.

I just find it really offensive We've lost people to this virus and love people who have lost parents. I would say was graveyard Humour if it wasn't for the fact the very people that have this attitude are the very people that are probably are helping to spread the virus by not sticking to the rules.

In some ways I would tend to agree...but I've seen some of the posters on this thread making a joke. And they are the posters who like myself take this very seriously. It's just letting of a little steam in a way

Humour in any form Is a way to some of hiding their fear towards what they are fearful of. It shows its light in many occupations. Its a way of dealing with horror. Triage. Death etc etc. People who laugh and joke should not mean what they are saying because that would be offensive perhaps and upsetting to some, but a way of dealing with something they are fearful of in the hear and now.

Just because you find it funny does not mean you dont take it serious,if one of my kids or grankids had said it to me i would have laughed.

Sorry I don't see the correlation that people on here who can recognise that some will put labels on even something as bad as this are not sticking to the rules..

Its clearly not to your taste and tbh finding humour in a general sense is not the same as individuals laughing as a funeral cortege passes.

I think in some ways people will go two ways with this, be overwhelmed or find humour in even the darkest times which might for them be part of getting through it..

Such humour in dark times is a common occurrence for anyone who works in many of the services who deal with the bad things in every day life let alone such times as this, it doesn't mean they don't care or are less than professional in what they do..

Actually you accused those who find humour in the situation as being responsible for the spread.

People on here slagging kids humour off as poor taste is funny in itself. Makes you wander how wonderful each and everyone of them were as kids themselves. Probably never watched a comedian, as all comics take the piss out of something thatll upset someone. Lighten up folks, its kids.

Thank you and I do understand that I just gave my reasons as to why I don't find it funny. I haven't said that nobody else should I just don't understand that kind of humour.

Because we have lost people to this it just feels really personal. I guess it's just still a bit raw.

come on blaming the young no there the very people stacking shelves working in factories and hospitals like the student who volunteered to help out hospitals in there time of need if anyone they have a right to find humour in a situation where the world has been turned upside down and had the fun drained from it in the name of propping up a nation blaming people for getting sick and spreading illness is wrong did people blame people in the 80s for getting sick and dying of aids no they funded the life out of it bombarded tv with education just like now and yes i say that as someone directly effected by it my best oldest friend since nursery died of it blame is not the way the way people get sick hell schools are covid secure yet 4 days after they went back i was hit with a cold i hate that people are blaming the young when generally there working in the most dangerous conditions

Men going over the top in WW1 were known to crack jokes right up until they put a foot on the first rung of the ladder.

It's how different people deal with different circumstance. Despite having one in the firing line as it were I still find it quite ironic that if this whole planet ceased to exist in 1 minute then to the Universe it would be as important as one cell dying in your body, probably less important tbh.

Yet here we are a few of the 7.4 billion on the planet talking nay arguing like it was all so blooming important..

Perspective is such a funny thing really & everyone's is different.

"I don't think this is funny. This is people's parents and grandparents. I do understand that humour has to be found sometimes, How however this is a horrific virus that kills people in an horrific way it's not funny. well of course the virus is not funny but you do need to keep a sense of humour.

I think it definitely comes under the category of graveyard humour.

I just find it really offensive We've lost people to this virus and love people who have lost parents. I would say was graveyard Humour if it wasn't for the fact the very people that have this attitude are the very people that are probably are helping to spread the virus by not sticking to the rules. come on blaming the young no there the very people stacking shelves working in factories and hospitals like the student who volunteered to help out hospitals in there time of need if anyone they have a right to find humour in a situation where the world has been turned upside down and had the fun drained from it in the name of propping up a nation blaming people for getting sick and spreading illness is wrong did people blame people in the 80s for getting sick and dying of aids no they funded the life out of it bombarded tv with education just like now and yes i say that as someone directly effected by it my best oldest friend since nursery died of it blame is not the way the way people get sick hell schools are covid secure yet 4 days after they went back i was hit with a cold i hate that people are blaming the young when generally there working in the most dangerous conditions"

I think you need to read what I wrote again at no point have I put an age limit on this and I did not suggest it was young people.

Then why quote my post because age wasn't mentioned.

And I said no such thing. I suggested that people are who not taking this seriously are possibly spreading it by not following the rules.
