Omicron new variant - interesting anagram

[TheEleventhMonth]

Anagram of Omicron is "moronic"

Anyone else picked up on this?

Quite unfortunate really.

Yes! I noticed lol

Eh? It's also a Greek letter, just like Alpha and Delta. Why do you think it's interesting?

Blame the Greeks.

Is this some strange sort of conspiracy theory you are expounding ?

Sometimes a Greek letter is just a Greek letter.

Maybe it's Omigod.... no?

Oh dear.

I keep wanting to call it Omnicron.

Well someone beat you to it from yesterday, OP.
It's on a thread in the Corona virus section.

Yes it’s more nonsense meant to scare and control people.

They should have really called it the xi variant

@AmyDudley no not at all. I'm not into conspiracy or scare mongering at all. I merely spotted the anagram and thought it was interesting. @CreemeEggThief I didn't notice yesterday's OP had beaten me to it 🤷‍♀️

It's all over social media. Not witty or clever now.

the next greek letter after delta is epsilon
why didn't they use this?
perhaps it means something rude in another language!

I read that its not called nu (because that sounds too much like new) and its not called xi because that is very common surname.

PMSL a the people unable to spot something lighthearted 😂

Already had epsilon variant

Have you painstakingly thought up anagrams for all the other variants as well?

I'm not a conspiracy theorist, double jabbed and very grateful. However, i can't help thinking that whoever named it this has played right into the hands of the people who think this is all made up! Should have just give it a number?!

Why? Control people in order to do what, exactly?

Wasn’t epsilon a code word for the bad guys In Casino Royal 😂 I just watched it again this week after watching “no time to be so woke “😂
Maybe James Bond can save us all

Why?

I just don’t get it. Nor the OP. So what?

Calling it omicron/ moronic just gives the ‘research community ‘ more ammo to pedal their ideas
I was expecting it to be called Gamma

Alpha = Haalp!

That one must have come and fizzled out before Delta.

It's a pity the virus didn't play anagram games and give up at beta, and realise it was beat.

The only thing I think of is Omicron Persei 8 the home planet of Emperor Lrrr
