To wonder about New World Order

I don’t understand how some people are convinced that it’s soon going to be New World Order. The corona virus was deliberate, followed by lick downs, everyone indoors etc.....means everything in place for New World Order. Well according to several friends on face book it is. Surely not.

Bloody silly hats though...

OP yabu because I have no clue what you're on about.
But I'm very glad I clicked on the thread anyway.

People said this after Princess Diana died nearly 23 years ago and after 9/11 19 years ago. I'm still Waiting!

I suppose it does seem stupid, I mean, there’s too many of us to be made to conform isn’t there.

I wouldn't mind a lick down after seeing pictures of some of the spanish army earlier

They'll never do a tune as good as Blue Monday again.

Woodlandtrain · 20/03/2020 21:21

This is the happiest thread I've seen in forever. I'm going to hear lick down instead of lock down every time now . . . Wink

How can they run about in those little shirts?

Findawaytobehappy · 20/03/2020 21:28

Casino perhaps the shirts accidentally come off during a run?

armwrestler · 20/03/2020 21:33

my god those spanish soldiers

I've been feeling really anxious all evening and that picture's fixed it immediately!

Barbararara · 20/03/2020 21:38

This is why I love MNGrin

johnwayneisbigleggy · 20/03/2020 21:57

Can we have pictures of said Spanish army please? I've missed them somehow 🤷‍♀️

johnwayneisbigleggy · 20/03/2020 21:58

@DifficultPifcultLemonDifficult - Thankyou. Good shirts, very silly hats

P1nkHeartLovesCake · 20/03/2020 22:00

John...Picture is page 1 of this thread

DifficultPifcultLemonDifficult · 20/03/2020 22:03

I genuinely never noticed the hats until now 😂😂

TheVanguardSix · 20/03/2020 22:10

Garlicsoup bruuuuhhh!
I bet he smells like your username.

greendaysayitall · 20/03/2020 22:14

Lick downs from Boris? No thanks!!

Yes my overactive imagination is telling me that all of this is a huge conspiracy. In an over populated world with too many old people and overburdened health care systems release a virus that targets the old and infirm yet inexplicably spares children.

What will be going on in the world unnoticed when we are all on lock down?

I blame my cynical, doubting ways on watching too much x-files when I was younger! Plus thinking that we are to blame for this probably makes me feel more in control of the situation!

Judashascomeintosomemoney · 20/03/2020 22:20

Woah, what’s that Spanish army guy called?
Major Distraction?

Judashascomeintosomemoney · 20/03/2020 22:22

are we agreed that he is called Terry? Not very Spanish sounding though
El Tel, I’ll think you’ll find. Wink

TheSandman · 20/03/2020 22:22

Damn! I misread the thread title and now have Blue Monday going round in my head....

Judashascomeintosomemoney · 20/03/2020 22:23

They'll never do a tune as good as Blue Monday again
Not even World In Motion? (Which is slightly ironic under the circumstances)

johnwayneisbigleggy · 20/03/2020 22:26

@p1nk - thank, ive found it now :)

johnwayneisbigleggy · 20/03/2020 22:27

*thanks even 🤦‍♀️

Vulpine · 20/03/2020 22:31

Faded red- they may be silly hats but I'd definitely be telling them they can keep them on

LonginesPrime · 20/03/2020 22:31

Don't worry, OP - it's obvious that Disney started the virus to boost sales of their new streaming service while parents are stuck at home with excruciatingly bored children.

I mean who was going to pay for Disney+ when they already have Prime and Netflix before the virus, hmm?
