Well, they can consider it, but it doesn't mean you have to BE it, or certainly succumb to being it, or LIVE it, without a fight!!
You can also be a 'number' without being part of the masses/sheep. I've always sought to divorce myself from the latter, as I've never had a 'mainstream mentality', so tend not to fit in with mindset of the masses.

You must have been an OLD school boyOriginally Posted by Marco
Lol - I was still in school in the 80s (well until 84). This was in the early 90s.
I know the prints you mean, but I don't think so. It was mostly images based on specific themes and colour schemes, working with interior designers, etc, and travelling all over the UK, I enjoyed it a lot

Yeah, 17 I think. Stayed until 6th year to do my SYS exams. Actually, on reflection, it was end of 82, not 84.
How old are you, Brian?

Excellent News for my 80-y-o old British Army mate, Chelsea. AKA Pensioner Lawrence.
Having (bravely) not payed his Poll Tax back in the Thatcher years, he has always ducked under the Radar. Never registers to Vote.
But has lately become worried about COVID-19.
Decided to get a jab. Registered with a Doctor. Within an hour they have made him an appointment.
He gets his jab at 3.15 PM next Tuesday at the old Eastney Police station in Highland Road. Now a Health centre.
Whether it will help his football team (Chelsea) remains to be seen.

No-one paid that poll tax, it was great until all those idiots went on that demo in London that turned into a riot and they brought the rates back in under different name.
If they'd just have shut up about it we'd all still be getting away with it. Talk about naïve.

Read the report, it doesn’t show the vaccine works in the general population, but with a chosen group not conducive to real world. No standard group concurrent.
Full of ifs, buts, assumptions and maybe’s.
States “peer reviewed” but no disclosure of how and by whom.
No testing protocol outlined.
If this was the whole of the study it’s so full of holes it’s unworthy.
