My Corona

*ahem*

Oh, little nCoV, nCoV,
When you gonna come infect ME, CORONA?
Ooh, you make my sinus run, my sinus run,
Caught you crossin' over the SEA, CORONA!

Never gonna stop, give it up, such a dirty crowd,
I always catch the germs that you breath from your filthy mouths,
Aye-aye-aye-aye-aye, WOOO!
My-my-my-MY CORONA!!

Come a little closer, huh, a-will ya, huh?
Close enough to cough in my FACE, CORONA!
This illness a mystery, it's killin' me,
Now I got me an acute CASE, CORONA!!

Headache never stop, and this cough, got a fever now,
CDC, they think they'll contain, but they don't know how,
SARS-SARS-SARS-SARS-SARS-SOOO!
My-my-my-MY CORONA!!

When you gonna get to me, and finish me,
Is it just a matter of TIME, CORONA?
Is this just a cold or flu, or is it you,
Or is this sickness all in my MIND, CORONA?

Never see it comin', quarantine is a great big lie,
Everyone just chill, make your peace, we all gonna die,
Die-ie-ie-ie-ie-YOOO!
My-my-my-MY CORONA!!

Is the beer brand by that name known outside the US and Mexico?

@Dan #9828206
AFAIR it is a brand of cheroots in these parts.

@Dan
Been wondering for a while how the beer company was taking having a looming global epidemic named after them. LOL

@Hinoron Hey, probably a better investment than sports stadiums! I’ll forget by next year where I saw a particular game at, but I’ll never forget the two weeks I had stuff coming out of both ends due to AOL/Verizon Super Plague.

@Hinoron
According to all the memes, I'm sure they're getting "Much stonks, wow!" because "you use the Corona to defeat the Corona!"

@Hinoron Somebody once said any publicity is good publicity.

@Dan Corona can be found in pretty much every darn pub in Europe except a certain style of central european beerstube (beer cabin) where they view anything not made in Germany/Austria/Czechoslovakia as heresy.

@fiendishrabbit I'm sure there is a special place in hell for the bastard that had the idea of making "light" beer.

@Dan BudLight or Corona, and I have to correct you. Neither of those are beers. One is a brand of bottled water and the other catpiss.

But some touristy bars in europe do serve luke warm catpiss to Americans guests.

@Dan I drank my fair share of Coronas in Japan, so... yes?

@TuxedoCartman Considering the amount of rice used to make Coors, Bud Lite, and (I'm guessing) Corona, they all would be better classified as "carbonated crappy Sake."

(Calling Sake rice wine is actually a misnomer. "Wine" is defined as an alcoholic beverage brewed from fruit sugars, while "beer" is defined as being brewed from grain starch, but not distilled. Therefore technically Sake is flat rice beer, although generally it is much higher in alcohol content than other beers.)

@Tarmaque Sake is sake. Or rather, should I say nihonshu is nihonshu. (“Sake” is the Japanese word for “alcohol.” Yes, you’re sake-splaining to someone who lived in Japan for years).

@TuxedoCartman Surprisingly, I knew that. Few other people do though so I used the term as most people use it. Have some Shōchū on me!

(I only even know what that is from watching Kiken na Aneki which I found by accident but thoroughly enjoyed.)

'@Dan' no self-respecting virus would want to be associated with Bud Light. Maybe some pathogen that evolved to live in moose piss may consider the deal.

@Dan Oh yeah it is, although i haven't seen it in a while.

Be sure to have it with Lyme...

@nully I see what you did there... Good one. And that's saying something from a person who lives near Old Lyme and knows lots of people who got bulls eyed rashes from ticks if ya know what I mean.

So they've decided to call it Covid-19.
I'm now thinking of a gang of crows.

@Epi I'm having a helluva time even typing it. I keep typing "CoRvid-19." It's driving me crazy.

@Epi Or a gang of ravens?

@Epi you do know what a gang of crows is called right? dundun duuunnnnn!!

Ok so, I'm actually only half swedish (the other being chinese) and the only plus with this is that people sit beside me on the bus/train less

@surrealtealeaf Well, the other plus is you are probably cute as a button. Although this could also be considered a minus. Depending.

@surrealtealeaf Some I guess call it fortunate, but it can also lead to unecessary fears. I too have Asian heritage (born South Korean) and I too have noticed more stares, though I try to ignore it. last time I went to Asia (Japan) was in April, long before any of this started.

great now i'm gonna be singing the weird al version all day

@SlumPrincess I sometimes have difficulty erasing "Tacky" from my brain. Now there's an ear worm.

Ah yes, we already know how this is going to play out, as written about by the renowned skáld, Minna Sundberg: https://sssscomic.com/comic.php?page=66

@wingsofwrath 9828517

Drink!

heads up lads and lasses: unless you have a weakened immune system the Corona virus would just make you feel shitty, like a cold or minor flu

@LuxVertas Pretty sure it was the same with Swineflu. Most breakouts are usually bad for the young and the old, not really so bad for everyone else.

@Sinvanor Give the person a coconut!

@LuxVertas
Well in that case... I'm doomed. My immune system sucks so I usually tend to get every disease within kilometres' reach.

@Lumpex We're all here for a good time, not a long time!

do you know what goes good with corona virus.....lyme disease....
did you ever wonder what the extra was in corona extra? now you know
I hear that Cervecería Modelo are planning to change the name of their beer due to bad publicity they're getting due to this virus outbreak... it's now going to be called ebola extra

yeah ok I'll see myself out now :P

That song has some rather questionable lyrics...
