An odd occurrence in my return to strat

All of my strat teams have been themed around Japanese cities, a tradition I began over 10 years ago. I had been working on another team when I decided to move on from strat, and decided to revamp my draft list and use the same team now, a full decade later. The team is called Wuhan Whirlwind, which unfortunately is not exclusively a Japanese city, but a Chinese city as well, the place where COVID-19 began. I just wanted to point out that I would not have used this team name intentionally and meant no ill will, this is nothing more than a bizarre coincidence.
Aside from that, it feels good to be back and competing. I'm not sure how long I'll stick around but I'm having a great time. I hope everyone is doing well and staying safe. Best of luck in your games!

Heck, there have been much worse than that. Some that I don't even look at the results because I don't even want to have an ear worm of the team's name.

Only is one is gullible enough to believe that the virus jumped species. Since I am not in that camp, I think it is a great team name.
When I was a kid, Readers Digest had a feature, "Laughter is the best medicine." I would amend that to second best medicine, my personal favorite medicine is winning.

Are you an infectious disease specialist? I didn't think so. More like a joke of a pseudo intellectual.
Are you really that stupid and gullible? Ha ha ha ha. OMG are you stupid. No wonder you are a know nothing Libertarian, you will believe anything.

Yeah I will take the word of a kooky old Libertarian with no medical training over every infectious disease specialist in the world. Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha. Man are you stupid and gullible.
Take a look at THE DUNNING KRUGAR EFFECT, you just displayed it's definition.

Most conspiracies aren't theories, just poorly researched nonsense passed along by know nothings and pseudo intellectuals.
HEY DROID, SCIENCE DOESN'T CARE WHAT YOU BELIEVE.
What is a "pseudo intellectual" , someone like the Last Droid who has no expertise in infectious diseases yet tries to claim easily debunked nonsense.

And there goes the neighborhood to Acrimonious Clown. Again.
That's OK--the sensible people will now head back to their bunkers and AC can continue to talk to oneself.
