Did you take precautions to isolate for the past week after being around a crowd of people, or did you share the possibility of getting sick with others who may be less ok with it?
Either way, just by being there, even before being pozzed, you contributed to the risk of spread and made your community less safe.
And in Florida, no less? I’m looking outside at a foot of snow and you’ve got 60 degree weather, but a small distanced outdoor gathering wasn’t good enough? You had to go to a fucking bar?
No you don’t get to skate with being okay with the possibility of catching it yourself. You increased community spread with reckless, selfish, unnecessary decisions.
Hope you don’t die of it, and I hope you don’t get sick enough to tie up medical resources for those who weren’t out galavanting around to bars and restaurants.
I too hope ViridianDreams feels better soon
My wife is getting the vaccine today
I love how that begins “summoned by Kirk Cameron.” Like he’s some dark magician calling on his army of wraiths to fight the state government.
It is pretty funny that this thread is like 1/2 legit COVID information, 1/4 tweets where we all laugh at the selfish people who are going to holiday gatherings or eating at restaurants, and 1/4 posts from people here who insist that they have good reasons to do those things, though.
Does that last 1/4 also include the inevitable shaming for stuff like an ICU nurse picking up a free coffee at the Starbucks drive thru?
Apparently I want to fight today. Which will inevitably end in me getting all upset and temp-banning myself from the thread for a few days. Maybe I should just skip straight to that part.
OK I’ll take my turn in the shaming booth. My boss got us Chipotle for lunch today in lieu of our Christmas Party. I’m fixing to go to the break room even though I know there’ll be like 12 people there. Fuck it, free Chipotle, I’m going in.
Pretty sure your paper mill has herd immunity by now anyway.
Thrusting a free coffee at a drive thru on you?
at the very least we have gone partial modified Chipotle herd
Qdoba herd >>> Chipotle herd. Also In N Out and Chik Fil A are overrated and Trump’s IQ was probably over 100 at one point.
where does this one fit in?
Can’t you just go in there wearing a mask, get your food, and bug out to eat elsewhere?
Oh yeah that’s definitely what I’m doing. But I can’t wait like 15 minutes because it will be gone.
Pretty mediocre. All the ones around me seem to be gone. Rubio’s definitely superior.
This place if you ever see one is the shit:
I can’t see my jimmies getting rustled about spending all of about 15 seconds to grab a burrito wearing a mask in a room with other people. I guess if someone in there was coughing without a mask, then I’d skip it.
Gonna need watev’s take before I know for sure how I feel about Keeed’s Chipotle adventure.
Can you tell I have nothing to do today and would rather fight on the internet? But the hilarious thing is whenever I pick the fight I’m the one who gets all upset at the end. It’s like a dog biting their tail until they cry in pain. Than you for coming to my self-therapy session.
So in my day to day I interact with very few people who aren’t already putting themselves at risk, ie they have made calculations about their risk of exposure that are similar to mine, but since this weekend, yeah, I’ve been isolating.
I’m open to being convinced otherwise, but my behavior really wasn’t making the community appreciably less safe in the general sense. Yes it was a selfish decision and in some theoretical sense increased the risk in the community in some minuscule increment, but South Florida has been OFB for a while and one additional person isolating is going to turn the tide. It’s not like Florida is New Zealand or Australia, or any one of the numerous other places that have (rightly) decided to collectively shutdown for everyone’s safety and have little to no community spread.
Nobody’s putting anyone at risk picking up a free coffee at a drive through. And healthcare workers know how to protect themselves better than anyone. Get a grip.
