So the best quote I heard here was from my new friend John. Said he was in a menās bathroom when an old guy walked in. Saw all the guys in there. Says. āSo this where all the dicks hang out.ā
So I still havenāt gotten Covid. I guess itās because stand 6 feet away from everybody. They do wanna stick my hand written strangers meet me so that means I have to go straight to the bathroom wash it right afterwards. Not afraid of Covid at all but Iām try not to be stupid. When I enter places I wear my mask out of respect to them. Thatās the state of the world now.
Ok. Iām off to to get my rental car. Next stop. A camping grounds to see for Thanksgiving. Weāre having t day the safest way. Outside like the pilgrims did.
Peace out.

Joey Ingram, Doug Polk and Matt Berkey seem to have a twitter douche-off contest going.
Iām certain that tweet will age well.
This guy is just a straight up idiot

That list looks very heavy on overpriced try-hard hipster joints and real light on authentic Gullah and southern soul food.
That fits my friend. Although Iām sure heād be happy to try that stuff if someone took him there.
If you didnāt get harassed by the hospital rent-a-cops Iām going to start feeling even more personally persecuted.
I hated like 99.5% of the fruitcake I had ever tried but somehow my mother-in-law (RIP) made an edible one every year. And over time I actually looked forward to my annual piece of fruitcake, something I never would have thought was possible.
Can I get a Covid Turkey Day activity sanity check? Because of my personal bias, I donāt trust my own judgement.
The overall question is can I go to Thanksgiving get together with my friends. Itās at my buddyās house, hanging outside(San Diego weather FTW!), only need to go inside to use the restroom.
If we go, there will be 8 people in attendance, two couples and 4 single people. All ages 30-40ish. No underlying health risks. Nobody is an insane anti-masker or anything like that, these are my best friends of the past 20 years, but none of these people are taking covid as seriously as my GF and I.
Over the past 8 months, my GF and I have only hung out with people social distanced at the park or the beach, and only with a couple of people at a time. We donāt eat out, I go to the grocery store 2x month. The riskiest behavior weāve had in that time is attending George Floyd protests, and we went to an outdoor social distanced wedding with ~30 people, none of whom I ever saw without a mask on, other than the bride and groom.
- Do not go.
- Go. Youāre overthinking it. Thatās safe enough.
- Go because YOLO!

IMO - This will be slightly more dangerous than what youāve been doing, but very low risk and safer than what 95% of the rest of America will be doing.

Iād want to know a lot of detail about what the other people at the dinner have been doing for the last two weeks. If I couldnāt get that, or if I wasnāt happy with what I learned, I wouldnāt go.

Half of them work outside the home in sales jobs where they are masked up, but interacting with other people. The other WFH.
Iām not worried about the other couples thatāll be there. But my friends that are single are some how still swiping and dating on a somewhat regular basis, less than before, but stillā¦
We canāt reply to any thread because the Mods are going full Trump but thereās way too much locking of threads today

That travesty of thread with nothing but name calling and fighting and a periodic post about the military should have been locked way earlier.
The mod that locked it was the one that escalated the situation
