And it was announced that no hugging was allowed. Of course most of us broke that protocol. It's hard not to when people are grieving.
shareAnd then people complain when things get worse and many fell ill and died. Sometimes people are just ridiculous.
This is why religions are created. No free thinking. You do what you're told or you'll end up in hell. People just can't be trusted with this deciding for themselves stuff.
Yes, it's the Armageddon! Don't be so hysterical.
shareIn terms of religion, it's not a question of "no free thinking" but a respect for authority and the idea that there's a force bigger than you that can punish you for your actions. But point well taken.
shareGood on you. Unless you're in a risk group, there's no reason to overreact.
shareSo true. People who aren't in a high risk group should ignore every protocol. Now, should they catch the virus and spread it to elderly and people with auto-immune issues or another non high-risk person who then passes it onto a sick or elderly relative at their house...who cares? Those old or sick people all gonna die, anyway. /S
shareUppity like always.🙄
If YOU live with someone in a high-risk group, then YOU don't go outside. Alright, dear???
But here's the thing. Some people can't stay home 24/7. Grown adults in the real world have household, monetary and legal responsibilities. Others have to work for a living and won't be able to sit this entire thing out without being a paycheck away from becoming homeless.
Remember--just because you live the carefree existence of an unemployed person who lives in his parent's basement without any familial, parental, legal, financial responsibilities that bogs everyone else down doesn't mean everyone has that luxury. You can afford to stay inside. Most people can't. One day when you reach puberty, you'll hopefully understand where others are coming from so that in a future health crises that require everyone's cooperation to keep everyone as safe as possible, you learn to become part of the solution, not the problem. You will, in other words, have learned what it means to be part of a society--and the human race.
I'm unsure of Stratego's employment status, but she is an adult woman in her 30's or 40's (sorry Strat, I couldn't remember your exact age). Just letting you know.
shareYou've got the maturity level of a 4-year old. You made a whole lot of ridiculous assumptions about me
Maybe "familial, parental, legal, financial responsibilities" are the reasons I can't just lock myself inside playing videogames all day like you expect me to do. Seems like YOU are the one who has trouble understanding others, hmmm?
So family members can't comfort each other even at a freaking funeral? Your empathy level is below zero. I'm serious here, have you ever tested yourself for Asperger's?
The thread at this link is why we should all try to do our part in "social distancing". These numbers don't include the additional people who will die from other things because there's no room in the hospitals.

Not visiting elderly or sick relatives for a while, that's just fine. All the rest is just BS. It's not much different than the common flu.
shareI guess that's one thing that's nice about the internet.
I never liked shaking hands in church to begin with, so this is a great excuse not to. Some of the things I’ve seen people do with their hands/fingers...eww! 🤢
