    This thread has been enlightening. I wondered if people still had huge stashes of toilet paper after buying it by the truckload earlier in the year.

    Things I wouldn't mind staying after all this is over

    Social distancing. I naturally social distance because more than likely I don't like you and I have no desire to be in close proximity to you. So having people stand farther away from me because they're scared I might kill them is very pleasant.

    Your Current Covid-Response Practises

    I had to use hand sanitizer the other day at IHOP before they would seat us. I think that's the first time I've used hand sanitizer this year, so that was different. Other than that I don't do much different than I did last year. I wear a mask where they make you wear it but places like Home...

    Memory Maker would you ?

    I wouldn't buy it and I'm not buying it for when we go next month. If you really want some pictures then just find some online and photoshop a mask on the people and then tell everyone that it's you. They'll never know.

    Disney, Fox Execs’ Pandemic Pay Cuts Reportedly Ending

    What I don't understand is why some people are so worried about how much other people are paid. Lol

    What do you call the place in your house with sink and toilet

    Yep, it's the wiz palace.

    We'll see if that's the case soon. Texas is opening for business and things are getting back to normal. So if you're right the hospitals will soon be full and if they aren't then you're wrong. The grand experiment is starting up and the results will be available shortly.

    Who has said the flu isn't bad? The flu has killed millions upon millions, yet we have tons of people here who refuse to get a flu vaccine every year. It's because we accept that some of us are going to get sick from the flu and some of us are going to die and the media doesn't play it up as...

    What we do know about the virus is that the majority of those infected have little to no symptoms and we also know the groups that are at the highest risk. If you're younger and healthy then the risk to you is extremely small. Of course there are outliers where young healthy people get extremely...

    When this is all occurring in a metroplex of over 7 million then even at the rate that they are currently estimating you should be seeing a significant amount of deaths shortly. So either we will have a huge influx of cases and deaths in the DFW area or they're going to have to reevaluate the...

    I'm sorry but I do in fact get to have the opinion that it's irrational. You don't have to agree with it and that's fine, I'm not going to argue with you about it because that's your opinion which you're also free to have. I'm not going to denigrate you if you want to wear a mask, gloves...

    I'm not demanding anything. It's not my decision for them to open or not open. I haven't spoken to a single business either way and if they open is totally up to them. If they do open then I'll go if I need/want to and that is MY only decision in the matter. Not to mention, your argument...

    You apparently live in a different reality than what it's like where I live. Here people aren't scared to go out in public and they are ready for life to get back to normal. If people choose to stay home then that's their decision but because a minority continue to have an irrational fear isn't...

    Well I was down in Frisco the other day and if there isn't a huge spike in cases and deaths in the next few weeks then you'll know how much of a scam this whole thing is. People as a whole are pretty much back to normal. I was expecting to see a lot fewer people out and a lot more masks and...

    I'm sorry you think so but it's the truth. If I wanted to stop going to work today then that's my choice. Nobody can force me to go to work. Nobody can force me to work at a certain place. I'm free to find employment somewhere else, should I choose. People ordering electronics and iphones and...

    That's nice and all but the United States isn't Germany. Germany consists of a single government while the United States consists of the federal government and 50 independent state governments. And unlike in Germany the federal government does not have absolute control over the states, which...

    It doesn't work that way. I can no more demand someone show up for work or work at a specific place than they can demand that I stay home. The waitress has just as much choice to work at the bar or not to work at the bar.

    I'm afraid the herd is going to be culled regardless of what we do. I can't envision a way of stopping it unless we could just somehow sequester people at home without any contact at all which just isn't feasible. I won't disagree that Americans have grown weak and spoiled but it doesn't just...

    Currently a treatment and/or vaccine is a pipe dream which may or may not ever materialize. It took decades to find effective treatments for HIV/AIDS. So how long does the world need to wait to resume normal life? Plus the fact that many people are beginning to realize that this thing isn't...
