Maybe things have changed in the year or so since I stopped working, but if you have a delivery and the customer doesn’t come to the door within a certain amount of time, you leave with the food. When I was doing it, most of the time that was just McDonalds, and often right after I had just eaten lunch anyway.

One of my complaints about the stay at home orders is Six Flags. Other than things not being normal in general and actually worrying about getting sick and maybe dying, the main thing I miss is going to Six Flags. I don’t so much miss the rides, but I miss just going to the place a few times a week, walking around,

Salon a la Mode lady has half a million dollars now after being ordered to close when she reopened a couple of weeks early.

You forgot that maybe we could make a really good flu vaccine and take that to protect against the coronavirus.

Can’t think of any real similarities here. The Last Train does start out on a moving train, but that was less than an hour. The post apocalypse isn’t set on the train, just some people happen to be on a train are among the survivors.

In Texas also all of the chain stores with Dollar in the name.

I didn’t say anything about returning to prior wages. I’m saying by some weird fluke my husband is getting about what he was earning, and I have to think that is unusual. 15k was not part time, that's full time, so if they are getting $750 per week until July for doing nothing, good for them, they need it. I am

We are currently paying some people more. I think unemployment most have changed since we last had it, cause it seems like it used to be $300 or $400 a week, but now it’s some formula to get half a week’s pay for half a year. Only my husband is getting $125 a week from Texas, which they have said will be for 20 weeks

Not if everyone would stay home like they are supposed to. If other people took this seriously the numbers would be going down, not up. So, no, all those people would not die except someone else is cool with that so long as we can go back to getting haircuts or whatever. If you imply anything else I will dismiss and

No. Pandemic means it is on several continents, not that a bunch of people have to die, not that things can’t be done to reduce the spread, etc...

I would like to see a number of people volunteering to get it. People talking about herd immunity like it means hurry up and let the old people die, people with signs saying “I need a haircut”, people with signs saying “All businesses are essential” while standing in Country Club Plaza, etc...who are just really cool

No. He is talking about The Kid. Says so right there in the reply. 

Country Club Plaza is pretty much the definition of non essential, and I bet half of it is still open in some form. 

I am happy at least that the landlord did not get any money for cleaning the house, and perhaps she did pay someone out of her own pocket to clean the house (house was already clean but she said it needed to be done again because the renter was a nurse). And then it would have been funny if who ever she hired had

So I have a friend whose job is to find rental properties for people to stay in while their homes are being repaired from fires and tornadoes and such, so people aren't stuck in motels for months or longer.  So in the middle of a seven month rental agreement a landlord saw a renter wearing scrubs, demanded to know why

That might work if they could find some asymptomatic people. They don't even have enough tests for people with symptoms. 

It's still spreading because of a lot of people still not taking it seriously, and because it is not actually possible to stay six feet away from other people while out doing essential things like grocery shopping. Doesn't prove airborne transmission. And I've been coughing on and off since November so it may be a

Right, cause except for when I have jury duty in Dallas I generally can’t think of any busy pedestrian traffic on the streets, and even then it does not resemble anything like you would see on TV of New York. Just plenty of other crowded places to go before this happened like amusement parks and movie theaters and

Driving to work here can be ridiculous. If you don’t work at a restaurant or a gas station or a store, you probably don’t work in your actual city.

On Kinja? Don't think so. We are here for the jokes, and I just can't imagine how this one would be misinterpreted.
