War Room Lounge v111: Err...I didn't mean to turn this into another thread about trouser lumber.

[Bunk Moreland]

Absolutely.

Granted, given the theme, there was no way I wasn’t going to like this movie. It’s like a reverse A Spell For Chameleon, in that it’s a magical world turned mundane by technology. And there’s a very D&D like game one of the main character plays which is basically the lore of the world, not really a fantasy. Plus that dude is an elf that drives van with a Pegasus painted on the side while blasting heavy metal. I also love the message for my two girls. I can’t say much more without giving away cool stuff, but you get the idea.

My top 5 are probably:
Onward
Aladdin (nostalgia factors in a lot)
Coco
Moana
The Jungle Book or Lilo and Stitch

No Finding Nemo?? Wtf

Just had a sobering convo with the local e-cig shop.

The business has been insane the last few years, with multiple panics over certain juices and then the gas station weed vape being blown out of proportion. Recovered each time, losing over half his sales and rebuilding. Then the tariffs (the industry is affected by these and nobody cares).

Started to pull out of that a little, then fucking Coronavirus hits and now there's just no supply for bottles and parts for e-cig rigs. Nearly every bottle that could be used for juice is being used for hand sanitizer, and what bottles there are go to the biggest companies and not the shops.

So dude is looking at going bankrupt and the only thing he can do is a Hail Mary try at getting hired on to a different line of work. Completely being fucked year after year.

Sounds like you're ready to DIY

Well, yeah.

I'm gonna miss the local shop though. I like local shops.

Lol there is company around here called GoPuff that delivers snacks, beer, household essentials sort of like a 7/11 that delivers. We noticed just as this thing took off they added a sex toys catalog and guess what's all sold out

Why the Christ are so many things called 'Gleneagles'?

Cause Glengarry and Glenross have gone out of fashion

You could try Amazon I suppose

 

[JudoThrowFiasco]

Fear not! CTV is reporting that those VERY essentially services will remain open during the shut down.

As well as vital essentials like car sales and boat repairs....

I NEED IT NOW!

I guess I shouldn't say anymore until the announcement, but this closure as is being reported, seems a little...I don't know...half assed and not as serious as they're framing it.

Is there really any business that’s not a dine in restraint, bar, or movie theater that can’t look at the list and consider themselves “essential” ?

Commute in morning didn’t have any fewer cars anyways

 

[MVelsor]

If they close the beer and liquor stores we are going to find out if the shining was a fictional tale or documentary of what will happen to father's who are forced isolated with their families

I don't drink alcohol but the silver lining of this isolation is that I'm able to work from home for the most part and since we're trying to limit the back and forth shuffling while schools are closed down, I've had my son with me basically full time the last couple of weeks. It's fucking awesome. If his mom was in the picture, then yeah it'd be pretty bad.

Why the Christ are so many things called 'Gleneagles'?

It's lazy naming, and the people that live in them are of a certain kind. Like, there's something off about them, but when they tell you live there it makes you think "oh, that makes sense".

 

[Fawlty]

It's interesting, psychologically, to realize that we, as in ourselves, are vectors. Lemme explain. Normally, we get sick and stay away from people. The desire to not infect others is directly tied to our having symptoms. This is the way it has been in our lives. It's a straightforward and logical thing. If we know a nasty bug is going around, we take care and try to avoid it, and that's enough.

That paradigm is out the window, and we have to adjust to a different response that isn't as simple and primal as we're used to. We're a danger to others, not just in danger from others. Protecting ourselves is not sufficient. In my case, I'm in a low *me* risk group for the virus, but in a high *other people's* risk group. A few days ago, as I was making my usual stop at the convenience store, I was thinking about protecting myself from this thing, which isn't a big deal. Today, I'm thinking about protecting others because I can easily pass this on without realizing it. It's a shift in thinking, and it's interesting.
