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

No one on planet Earth (Alien to you) knew this would go how it has. I am actually upset with Trump and how he has handled things but the truth is nobody thought GM and other companies would switch from their bottom line into panic mode to make medical supplies. Go watch some more videos of hairless cats. Oh, and your dad is tired of you drinking all the ice tea, perhaps leave some for him, while you freeload and contribute nothing but stale jokes and robotic dialogue to family dinners during this pandemic.

Anybody seeing certain people they know in a different, shittier light because of their behavior or attitude toward this thing? The people closest to me have wised up despite their initial skepticism or ignorance, but once you get outside my immediate friends & family, there are lots of people doing ridiculous things. Thankfully the increasing lockdown is minimizing it, but this virus is a great way to separate people who are dependable in a national/global crisis from people who are useless or who make the crisis worse.

Yeah one former coworker in particular keeps going on about how we're being pussies etc...

He's also one of those "but the economy" guys

not really, generally clued up people tend to behave themselves, and fuckwits commit fuckwittery.

I set myself up for that one. OOF

Honestly my Dad would probably be one of the people downplaying this and saying "but the economy" but my Mom works at CHOP which is one of the best children's hospitals in the world and takes this stuff seriously.

And luckily my Dad knows better than to piss her off

I refuse to talk to my dad about it, because I know he will just piss me off

On Friday morning I noticed we had a woodpecker in the tree out back and today there's an owl.

I've never noticed either in the city before

The coronavirus is obviously nature trying to claim back territory

I guess your dad is just not an alpha like Heretic's dad.

There have been a couple of surprisingly dumbshit dumbshits from my orbit of “buddies”, but, thankfully, it seems I’ve chosen my closest friends and acquaintances well. And some that I know only from training or playing golf have been super inspirational through all this. Donating time, delivering groceries to the at risk crowd, etc. I should be putting more effort into those relationships.

I hear Brits talk about something called 'crisps'.
Are those basically potato chips or what?

First fatality due to an asshole over reacting to not social distancing. Didn’t involve a gun. I feel like it’s not an if but a when will someone get shot for getting too close.

86 year old woman shoved and hit the back of her head, fatally, in a New York hospital for “Not staying 6 feet away” according to the aggressor, a 32 year old woman at hospital for psychiatric help.

British to American

crisps = chips
Chips = fries
Fries = fast food style fries

And then you've got those people who try and dox others.
