Cabin fever in the forum

Sadly, outside this forum this has become a Quasimodo-like misshapen argument about 'MY CONSTITOOOSHUNAL RITES!' . As the fear has subsided the stupid has risen again, like some goofy phoenix.
It is impossible to argue that we should not be looking at getting folks back to work and the economy going as much as is safely possible. But like Jon and Aqua, I will be continuing isolation and social distancing for the foreseeable future. Contactless services will need to continue as long as there is no effective vaccine or reliable treatment. Those businesses that do not will get no dollars from my household. If I have to pay a premium price, so be it.
But to throw the barn doors wide open and say have at it will just negate the work that has been done to flatten this thing.
Just so y'all know, if I catch this and die my last wish is to nuke the hell out of China.

Personally I have no issue or difficulty living under a lockdown. I imagine it is very different for others. Just as others have very different personal risk factors regarding the virus.
The lockdown so far has had zero impact on my life.
We’re you in all cash?

Well there is that but I’ve lived through enough down cycles that I don’t worry about it, really. I mean this is the fifth?
But I was fine at 10,000 so why wouldn’t I be now?

ridiculously selfish.
Yes, obviously.
That is the story.
A million people die every week but none of the selfish virtue signals are sent because the cause of death doesn't dominate the current news cycle.

No, it's because the cause of death for everything else isn't, "someone didn't want to wear a mask/wash their hands/wait to go to the ballgame/etc"
Oh and none of those other causes of deaths are experiencing exponential growth in 2020.
Please love yourself.

Selfish.
Such blinding greed you can't even see it.

I'm not even sure what that's supposed to mean.

They're okay but when you're talking TMNT, I think we can all agree they'd be a lot cooler were they lizards instead. Turtles, by and large, can only be so cool.
