What are you going to do when this is over?
« on: March 27, 2020, 08:31:19 AM »
Are you going to jump back into the flow of things and act like it never happened?

Are there things you miss that you're going to do? (Go out to eat? Throw a party? Head to Bars?)

Will there be any long terms changes to your habits? (Count to 20 when Washing hands, elbows instead of shaking hands?)

I'm never going to touch a doorknob with my bare hand ever again.

Actual knob door openers should be banned.

And wet markets.

I've thought about this.

I was always an avid hand washer and will continue to do so. 
I'll frequently continue to Lysol wipe down computer mouse and keyboards and doorknobs, etc, that I did not really do very often before.
Will probably bring Lysol wipes to stadiums, restaurants, etc to wipe down seating first.

I'll probably yell at sick people showing up at work to go home more so than I have in the past.

Personal hope - having to carry hand sanitizer and wipes around will allow the fanny pack to make a resurrection.

4. Go to a sporting event and enjoy a collective experience that doesn't involve fighting off a global pandemic.

If you wear the fanny pack, you also have to wear baggy shorts, black shoes and knee-high socks.

First thing I'm gonna do it head to my favorite restaurants and coffee shops and enjoy the crowds.

Kiss the nurse that just gave me a safe and effective vaccination.
I'm like a turtle, sometimes I get run over by a semi.

I think I'll classify this as "over" when myself and roughly everyone I know has been vaccinated. 

At that time, my attitude will largely be based on whether or not I'm still employed.

All of this. I'm an introvert and the lack of human interaction is starting to drive me crazy.

Don't take simple things you enjoy for granted. Appreciate get togethers with friends and co-workers. Continue to travel as much as possible.

Social distancing (and no sports) has been a bit easier for me to handle than I expected. Hobbies are replaceable.

Not the right thread, but the latest trend is to call it physical distancing, and encouraging people to social using technology, or from a safe distance..

A vaccine would be the bees knees, but at this point I'd settle for knowing the hospital has a ventilator ready for me along with a person who knows how to get me on it.

Super agreed there.  Whoever coined the phrase "social distancing" should be ashamed.  It's physical distancing.

Be social, on the phone, online, or 10 feet away.   Otherwise we're in a much bigger world of pain.

Real issue finding one that takes 3-year-olds. But was going to follow Al and stash my possessions at St. John's Northwestern.

No better time to walk down the street with your johnson swinging.  Nobody around to see it.

And remember May 1st starts outdoor fooking season at the 4never household, so if you see a bare ass in the light of the moon,don't be scared.
