Why we can't have nice things.
Ok folks, hold on to your hats and keep hands and feet inside at all times because we are going for a ride. Georgia and Tennessee are going to reopen their states on Friday. (Deep breath). Okay, now I don't hate this. There are excessive restrictions/unnecessary restrictions being enforced in various places and that needs to change. So let's see what they are changing in Georgia. Employees at "gyms, fitness centers, bowling alleys, body art studios," as well as "barbers, cosmetologists, hair designers, nail care artists, estheticians, their respective schools & massage therapists," will be allowed to return to work on Friday but will have to operate under restrictions. This is good. These places can operate without having large groups, limiting customers, etc. Ok, blood pressure is good so far. Moving on, On Monday, April 27, sit-down restaurants, theaters and private social clubs will be allowed to reopen. Um. No. Actually, fuck no. Resturaunts and theaters? What part of putting groups of people in the same room for extended periods of time makes sense? I mean they say there will be "sanitation and social distancing regulations" but that don't mean shit. When is the last time you walked into a restaurant and didn't walk within 6 feet of people? I mean, you can sit 6 feet apart but the waitress will be within 6 feet of everybody. We also need to factor in that people in large groups are stupid. Even if they limit customers in theaters so that there is only 10 people in the theater, the line outside will be 15 times that at best. This is why we can't have nice things. Then we have Tennessee. They are completely opening everything in 89 of 95 counties. Y'all think people in those 6 not open are gonna stay home? If you answered yes you are special kinda stupid. This is why I won't be watching the Hawkeye D line terrorizing QBs in September and that makes me sad.
Hey G, I was gonna post this under the Covidiots topic, but I'll just leave this here instead. Give it a listen if you have some time 😁
