I thought public policy is that if you're fully vaccinated, you don't have to wear a mask indoors?

Hey, when Space is ready to move on, it's time to move on!!!!

He was bitching about people not wearing masks in giant open football fields less than a month ago, but now he's ready to drink $12 pints at craft beer bars in Brooklyn, so time to move on people!!!!

The seven day average is down 65% from a month ago (probably 95%+ from a few months ago), and CDC guidance has changed in that time. You yourself were advocating for the option to go maskless if you're fully vaccinated. Are you now against vaccinated people having the option to go maskless indoors?

I still wear masks indoors.

I still wear masks indoors.

So do I, but I think the choice should be mine.

Do you also avoid eating indoors?

No, I've been supporting my local Wheaton establishments and dining indoors for months, but I don't complain about their rules they have in place.

I'm beginning to think that you were really just annoyed with your former friend, and you're blaming COVID.

And I wonder aloud why your local establishments create rules that don't follow CDC guidance.

I'm guessing the guy doesn't even like Space and they were both drug along to brunch begrudgingly by their wives who they also both don't like.

;D

If you think my wife wants to go to brunch with people she doesn't know, you don't really know my wife's level of introvertedness.

It's possible the guy doesn't like me.  He said he hasn't had a conversation with his own brother for over five years "because we had a terrible time the last time we saw them." Though he was the one who reached out to me.

And I wonder why you think that CDC edicts are binding for local municipalities and private businesses.

Were you cool with it when the governor of Florida and other Florida businesses were ignoring CDC edicts and making their own rules?

I think Florida and the like made the wrong decision, but I believe they should have the authority to do so. CDC should be (is?) in an advisory role.

Just as I have the right to bitch about their poor decision making skills. Just like I did (from afar) about Florida's bad decisions.

I don’t think you realize how you sound…

POTW

When my wife goes back to the office in July, will it become my responsibility to yell at my kid when she does stupid shit?
