OT: Lock-Down

I don't know about fed up... I'm certainly tired of it. The food is a part I'm pretty unhappy about. I believe they are still providing carry out at restaurants around here. I might go for an order of fish tacos later. I really miss getting eggs for breakfast, but I suppose I could get some fast food eggs on biscuits or something. I'm getting pretty tired of my own cooking.

I don't have any idea what it's like to be without your income during this time. That has to be pretty bad. A close friend had just bought a new house and had not yet sold the old one. He blew all his cash on the down payment and is now making two mortgage payments. Fortunately he is still working, from home I think, and his wife is a teacher who is still getting paid. I don't know if housing sales is affected yet or not. I told him to get out from under the damn thing as quick as he can.

I miss seeing my 92 year old friend. But no one wants to risk giving him the disease, so we are all staying away other than the friend who brings him groceries... by leaving them on the porch.

Wow. Mark Twain would call you a pussy. So would Daniel Boone,
and Davy Crockett.


The food
is a part I'm pretty unhappy about. I believe they are still
providing carry out at restaurants around here.

I gues you just do not think things through. Do you even know what
a transmission vector is?

I might go for an
order of fish tacos later.

I guess not.

I really miss getting eggs for
breakfast,

Those 8 inch no-stick skillets are really nice. I slap down two
eggs each day, for a nice double egg sandwich or scramble 'em up.
Easy PEACEy, you're full of crap-a-neasy.

Oh, but that's right... you are unable to learn anything.
Better let minimum wage idiots with zero food handling knowledge make
stuff for you in the middle of a airborne transmissive pandemic.
What was that you said? "I don't even know why I try..."

but I suppose I could get some fast food eggs on
biscuits or something.

You really have no clue about the problem posed by prepared food,
when the preparer is not you.

I'm getting pretty tired of my own
cooking.

Buy breakfast bowls or burittos. They are cheap and cover the
'variety is the spice of life' aspect.

I don't have any idea what it's like to be without your income
during this time.

We may all find out, since billions are being fraudulently bilked
from the bill that was meant for us.

That has to be pretty bad. A close friend had
just bought a new house and had not yet sold the old one.

Damn... he's got it rough... two caves and not one single bat to
eat.

He blew
all his cash on the down payment and is now making two mortgage
payments.

If he is stupid he makes them. If he is smart, he does not and
dares the bank to do anything about it, and IF they got bailout
money, he has a case against them.


Fortunately he is still working, from home I think, and
his wife is a teacher who is still getting paid. I don't know if
housing sales is affected yet or not. I told him to get out from
under the damn thing as quick as he can.

No shit, Ricklock. What you got in that pipe, boy?
BTW, you deserved that. Because of the STUPID, UNCIVIL way you
'decide' to repsond to me.

Maybe you'll 'civil up' at some point in your life.

I miss seeing my 92 year old friend. But no one wants to risk
giving him the disease, so we are all staying away other than the
friend who brings him groceries... by leaving them on the porch.

Sorry, punk, but that doesn't qualify.

I care for a man on oxygen for years before this crisis. So I have
to go out nearly every day to the store, because they are sparsely
inventoried and I only get 3 or 3 bags of items with many from the
list missing. So I risk exposing myself and him almost every day.

By which you mean intelligent?

Cursiotr Doom doesn't like intelligent responses, so he probably means "not the one he was trolling for".

I think it is a valid question. The lock down is not easy for most. Some find it a real hardship. I agree that it is necessary, but what is wrong with discussing it? I am not really much affected compared to many. I'd like to hear what others have to say, myself.

I may feel fed up, but that doesn't mean I want to give up on defeating this virus.

And the answer is so trivial and obvious that the
question wasn't worth asking.

Especially not in what is ostensibly an electronics group.

Now there's thread drift for you, verging on being
a strawman proposition!

Since when? This group has always been about US politics - and doubly so
in an election year such at this. Electronics has nothing to do with it.

Which is worth rather more than Cursitor Doom's (which isn't
saying much).

Since it was christened sci.electronics.design

US politics does come up from time to time here. It's incidental
rather than central, though this probably isn't obvious to
Cursitor Doom, who doesn't know all that much about electronics or
science (or anything else, for that matter).

Ostensibly.

Nah. Irony should be more subtle than that.

Lame. Obvious lack of grasp of what an airborne pandemic level
viral outbreak is, much less the danger it poses.

The lock down is not easy for
most.

Lame. There are free food deliverly services in most cities. Some
even the food itself is free.

If you are talking about psychological dispair, then MAJOR LAME.
This is nothing like say... The Doner Party had to endure, or many
thousands like them back then.

> Some find it a real hardship.

None should. Unless they were so barely on the edge due to our
wondrous standard of living that they cannot even handle a single
week without going to the store to stock up. But sure, there are
lots of folks like that in the US, because despite it being such a
great nation, it also allowed some degradation and decrepitude in and
society and our standard of living has taken a hit and some did not
even notice that what once took a single income now takes two or more
to support... the average household.

I agree that it is
necessary, but what is wrong with discussing it?

The wording of the query was irresponsible, and very TrumpLike.

'fed up'?

Even calling it "lock-down" is pretty fucking lame and sounds like
a Trump supporter with jailhouse experience called it that and look
how many idiots embrace the term.

The problem is with the mindset you foment by trivializing this
outbreak, usually just like Trump, as something akin to a 'slightly
stronger flu'.

You people are idiots. Dangerous idiots. (referring to the dorks
talking about resuming as normal).

I am not really
much affected compared to many.

You were already 'affected'. We noticed. It didn't take a state
order to stay at home. You 'affected' yourself back when you thought
you were better than everyone else.

I'd like to hear what others have
to say, myself.

Funny, your responses to me tell a completely different story.

I may feel fed up, but that doesn't mean I want to give up on
defeating this virus.

Sure gave on on thinking about the way you word things.

Vincent Price was fed up too.

There doesn't seem to be any attempt, locally, to
use the current home-bound situation to actually
locate 'hotspots' and enforce a quarantine, where
justified.

I'm not sure that there is any aim to do so.

The host of 'White Coats - Black Arts', on the CBC
this Saturday, said that it looked like the intention
of the present measures was to let everyone contract
the disease, eventually.

I'm beginning to think he's right.

I seem to have been wrong about that reference. Dr Brian Goldman
was simply agreeing with the opinion of assistant M.Taylor, who
was refering to the risks of workers in patient care - not the
general population.

I suppose there's a difference.
