    A lot of younger people don't want to move too far from their source of craft beer in the inner burbs.

    Is this the same bunch of people that were told by ScoMo to "Go home" ? He could see what was about to happen. And it has.
    Maybe the Universities are as much to blame thinking of the millions of $ they would miss out on, so if that is the case they should be responsible for their upkeep, now,that they have well stuffed Bank accounts but from what I read they probably don't wish to or can't look after them. Or is it a case of "Got money get stuffed?"

    Putting the US deaths in perspective, one person died every minute last month, and it would take three days to read all their names out. Hard to imagine, We've been lucky.

    I’m pretty sure the dinosaurs died out when they stopped gathering food and started having meetings to discuss gathering food

    A bookshop is one of the only pieces of evidence we have that people are still thinking

    The second US wave is now hitting smaller, regional communities while the big urban centres are starting to get a little control over the spread.

    It's not over there by a long way.

    Let us hope there won't be any further waves in OZ, but I fear because of the selfish bastards [the me me me me crowd] attitudes, + incompetence by authorities, there will be a 3rd.

    Yes I did. I suppose that would include that lot & would say "Entitled to get the Virus because of our inconsiderate actions". Yep that about says it.

    Most of the general public have NFI!!! I had the misfortune of needing to go to the supermarket this morning. SWMBO also asked that I get the battery replaced in her watch. So with the relaxing of some restrictions in Qld, what happens?? People go nuts and forget there even is a virus.

    In my local shopping centre there is one of those eyebrow places in a small kiosk in the main thoroughfare of the centre, probably 6m^2?? Three seats all occupied, two staff and two others waiting. WTF! Nail place a bit further up the centre, no one in the manky foot bath chairs but a table about 4-5m long had 5 people getting nails done by 5 staff! WTF!

    Got my **** done and was getting out of Dodge as fast as I could, stand on the travelator down to the car park about 2m behind the person in front of me and a bloke and a shiela get on and walk right up behind me probably less than 1m! WTF!

    How do you protect youself from idiots!?!? If this is the attitude of most, and from what I saw it is, then get set for a second wave!!!

    No idea how you stop these brain dead, idjits. This group were included in my post ^^^^^^ Inconsiderate.


    I reckon the best you can hope to do apart from dropping them like a log is to politely remind them & give them the upturned Open palm sign of STOP if they get too close, as it is my guess that they simply forget where they are. But, it is not back to normal & the **** could still hit the fan even for them. Maybe just remind them of that. Offend them? Who cares? Your safety/health is paramount in this situation. With a bit of luck you will not see them again so why bother? Not your normal reaction? Probably not, or you would have done it. We do have to adjust to this virus so let the silly bastards know how you feel.

    Remember "No more Mr Nice Guy" That'll be $60 thanks. Kerchinggg.
