Neo called the government of NY to make sure he followed the proper guidelines and would not be taking extra risks. He is being considerate of those around him and taking precautions. He can correct me if I’m wrong, but he isn’t going out maskless to bars or out to eat 6 times in three days. I have another friend who ran into them while at the bar on Saturday night, now she’s being tested as well. Who knows how many they infected. Did people get a little too complacent down here after being open since May first? Maybe. But I think everyone can understand the desire to return to normalcy. Yes, that is why people are visiting. Yes, I understand it sucks you can’t do things where you are. But people traveling from hot spots to open places are the problem. There’s a way to travel that’s respectful, considerate, and limits the spread. That has not been the case down here. It’s frustrating because of the way certain states have been portrayed in the media, and while I try not to look, the comment sections of various websites. I’m fairly certain that Fauci said we had handled it great as recently as six or so weeks ago. I’m frustrated. There isn’t much else to say. I haven’t taken this as seriously as many on here, but I have followed my local and state guidelines and have been respectful and courtesy to those around me. I’m hoping to stay asymptomatic. I will quarantine either way. But *****, I know you can understand my frustration.

A friends roommate invited her friends down from NY. One of them brought it down and now not only is her whole household infected, my group of friends are also infected from a kayak trip we had taken while we were in town. I was never within more than six feet of the NYers and even then it was very limited and outdoors. I will continue to believe it’s clowns from infected states bringing the virus to South Carolina until I am proven otherwise. All anecdotal evidence points to this being the case. It’s crazy how everything was fine until all the out-of-towners started showing up. Just wish I had re-upped on the Devil’s Lettuce before testing positive...here’s to having a reserve of wine and Jameson.

One person made a joke. Nobody here is doubting you.

We’ve been open here in SC since May 1 I believe. Everything is honky-dory during the week at stores and restaurants/bars. Then, come the weekend, flocks of folks from highly infected northern states come down to enjoy our privilege. This has been going on since Memorial Day weekend. I’ve never seen things so busy over the weekends. Anecdotal but the majority of folks I’ve been speaking to are from out of state trying to have a good time. I’m not surprised to see us having more cases, and I’m excited to spread it back throughout the country when we’re locked down but NY isn’t because “they followed the rules.” At the end of the day, it’s just the fault of the dumb southerns anyway.

I simply do not care anymore.

The good ol’ third down arm punt. I would like to see more of this from the Bills.

Saw one on the Angel fish as well. About a month ago I spent a few hours watching videos on invasive pythons in the Everglades. Interesting stuff.

Leon Bridges is an absolute treasure. Certainly not what I was expecting when you said local act and it does not surprise me it was at full capacity. He’s an amazing vocalist.

You hit the nail on the head with this. Nothing about out healthcare marketplace is pro-buyer and it ought to be.

If Covid has taught me one thing it’s that I don’t need the Sabres. If Larsson gets $3.1 I’ll stop being a fan.

I’m inclined to agree, but for this exercise I have been taking prime to mean highest point of their career and right now Campbell’s high is higher than Dahlin’s.

Tough one for me but I picked Campbell. Hopefully someday it was be Dahlin, but right now Soupy gets the nod. He’s a better defenseman than either and solid offensively.

Thanks. Have they gone into whether it was for career or life opportunity reasons? That latter interests me.

Maybe I’m just naive to professional hockey at large but I’m surprised this isn’t something that’s heard more often. Why wouldn’t you want to go live a few years in Europe? I know I tried to re-enlist in Germany.

Like in the graph directly above for a ten year period showing California lost more personal income than any other state but New York? Seriously, just google it. No need to take my word when there’s hard, concrete evidence.

It doesn’t, things went a little tangential between Robert Kraft and their new kicker. Mods are free to move whatever.

uhhh...they have. I don’t know why so many are taking this as if it’s my opinion when it’s a pretty easily verifiable fact.

I’m not sure what you’re implying here. I left NY, and won’t return to NY, because the taxation is ridiculous. People leaving high tax states for low tax states isn’t an opinion, it’s a fact. I added the below picture, but if you look at the most recent data it’s even more extreme. Not to mention a simple google search would have shown you it most certainly is a tax thing.

FTFY. It’s not a Rust Belt issue, it’s a tax thing.

And Trump passed a massive criminal justice reform bill with the help of...Kim Kardashian and Kanye West. These issues tend to only be black and white when they are made out to be. To paraphrase Charles Koch “there’s always something I can agree on with anyone.” However, you are most certainly right HOV and Queen Bey find themselves on the left side of things.

Robert Kraft is a pretty prominent Donald Trump supporter. Or at least he was last time I checked.

Is this because he has a 3%er tattoo? Because they’re not a white supremacy group. Terribly informed about the history of our founding? Yes. Vehemently anti-government? Yes. Some racist supporters? Yes. However, white supremacy group they are not.

BOGO sixers of Lenny’s Summer Shandy at Publix. 12 beers for $6.99 plus tax.

I mentioned it up-thread that I was closing in on a bonus and I’ve gotta share somewhere that I JUST HIT IT! I know it’s not very related to the topic at hand but I’m very happy right now. I’ve been busting my ass since working from home and it’s good to see it paying off.

You’re not wrong. But one you have much more choice over.
