OT 18: Anti-Social Distancing

[Desertbreh]

I think genetics play a bigger role in this than we’ve been lead to believe. Even with all the junk food I eat in my cheat meals, running lots of that thickens my blood, and walking around well over a healthy/normal weight mine has only ever been slightly elevated.

You also have youth on your side.

I still think genetics is bigger. Buddy of mine that’s just a few years older has always had hypertension and has been on blood thinners for a good 10 years now. He’s even more active than I am, eats healthy 95% of the time, and uses way less gear than I do. He’s just on a TRT dose from his doctor.

Is this what we are calling it?

Yep. Big fan of his for as long as I can remember. He won 5 Emmie's for his work on The Andy Griffith Show.

That^^ was a funny movie.

That’s what we call it in the biz.

of y'all with these kind of connections.

Want to gay marry me once I have it so you can get it too?

You guys should come here..

Could always move to Mexico and grab their superior citizenship so you are free to move about the globe.

Dad is dual Mexican/Canadian citizen. Seriously considering using his Canadian citizenship to apply for mine up there..

I'm just hoping they're willing to take American refugees when we get to that point.

[Wocka Wocka]

I’d like to go to an Aldi’s one day. You guys make it sound awesome

They're really pretty 5/7. Good products, good prices. Cheap milk, cereal, Greek yogurt, and eggs. Lots of things from Europe like cheeses and whatnot. No frills You have to bag or box your own shit. I've been to a couple of Aldi's in Europe and they're almost identical to here, even down to the same floor tiles.

Did you know that Trader Joe's is also Aldi?

There were two others in Germany that started the original company and they eventually split into two companies over one's desire to sell cigarettes.

[Wocka Wocka]

I just grab 4-5 of them before I head out to the store and throw them in the car. Or if I'm walking I grab a couple. I don't see that as any sort of inconvenience. Could always just keep a bunch in your trunk.

We just leave a few in each car it is zero inconvenience. I don't drive much now, I mostly walk/bike/don't go many places, but I do drive to the grocery store always, can't carry groceries on a bike. So I am always in my car which always has the bags.

Same. We've each got two cooler bags that have 6 or 7 reusables in them. Takes up minimal space in the trunk.

We have banned cheap flyaway bags long ago. But now you can't use reusable bags because of the 'Vid.

I thought it was Aldi and Lidl IIRC

EDIT: You are right. But that is in North America only

Our one grocery store here started putting all their curbside pickup orders in nice reusable bags.

We’ve got so many now.

Correct.

They split into Aldi Nord and Aldi Sud.

Fucking co-worker tested positive and his locker is 6 feet from me. I should be fine though. That makes 3 out of 600+ employees.

The staters here just stopped charging for the thicc plastic bags. I've heard some places going back to the shitty bags.

That’s stupid.

Here most places ask you to bag if you bring your own. That’s fine. I usually do anyway.

Trader Joe they don’t let you bring your reusable in the store. You want to use them you pay for all your stuff loose and then bag it in the parking lot where they have some tables and an EZ Up tent. It works.

We went to TJ's a few days ago. Standing in line to get in, there was an old lady in front of us with a reusable bag. She was told that she couldn't use her reusable bag, and full on ensued. "First masks, now this?!? What is this world coming to?!? WHAT DOES MY BAG HURT" When the TJ's employee didn't budge and instructed the lady to put the bag in her car or on the bottom of the shopping cart, she suddenly expressed all this pain in difficulty bending over to put the bag on the bottom of the cart. Huffing and puffing, wincing, just a general show. She finally goes in, and the lady tells us that we have to wait for two people to come out because there's two of us, I informed the wife that I'd wait in the car to avoid the inside.

That old lady needs to get the virus so she knows what real pain is. It's incredible to me how old people...the people at highest risk of issues for this...are treating precautions as such an inconvenience. Go die then if it's so hard to put on a mask or not use your reusable bag.

Not being able to use a reusable bag is IMO.
