The idea that the golfers are still out there still spreading the love...
evilspyre
Theres always a Gary. At least they cancelled and didn't risk it.
UnceTysFeeTimesAMady
Dammit Gary! Get it together!
DrSchlepenstein
Fucking idiots.
Nate2322
I don’t see how, they canceled it as soon as someone might have had it.
IamfunatpartiesIknow
Auntie Gloria was apparently careful. It's Gary who wasn't
Calicious
Sounds like Auntie Gloria is being careful. Good on her.
Justanotherginger
Found out yesterday my husband doesn’t wear his mask at work. “We’re federal. It can’t be enforced on us.” I’m so mad.
IrrelativeTheory
Guess somebody's sleeping on the couch. That's so bad...
flamedance58
Or a hospital bed.
DrKonrad
A friend of mine attended a wedding, the groom asked everyone to get tested for Covid and come only if negative. (1/2)
DrKonrad
They celebrated the wedding all week-end. On Monday the groom received his own results, turns out he was positive... (2/2)
nickasaurusrex83
So the groom got a test at the last minute? And went ahead anyway? FFS.
DrKonrad
He got tested the Tuesday before or something, hoping to get the results in time for the wedding, but got the result only on the next Monday

How many arn't going to cancel Thanksgiving ? December is going to be brutal.
terminexTM
I mean. They cancelled the event. I wear a mask at work but I come into contact with 100 people a day. I’m probably of higher risk than 1/2

Dude riding on a golf cart (I work at a grocery store so we never stopped going)
thoushaltnotpass
Belgian here, we're not judging you because it might be us during christmas
JaseSunshine
Thanks, was about to say that.
sevendragonsandababy
"The country must re-open, but we will do it smartly..." ok so that was a fucking lie
Blightsteel101
Three people in the conversation plus the legendary Gary. A 4-person Thanksgiving wouldn't be that irresponsible.
uchihaTaker
I'll take ur turkey, don't want turkey get covid
itsahorse
Can't we just Skip One awkward dinner for one fucking year
HeyOhBotchedToe
Are we supposed to mock this? I could hope for a lot less from my family and walk away disappointed.
Tifandi
nah, Gloria did the right thing.
SouthPaw4
Would you open your other 23 new messages already!?
paranoidplatinum
My friends (3) and I are all tested and quarenteening so we can be able to do friendsgiving.
HeraldOfTheBadger
I mean golf is outside, golf cart is open air, and they quarantined for just exposure not waiting to test positive. That's careful.
ricekickJR
Where i am, its limit 5 ppl for social gathering. So, i had to kick out our cat for the mean time
idontknowwhatishouldtakeasusername
where i am, currently 10 people max but 2 households max, whatever kicks first
themonkeysgotasword
Don't want to down play. we are doing thanks giving with our American friends here in New Zealand next week. Done it for the past five years
themonkeysgotasword
And actually thankful we can just do it this year
Bukulu
Wow, talk about a bad choice. I'd chosen everyone else before my cat
Hammertulski
Yeah dude, I don't trust my neighbors to not invite my cat in and give it their covid handpats. That's just asking for trouble.
marsgoose
So yeah, they are being careful and canceled it, I don't see a problem here.
Deadlyapples666
I'd choose no thanks giving over potentially killing a friend or relative personally.

You make them a plate, drop it off and fire up a VTC. plan is still good to go.

Feels like this could happen to anyone.

I’m holding a funeral for my turkey, occupancy is 30 for funerals where I am.
gedwards11
I recommend partial cremation. In lieu of flowers, ask guests for side dishes.
P0mp0u2P1l4t3
Boo. They canceled, that is being careful
Leolol1
They’re still being upfront and intelligent with the cancellation, I wouldn’t pick this as the case to make fun of.
Lovethespam
I haven't seen my family since last Christmas because of my job :( I'm being careful, but you never know
kmikl
I mean, hubris is a thing: that said this is the right thing to do.
Mileryen
I'm 100% for masks, but you can't wear one while eating. Get tested, quarantine proactively, protect our vulnerable population.
Leolol1
Exactly, and expecting everyone to not have family dinner for 1-2 years is insane, so work around it the best you can.
AndICannotStressThisEnoughBRUH
Ummmmmm intelligent is arguable
rollerskateorgies
The point is she says "if you've been careful" and then turns out her husband was in a golf cart with a buddy.
ReaperCDN
Careful means wearing the mask, even with friends.
Leolol1
You can't wear a mask while eating though.
ReaperCDN
Its incredibly easy to get up and go eat elsewhere.
skellington01
Exactly. I’m not wearing a mask with my family, but we don’t meet if someone was in a situation that risks everybody.
palmo
But does any of your family go riding around in golf carts with people?
WoTLert
In Dutch we have a saying, "Men dempt de put als het kalf verdronken is", means 'One fills in the well after the calf has drowned', 1/2
WoTLert
basically 'too fucking little, too fucking late'. It's not like they weren't warned or anything. For *months*.
Leolol1
I disagree tbh, this has been ongoing for almost a year, people are going to go do things. They did, they fucked up, and now they're 1/2
Leolol1
doing what they need to do to deal with the consequences appropriately. 2/2

Leuk, deze vertaling kende ik niet. Die ga ik onthouden
Everywomanhasamolly
At least they are being smart in canceling. People in Utah still refusing while numbers are crazy high.
Ninjainslippers
We're gonna see a massive spike in cases in mid-December. That will be the real second wave. And that's terrifying.
IThinkYouGotAFineBrainJack
"Alrighty, food looks good this year. So, while you guys are eating, I got the funniest story for you guys..."
RePete21
Just had an unmasked retard claim they were told to quarantine after testing positive but picking up booze was more important first.

The initial spread in and from Wuhan was highly exacerbated due to the Chinese New Year holiday. They get a couple weeks off and travel 1/

Nice! isn't this the state where all the religious freaks do live?
wetfifty
No. You're thinking of the United States.
nipplepanties
Not exclusive to Utah ?
LokisSenseOfMischief
My wife and I moved out of Utah early last spring and we still see a lot of FB posts denying covid exist followed by "somehow we got covid"
MyCommentsUsuallyHaveTypos
Let nature cull the stupid, I say.

We had a sliver of hooe until the LDS church resumed in person services on Sundays, the school cases started exploding 2-3 weeks after that
mrskentrik
And it's PISSING ME OOOFFF! Working in healthcare in a SUPER republican/conservative/whatever state sucks extra hard right now.
kmikl
I need to stop for a moment as a Canadian to appreciate that healthcare work in a republican state sucks hard, normally.
kahleente
Yeah they sure are. Thanksgiving is lining up to be a mess. So about a week after Thanksgiving is prolly gonna be a dummy spike.
skumocomics
ye, I know it can be hard for people to not be together on thanksgiving :(
Knifeywifey
During a pandemic, hard things may be required of all of us.
lordsupafly
At least they'll be among the first to claim group... I mean herd immunity.

Charles Darwin would be proud.

I'm sure the lord will provide for them...

Ulthirm
You know the LDS practice that killing oneself is a really bad sin, where does the lord make that barrier?
IThinkIGotMySwaggerBack
As a member of the LDS church, this is an excellent point that needs more attention

Active Latter-Day Saint Christian (mormon) here. I'm fairly certain our doctrine teaches the Lord already has. And it's called a facemask.
mrskentrik
AMEN. I work at Jordan River Temple, and I had to point this out/soapbox about it because my ultra conservative coworkers are so 1/2
Sasurau
Or sort'em out is more likely.

I'm ashamed of my fellow Mormons.

My lapsed-Mormon wife told me “They never said anything, but I just realized they wanted Trump to win and I lost a lot of respect for them.”
Ferlin7
The church didn't, but a lot of members did.

Many LDS are (R)epublicans no matter what. My parents (R) and I are LDS, but my parents voted Hillary and Biden. I wanted Sanders both times
