[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I personally found it interesting how you couldn’t transmit covid on a plane as long as you were eating, and you couldn’t transmit or catch covid on a plane as long as everyone took their masks off and ate at the same time.[/quote]
The two covid "rules" that made it clear just how the people in charge were making it up as they went along:

1) We went down to Mexico for vacation, and were technically required to provide negative text results before getting on a plane back to DC. A nurse came from some local clinic the resort, and asked us if we actually wanted her to test or, or just provide a document saying we tested negative. We told her to just write that we were negative, paid the $50 and went on our merry way.

2) Flying back from spring break in Florida, the flight attendant said I needed to put my mask back on since I had finished my drink. I asked her if I could just buy another drink and keep my mask off, and she said yes, so I spent the whole flight back maskless while drinking my beers.

It was all such a joke. [/quote]

You are too stupid to realize that this didn't make it a joke.  It's just multiple examples of people ignoring rules because they don't care and are a-hats.  This is why we can't have nice things in this country.  Everyone just does what they feel and rationalizes it.

You suck[/quote]
I guess you don't understand that many of the "rules" were simply window-dressing designed to make credulous people like you believe the government was doing something. If international or domestic travel is really so dangerous in a pandemic, then shut it down for the duration, rather than enacting nonsensical rules that people can just ignore. Dumb, pointless rules erode trust in government when it comes to following useful rules.

And, no, I don't care to follow stupid, nonsensical rules. [/quote]

You know nothing about what I did or didn't do.  I understand perfectly that some of the rules might have worked and some might not have, but I am not so arrogant as to assume that I ALWAYS know ahead of time which is which.  I gather information and try to make measured decisions. People like you called everything "window dressing" because you didn't want to be inconvenienced.

And it still stands that both of your examples show nothing other than selfish people flouting rules but give no real evidence as to whether the rules were worthwhile or not.  That was my point.  But, of course, you missed it.

And someone like you would have had an aneurism if they had just gone so far as to shut down air travel.  OMG.

You truly suck.  [/quote]
Ah, another DC area rules-following fanatic. I know your type. Maybe you were the person who made hissing noises at me and my kids because we never wore masks outside at the park. This area seems to attract a lot of people like you.

Look, I get it that you're deep in your personal sunk cost fallacy, where you need to believe that the efforts you made and sacrifices you endured were somehow worth it. Most people who get conned are ashamed to admit it. [/quote]

Nope. Not that kind of person and never did any of that.  You have to make up stories about other people to defend yourself.  So sad. Stop deflecting from the fact that your little anecdotes didn't mean what you think they did and that you suck.
