Fucking Whiners in Random Rants

Seeing people whine about not being able to see their families for Christmas is just the fucking most, ain’t it? These people would risk grandma’s life, risk not having all the same family members around for next Christmas, to stuff themselves with food and to worship at the temples of materialism and consumerism. And they just fucking whine about it like there aren’t over a quarter of a million American families with empty seats at their tables because of COVID-19.

They don’t think it could happen to them.

Isn’t there some football player or something who has lost like EIGHT family members to COVID? The children who have lost both parents, like one 5-year-old boy I read about. He lost both of his parents this year and just had his 5th birthday. Happy Birthday, little buddy. I know people personally who have been affected. Not blood relatives, but chosen family. Odds are, we all know someone, at least one person, who has been affected. Either they’ve gotten sick themselves and didn’t die but now have conditions they didn’t have before, or they’ve lost a family member or friend. I’m pretty sure at this point that every single community in this country has lost at least one person, you know?

But ya’ll gonna whine about Christmas, just like you whined about Thanksgiving, just like you wined about haircuts and all-you-can-eat breadsticks at the Olive Garden.

And ya’ll are gonna end up whining on GoFundMe for fucking funeral expenses in the new year, probably, because you’re too selfish and too stupid… no, you’re not stupid, you’re a willfully ignorant asshole who whines about “conflicting information” blahblahblah. There is no conflicting information.

Stay home.
Only go out for essentials.
Wash your hands, you filthy animal.
Wear a mask.
Don’t gather with people who are not a part of your household.
Not even for Christmas.
Just fucking don’t.

That’s the information. Nothing conflicting here. Don’t be a selfish prick and gather for Christmas. COVID-19 can kill anyone. You don’t need to be of a certain age or have any underlying conditions for it to kill you or leave you with life-long issues, like being on oxygen forever or having a heart attack or stroke. Just because a low number (why is any number acceptable?!) of children have died does not mean it won’t kill your child. Anyone can have it and be asymptomatic and spread it. The end. You could get COVID for Christmas, along with your entire family, and never know who started it.

I know of a local woman who went to the hospital with less severe symptoms, tested positive, and was then sent home because she wasn’t “sick enough” to admit. She died that night in her sleep when her oxygen level dropped too low.

Stay home.
Wash your hands.
Only go out when it’s essential. Have groceries delivered when you can or do curb-side pickup at Walmart.
Wear a mask.
Stay home. Please. Just stay home. Suck it up like the rest of us have to.

And stop fucking whining about it. It’s horrible. We’re all going through it. You aren’t special.
