Tell him to get his woman under control. Other than that nothing.

Tell him he is invited but his wife can go frick herself.

If he chooses not to attend, you understand.

“That is misuse of a government seal, so that is actually a crime to do that. It comes with it for each offense, up to a $5,000 fine or five years in prison,” said Amy Alexander, a spokesperson with the FBI Seattle field office. The seal in question is the CDC logo on the cards.

"I'm not comfortable asking people if they are vaccinated or not. I completely understand if your wife feels it is best to not come. Can you still come?"

F. Ghost them. Don't talk to them any more further. If they show up then they show up if they don't no hard feelings. You sound like a woman.


Actually, ghosting them would be exactly what a woman would do. I guess you sound like a woman.

B. Despite variants and all that, we’re in a post Covid world. asking other people to change their life because of your concerns is so 2020.

My wife is way more worried than I am, but not insane. she has more concern and I just DGAF any more. I’m vaccinated, but I’m living my life at this point. if I die, I die. but at the end of the day, she doesn’t dictate my shite.

Is it a fake card if you use a fake name?

Get one made in the name Harold Pelotas.

I would have replied that about half are likely not vaccinated. Then if pressed further, politely say that maybe his wife isn’t quite ready for this type of situation.

This is the only route to go, IMO.

It’s an unreasonable request.

As much as I hate to say this, I would not be having any b day dinner with 15 people. Covid Delta is sweeping our area in a big way wether your vaccinated or not. Therefore, this chick is off base cause Delta don’t care if ur vaccinated.

He tells me today that before they come, she wants me to survey everyone in the party on whether they've been fully vaccinated or not.
