Other than a mask it feels completely normal and that seems to be more window dressing that anything. More and more places don't care at all or don't care if you chin diaper it. I've been living my life as normal since like August of last year while your bars still close at dark

yeah, same here for me in Baton Rouge, Other than wearing a mask at work (well, kinda/sorta but not really if you know what I mean) and businesses where required, probably since about June or July I've pretty much lived life as I was before.

Kept my LSU tickets for football and basketball, went to most every game for each, went to Chicago twice and watched Cub games from the rooftops, eat/drink at all my favorite local bars and restaurants, went to every store I heeded something at, went on vacation in Colorado and Savannah and was able to go into any establishment I wished at both locations, I've flown commercial airlines 3 times...I could go on.

There were varying restrictions with each of these but for me I pretty much did what I wanted and went where I wanted other than wearing a mask...and even then comically as soon as I sit down at any bar or restaurant or am actively eating at any sporting event I can take that mask off!!

You and the other Branch Covidians will have to accept it and find something else to fill the gaping void in your life that doesn’t involve inconveniencing the rest of us.

So wearing a mask to slow the spread of a deadly virus is an “inconvenience”?
