Dominic ArmatoI just… what the fuck has happened to people? My parents are nutjobs where COVID is concerned. The typical ultraconservative orthodoxy. But… so we haven’t had a normal visit with them since 2019. This week, they’re in town. But they’re unvaxxed, flew in yesterday, and are spending all day today with a crowd of similarly ultraconservative folks who also just flew in. We’re leaving for Japan in less than two weeks, and if one of us gets it, the whole trip is blown… (1/2)
…So I explain our situation, say we’re trying to be super careful so as not to ruin this huge vacation we’ve been planning for years, and I offer them two choices. A) They come over, take a rapid test, and assuming all’s good they come inside, chill for the evening, we’ll cook, maybe eat at an outdoor restaurant somewhere. Or B) If they don’t want to take a rapid test, we can do a brief masked visit on the back patio.
Guess which one they chose.
