This is correct. 

I keep hearing people say, "But nobody here is sick?!?!?!"

To which I reply, "Exactly."

It's smart to segregate the stockers from the general public.

HEB putting some hard caps on a lot of items.  (Look for this coming soon among all retailers.)  Walmart now reducing their hours from 7:30 to 11.

I like how HEB has limits on hand sanitizer.  Lulz.

We were gone for spring break. Knew we were low on TP but decided against ordering from Amazon and leaving box by front door while we were gone. I regret that now. People are idiots.

Damn those are still pretty generous caps.

I don't understand why people can't comprehend this. You wait until people are getting sick left and right and it's too late. We may already be there and don't know it yet.

It’s going to happen from the mouth breathers if the social distancing works.

We are probably already there.  We haven't had the testing capability.

Governor Polis closed all ski resorts in Colorado, essentially ending the season. That explains why Vail / Steamboat & Winter Park all closed.

It definitely sucks, but it's clearly the right thing to do. People can't be trusted to not be morons and go and be disease vectors in areas without the proper health care.

Long time lurker on my old account. Email got infected with coronavirus so I made a new one with Daddario’s tits.

Loved that era of MTV.  Tom Green, Jackass, Andy Dick?!?  The stupidity and absurdity was contained to humorous television shows, not "real life".

I have two teens, watched Jackass the movie with them this afternoon.  When the kids saw the lower res opening studio shots before the film starts they were like " is this one of your old movies with horrible special effects?"    After the opening scene and the rental car crash up derby they were laughing and like "what the hell is this?"   Me: "just wait"

i watched their reactions more than the movie....  good times!

My ER nurse friend in SA says her hospital is getting filled with people with coronavirus symptoms already. Not quite overrun yet but it’s getting there.

ORD is one of the 11 airports designated to screen incoming international passengers.

 We opted to funnel them into fewer place to spread the virus easier?

I can relate to this because we have always struggled with this in the cybersecurity industry, everything is considered an act of paranoia by outsiders and the measure of a good security program is one where major breaches are avoided. So if you are doing a good job and everything is quiet people question your budget. "Nothing bad happens, why are we spending so much money on security?" On the other side, organizations that get completely owned always throw money at the problem after the horses already left the barn but they are so fucked, it will take over a year and a shit ton of money to clean the place up.

O'Hare sucks for international arrivals on a good day but now it's one of only 13 airports designated for international arrivals which include extra screening which is a recipe for a monumental shit show

I mean when I first read about the designated airports I thought to myself: good, they probably have those airports ready for the influx. 
 

Wow. Was I a dumbass.
