An old friend of mine back in 2003 jokingly said "SARS!" when someone sneezed or coughed on the bus and he got kicked off the bus. So no shit they are going to give you shit for making COVID jokes in 2020. SARS killed only 43 Canadians. And our culture is a lot more snowflakey 17 years later.
Noticed this in my city too. Not sure what about the LCBO would prompt jokes about the china virus. Also, I'll just go get my alcohol at the grocery store.
Coming soon: Ontario to issue licenses for telling jokes.
I'll just keep making George Floyd jokes
Can I make jokes about Covid-20? It has nothing to do with Covid-19, so it should be fine, right?
Ford's Ontario government is one new level of stupid!
Those have been up since March.
I'm fine with it. People who tell jokes to cashiers deserve hemp.
Exactly how many times do they have to fake a laugh at a dickhole holding a sixer of Corona saying that he's got the corona fever or whatever, while they're working an essential job in the middle of a pandemic, which requires them to have contact with basically every person in their area?
They were banging fucking pots and pans in my area and yelling their heads off every fucking day at 7:00 in support of nurses and care home workers but we all know who were the real heroes of the lockdown.
The least we could do is enact a policy so they don't get annoyed by fucking assholes cracking jokes to the cashier while there's a 200 meter-long line to get in outside the fucking store.
Are you even from Ontario? The lines were socially distanced and spaced 2 meters apart. 20 people were allowed in at a time, 1 person for car and half the staff immediately quit when they were declared essential. 200 m was nothing, in Toronto the line-ups were six blocks long in places.
What kind of idiot would bang pots-and-pans around in support of nurses? Every single mom that belongs to a facebook group, they got the idea after seeing them do it in Wuhan of all places (with no thought as to whether the Chinese citizens were forced to do that or not.)
The same women who decided to paint all the rocks on paths with messages of hope. The Karens.
That being said, a nice set of pots doesn't cost $500 and they won't get damaged by hitting them with a wooden spoon. Stainless steel also doesn't last a lifetime, either, no matter how good it is. Copper will last a lifetime, cast iron will last a lifetime, even aluminum will last a lifetime but stainless steel is relatively short-lived.
Nothing wrong with me bro, what's wrong with you? I was aware it was a shitpost when I saw it but I wanted to talk about the issue at hand. Stop being sensitive.
I want to chirp you about Northern BC but that's actually pretty sweet.
Money is money though, and jobs are jobs so I am where I am.
Sometimes i have to drive past Hamilton to get to somewhere good. When i smell the air there, it’s the only time i want to wear a mask ?
Actually since the "virus" is a biological weapon made in the Wuhan lab by the CCP, the proper name should be; The "CCPVirus".
