Patriots, rodeo fans and contestants. We are planning to rodeo Friday and Saturday and have fireworks on the 4th. However, we need your help so that we can continue to offer the great western tradition of rodeo and stand proud for our American independence. Our capacity for spectators is 2,500 and the Incident Management Team is limiting us to 250 people on almost 10 acres at an outside venue. If you are a proud American that thinks we need to have as many people be able to celebrate the USA freedom and all it stands for, please reach out to these people and ask them to open the gates to more freedom loving Americans to rodeo and salute our freedom...
The incident response team said that they will allow it as long as we stop at 250, if we hit 251, they will shut it down and not allow fireworks. Ask each of them to be strong Americans and allow more people in to celebrate UNITED STATES OF AMERICA and western way of life. Personal responsibilty is an key part of Americans.
The word for this sort of thing - which is happening all-the-fuck over the place - is insane.ousdahl wrote: ↑Thu Jul 02, 2020 10:22 am http://www.granbyrodeo.com/

Insane is that kids in Alabama are having COVID parties, inviting people who specifically know they have coronavirus, with the "winner" (the first new person to test positive after contracting the virus) winning the pot of money made up of the door fees to enter.jfish26 wrote: ↑Thu Jul 02, 2020 10:56 amThe word for this sort of thing - which is happening all-the-fuck over the place - is insane.ousdahl wrote: ↑Thu Jul 02, 2020 10:22 am http://www.granbyrodeo.com/

Wait, what?
Yeah I’m gonna grill out and have all these chicks from work and their boyfriends over.
Wait, what? You do realize there’s a pandemic still going on and only getting worse, right? And where’s the fun of inviting over a bunch of chicks and their boyfriends? Are any of them single?
Who cares about the pandemic? I see these chicks every day. And no, they all have boyfriends.
Sure you see them every day, but you just see them in passing while wearing masks and working in separate rooms. Do you share a big communal bowl of tater salad with them and their boyfriends every day too? Where’s their boyfriends work and stuff, anyway?
I dunno, actually. And they might invite their roommates and their roommate’s boyfriends too.
Holy balls dude! I dunno which makes me more uncomfortable: sharing my home and my dinner with a bunch of people I don’t know during a pandemic, or being mutual third wheel with you while we have to entertain a bunch of chicks AND THEIR BOYFRIENDS. I mean I’d be slightly braver risking it if it was a bunch of single chicks, but seriously bro? Besides, I was gonna go fishing tonight either way.
(Am I being unreasonable or is beav?)
Individually, yes. But where there is no difference is that both the gravely ill and the asymptomatic can pass it along to others.HouseDivided wrote: ↑Wed Jun 24, 2020 2:43 pmI thought this was a pretty measured, logical examination of the numbers. There is a difference between testing positive and being ill; there is a difference between being mildly symptomatic and gravely ill; there is a difference between a person younger than 60 being ill and one over 60 being ill.

As a whole he’s good on a roommate level. He just needs to up his wingman game.twocoach wrote: ↑Thu Jul 02, 2020 11:36 amFuck. That.ousdahl wrote: ↑Sat Jun 27, 2020 8:25 am so last night right as I’m about to go to bed, drunk beaver declares, “I’m gonna have a dinner party tomorrow night!”

Seriously, man. You need to get a different roommate.
We are sure reaping what we've sown, from a rejection-of-science and selfishness standpoint.twocoach wrote: ↑Thu Jul 02, 2020 11:38 amIndividually, yes.

All this proves is that young people are going out and getting COVID now. It doesn't stop there. Now those young kids pass it on to older people who either avoided originally or whose antibody counts are now too low to fight off the virus. Initial studies are coming out now that antibody counts are declining quickly over a 2-3 month time. If that's really the case then the whole "once you have it and survive it then you're immune" assumption goes out the window.
The only group of people we have had at our house was for a birthday party for my 7 year old. My parents, my mother in law and my wife's sister/husband/kid and we just did everything outside and spread out on our patio. Lucked out with great weather so it was really nice.pdub wrote: ↑Thu Jul 02, 2020 11:48 am There's risk in having a group of 10 or fewer over for a party but there comes a point where you have to make those decisions on your own.
I've had a couple small gatherings like that during this pandemic with friends and family.
I don't feel scared/bad/guilty.

I am nowhere close to having groups inside my house.
