Besides the sickness, death, and unemployment. The tv commercials are the next worst, right?

they just went from "buy a Toyota" to "these are difficult times, so buy a Toyota"

uh oh, that last one was just me paraphrasing a meme I saw.

internet police please don't go all Rodney King on me for that one.

Saw a nutrisystem one targeted at people who are afraid to leave rather than people wanting to loose weight.

Still the worst are montages of celebrities telling me we'll get through this together.

yeah, I dunno how much faith I have in Neon Deion as a pandemic expert.

But....he promised.

Commercials?

The ones where the ad runs as it would have 6 months ago, and then they tack on "Astra Zeneca salutes our nation's first-responders" to the end.

Also, I suppose I've got purgatory time coming for thinking that I'm really over the zoom-chorus renditions of "Wonderful World", "You've got a friend", etc.

I would like to say I'm free of live tv, but not quite.

These are awful.

Speaking of zoom. The delay on every news show interview is annoying. Everyone interrupting and talking over each other.

"No, you go ahead." Should be a drinking game.

go head and talk or go ahead and drink?

First thing I thought when I watched that PSA was that Deion shouldn't be making such a public promise that he can't keep.

In the past 48 hours I learned there were 3 people I knew who died of/from/with Covid-19 in the past few days.

Deion broke his promise to them.
