Sugar Shack has decent donuts, though evidently they're re-branding into a vegan cafe called Elizabeth's Kitchen. Hopefully the donuts don't change because it's within walking distance of my house and my kids love them.

I don't do Twitter, Facebook or IG, but with the way WetHog pulls only the finest content for our viewing pleasure, I feel like I don't need to.

Keep up the great curation work my friend.

Oh, and Granny can putt!

It’s my pleasure.

No

 

[kicksavedave]

No

Not in a million f***ing years.

 

[AlexBrovechkin8]

Pay me $1mm and I'll think about it.

Less afraid of the big coasters than the carney death traps. I'd probably get on that. But not right after lunch.

 

[Jacoby4HOF66]

Oh the memories. RIP

So my wife just came home from the grocery store with a Prepper's wet dream. Canned goods for 6 months, TP and Paper Towels for what feels like a decade. About 12 boxes of Cheerios.

I asked her what the hell she was doing. She said "The radio just had someone on that told us to go out and stock up on everything in case the 'Coronans' come for us."

All we need now is an RV and a crossbow.

Lol might wanna have a sit down with her Dave. Communication is key to a good marriage.

Why would I wanna do that?

RIP Dana.

Why would I wanna do that?

Here is one reason.

I don't want to post this anywhere else because I don't want people to think I am not aware that this is serious but I swear this is how I feel right now:

I never watch the news because of stuff like this but you can't escape it even here with all the active threads about it.

So this is what I was smelling earlier....

Have to say every time I round 495 outer loop approaching the springfield interchange and I smell smoke I mentally prepare myself for my condo to be burning/burned down, heh.

That meme is shit.

Are coronavirus diseases equally deadly? Comparing the latest coronavirus to MERS and SARS.

While we shouldn't be cracking open each others skulls and feasting on the goo inside, it's ridiculous for people to be acting cavalier and dismissive about this, as though it's some hoax or media construct. It's not.

I always have a single question for the conspiracy theorists is: who benefits from making an outbreak like this look worse than it is?

The markets are tanking and people aren't patronizing the retail industry, so ads (i.e., where news media earns the vast majority of their money) hold far less value.

There is no rational explanation. It's just a coping mechanism.

People watch too much TV. They think if it's not the zombie apocalypse that it's not a real problem.

No one is saying this will "kill us all," but it will cause serious problems and will sicken and kill a lot of people and strain many systems. And when you overwhelm the healthcare system, you create collateral damage among people who need access to it for other reasons, such as people with chronic disease.

And people are also selfish. They're more worried about being inconvenienced than helping to protect those more vulnerable than them.
