    Covid time was personally great for me. Vietnam locked things down. We had food delivered. We didn’t get sick. At home with the wife and kid. Watching movies and tv. Playing games. Making the second kid. I worked from home for something like 6 to 9 months because my office is in a neighboring province and VN didn’t allow travel between provinces until a later relaxing of restrictions after vaccines became available.

    I had a serious injury that meant staying in bed most of the day for a couple of years. It sucked hard, and I did none of my hobbies, just watched all of Netflix.

    I’m mostly better now and am able to go to my job which also sucks.

    Being hit by a motor vehicle of some sort owned by a large company with deep pockets and suffering a horrific but ultimately temporary injury with absolutely no longer-term health effects that nonetheless results in a seven figure injury settlement

    We got the shutdown during COVID and I think it scared people because nobody enjoyed that. Accidentally did more to keep people invested in keeping the shitshow going than anything else.

      It was some of the best times for me. At home with the family just hanging out and not getting sick. I realize a lot of people got sick and many died.

      I feel like getting hit by a freight train would be a little too far, but like … at least my kids would get enough money to be OK?

    The problem is that these people are so far away from reality that they think this would benefit them. They have no clue how their live would really be in case of a breakdown when the four horsemen going havoc.

      Alternatively, they’re being so crushed by reality that they understand the outcome and still think it would be better.
