Funny you should mention this.
Someone I talked to today was going to go get a test done.
I asked no free home test kits?

Silence.....

Never bothered to order one.

Or get the free masks too.


Wanted to see if I had a mask or test to give him.

Didn't have any........

We got free home test kits. The wife has used them a couple times. Just a cold. I haven't had symptoms to warrant. We have both been jabbed and double boosted. I figure that is at a minimum fiscally conservative as I haven't missed a day of work since the pandemic started.
I am not a religious man, but an old school traditional religious member of the GOP should think that God helps those who help themselves, no?

By now I figure if you're one who haven't taken advantage of the covid-19 preventive measures available.
Then so be it.
Take what you get.
You're the one wanting to be independent, so then be.

Get sick, don't come crying to me.

That sounds like you didn't even read the post that you quoted.

I read it.

Took the meaning that one be glad of and should take advantage of all of the preventive measures available. You even use religion as a supporter.

My point is I no longer have any symphony for any who have chosen to forgo the helpful measures available.

Cry when they get sick. wishing then they had taken steps to combat the infection.


In the past two weeks have personal knowledge of infected people knowingly exposing others. To then inform that they felt sick at the time of exposure, yet didn't test for some selfish reason. Only to finally get tested the very next day, when force to seek professional help when scared.
