And They Walk Around With No Care in the World - Mask Up People


And like the earlier piece, my rant today is about this damn pandemic, and the lives Covid has taken.

My rant.

Impose Fines

People are still moving around without masks, can you freaking believe that? Amidst cries for help, Covidiots remain on point with their lack of concern. Like I had said before if these fools don’t give a damn about their health, the rest of us do. I believe strict fines should be imposed on anyone who leaves their homes or offices without a mask. Even if they are just going outside their gates to buy veggies from the vendor. Strict policing even in the smallest of lanes is what will keep us relatively safe. In my opinion.

Mask Up, Already!

Take this example, a woman who was hospitalized for ten days was seen walking her dogs after just two days of returning home. She had a mask on - to cover her chin! She kept coughing outside with no concern about the spores she was spreading. Ultimately, a neighbor and her family contracted Covid - they are suffering. Talk about a lack of concern for another human. And based on the news, animals are supposedly getting the freaking virus and if her dogs contracted it, is anyone safe?  She takes them out for their daily walk, they crap all over the place and she coughs without a mask. Seriously, what the ...?

And while I go on with this, as I looked out of my window yesterday - I see a young kid on his bike having a merry time cycling. It was a welcome change, but there is a reason for the lock down you know kid, I said. His mask was on his head! Guess his parents needed some peace. Or he managed to get out while they were busy. Or whatever, but there is a pandemic, and the virus is spreading like crazy! People need to get real. People need to get serious.

The Things Some Do For Love

Now listen to this. An elderly man contracted the virus about a week ago, to the dismay of his wife and family. Neither of the two liked wearing masks. Like everyone does! Being a loyal and stupid wife, she did not quarantine herself, she slept on the same bed. They are both hospitalized now and her oxygen levels are bad. She managed to get a bed and treatment despite her stupidity. Others are desperate to get oxygen even a bed, so many have died! Her excuse for not wanting to quarantine – we never slept apart, ever. I get the romance and love bit, but it is people like this with immense stupidity who spread the muck!

Here is another case of abject stupidity. A 20 something person decided to do something for a friend who contracted the virus. He rounded a group of buddies and went out searching for a hospital, a bed, oxygen. They wanted to help their friend. I get that helping someone is of paramount importance. However, when you have elderly parents at home and you venture out to help others, is that idiocy or what? And when you know that there is a lock down and a pandemic. There are fools everywhere.

I Conclude

A lock down is not everyone’s cuppa. It is certainly not a suitable option for me. It is also very difficult for many who rely on their daily bread to make ends meet. The circus seems to have come to town with clowns playing the fool. No matter how much sense you try to din into their heads, not many listen or see reason. Death is the final straw. And, if Covidiots from every walk of life don’t understand this, we are going to be seriously compromised for a long long time.

In the Bloghouse

Pssssssssst I have a secret that I wanna share with you… I have been diagnosed with an illness called FIMS aka Foot In Mouth Syndrome. I’ve tried many times to get over this, with mind-over-matter techniques, herbal remedies and even self awareness classes online, but to no avail. Trying to soothe a friend who was dumped by some loser dude I listened to her rant and rave about his meanness for some time and then advised her with “forget him, there are many more fish in the sea.” Needless to say that was FIMS playing havoc again which nearly earned me a black eye! All she needed was some hand holding during this period and I advocated the “move on” mantra. Since this has proven time and again to be the bane of my existence, I have decided to do something and get this out of my system ASAP. The first step that I’m going to do is curb my enthusiasm about juicy news that I hear and refrain from spilling the beans to the person being gossiped about! Crappy feeling, but I have to tr...

Can You Chill Out with Your Mom? Can You Add Her To Your Facebook List of Friends?

Whoever said that you couldn’t be friends with your Mom is probably thinking old school mother. I am certainly no teenager, neither am I in my 20’s but getting closer to dotage (uh uh). Over the years, however, I noticed that my Mom was one of the coolest Mom’s in school, college, while I worked, in between relationships and when my marital cord snapped. Let me let on how cool she was and has been through the years. When I had my first crush – she was very disappointed, and rightly so, though at the time I was angry that my secret was out. Here was her youngest with a boyfriend, and in her teens! It was hard for her to digest this since none of the older siblings went down this road. When she found out, all hell broke loose, she screamed at me, stopped me from going out, but she also stood by me. The boyfriend went away as did the friends’ circle. She never left my side, and held me while I sobbed away because he was my one true love (at the time). Ah, the throes of the first dabble...

Narrow Path

When I look at your arms on the cross stretched wide Your eyes filled with love encouraging us to drop the divide But no matter which way we trudge You love everyone without even the slightest grudge. Temptations all around enticing us with its wares How do we ignore these pangs and stop its glares? Many ridicule us because of the road we follow Help us set an example and travel the path of straight and narrow.

Doctor Hungry

I have been the route meeting with so many quacks that I am fatigued at the way some doctors/specialists don’t think twice about ripping patients off. Having said that however, I would like to point out that there are so many earnest doctors who go the mile and are an honor to their profession. This post is not about the earnest doctors, but the rip offs. Sometime ago I sought the professional expertise of a renowned specialist who had an entourage to handle her every whim and fancy. I paid to consult her but was tossed aside to meet her intern! Being ill and hazy, I had no say in the matter but this left me extremely annoyed that I had to stiff up a large bill… for what? With irate friends, colleagues and relatives who have been shortchanged by a few quacks, I have penned a couple of lines below… Doctors, physicians, radiologists, new life healers, and others we have met Treat us with disdain and mere guinea pets A pill here, blood transfusion there and scans everywhere Set...

Beginning of the End?

A short story here... Just read and let me know what you think? I haven't concluded the story just going with the flow. The erratic nature of the power supply left the entire city in the lurch and this seemed to be a frequent occurrence. In spite of pleadings to curb global warming people paid no heed to the warnings and this brought about the swarm …. The beginning was when the entire country was wiped out in darkness and stampedes all over going on well into the night. Headlights of passing vehicles were the only source of light as generators were giving way because of the scarcity of fuel available. Every living being was being held hostage because of the “no power and no water” adage. No rainfall = less electricity = no water = no produce = malnutrition. The crops were in a mess, pets were getting crazed, and livestock was dropping dead by the minute. Drought was at an all time high. Neighboring countries pitched in, but this deluge was gaining momentum across cou...
