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.

It Is Election Time - No Chance of Watching A Rerun For Sure

Just another day in the life of an average person who wants to watch a rerun of Friends but has to make do while flipping from NDTV, Tiranga, India Today, Times Now, Mirror Now, and the rest. I live in hope that I can watch my reruns again! Will have to wait for the 23rd! Okay, I get it, watching television is not everyone’s cuppa today, though many of us mere mortals still turn on the television to watch a program or the other, especially the news, at this point of time, with elections going full gusto. In my life, while I would love to watch reruns of old comedies, Mum watches the news. When I asked her the other day, why not watch WWF instead - I explained that it is way cooler than the mudslinging, she looked at me as if I had lost my mind. What can I say, Mother I replied. My thoughts were, aren’t we slowly losing the plot while getting drawn into debates? I avoided saying anything more, or I would have been drawn into a debate! We are gripped into this frenzy based on rhe

Remote Rehab Watchers

What really annoys the sibling, are the soaps and serials I’m hooked onto. She’s like ‘why can’t you watch something informative instead of the usual jazz’ that I (supposedly) watch. What can I say - I’m a couch potato and love the title. She waits for a while and once she notices I am away from the remote she pounces and grabs it. I was too slow for that one! I hate this situation. Makes me feel so helpless, but I have to stay put otherwise you know the drill. She’ll fight and I will retort and cold shoulder treatment for a while. The poor sucker (the remote here) will have to face the wrath. I placate myself with the ‘anyway we have another television’ so I rush towards it and see the remote in the hands of the other sibling. I never win! But I have a new idea I will hide the remotes so that they don’t put me in this situation ever again. I wait for a suitable opportunity and hide them only feel two pairs of eyes watching me (like hawks). Why people are so sexist with the

Cheating

Why do people throw good relationships for a quick roll in the hay? This practice seems to be growing and practically every second person in a committed relationship doesn’t think twice about two timing his/her partner. However, when they are “found out” these individuals don’t think twice about promising the moon and once forgiven you can be pretty sure that they are gonna do (sic) the deed again and again. I think that once they go the entire hog, they just aren’t gonna curb their enthusiasm! Cheaters know their partners will relent no matter what. They preen themselves with having “won”! However, if a person cheats on me, I would tell the jerk to beat it. Rather be single, keep your dignity intact than stick with some douche bag. Not my cuppa … What about you my lovelies?

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.

Will We Change?

The tears, sorrow and pain on His face we ignore Pretense with - that’s a picture, are you so sure? Nonchalance is the stand that we take When will we change and stop this act of fake? He was born to a simple innocent virgin called Mary And His foster father Joseph a poor carpenter Something that we could never ever do It is so difficult because we so love this zoo! At the chosen time when he gathered His disciples together to join Him By His example they embraced His commandment When questioned about this by the learned many He simply replied 'love one another' is the best of plenty. Joining the people, scholars and clergy at a general place He taught them simple parables many did not embrace The idea was to get Him out of the way To pave a road to riches and make their day. They plotted and planned and chose the easiest betrayer Who kissed Jesus his Master, The Savior Thirty pieces of silver was their solution The end result a conscience - a rope so in
