I actually don't know anymore. There is so much misinformation on the internet. What are the facts? How can we get around this? I would like to hear the ways to circumvent this bullshit.
People in my circle (Los Angeles) are all asking each other daily, "Did you get your vaccine yet?" How rude and invasive can you get? Now I could answer with a "None of your business" but that would immediately ostracize me from the neighborhood (everyone is stubbornly blind). I don't want to become the most hated man on my block. I can navigate their triggers etc. I want to say something like "I'm waiting for the animal testing first." LOL. But I can't without being countered with anger and ugliness. I thought of saying can't get one because I can go into anaphylactic shock. If they rudely press for more info I could say I had an allergic reaction with yellow jackets in my life. Could this work also to get mask and vaccine exemptions? There must be a legit way we can side-step this in some of the more tyrannical areas of the world.
When they ask you if you've had a vaccine yet, ask them if they've had a colonoscopy yet/recently. If they say yes, then start asking really personal and invasive questions about that. If they say no, ask why not? If they counter with "that's really personal" then they've opened up the conversation to have you reply with "you began the conversation with a personal health question to me, so I figured it would be OK to ask you about your asshole." See how that goes.
You could just say.. 'I've been vaccinated' without telling them it was for Polio whenyou were a kid. They'll just assume you mean the latest one.
Very true; the only problem with that is that this vax has a card people carry with them, as opposed to the polio one, so that could open someone up to being asked for their "papers." But true - I'm thinking with an Ohio brain and this guy is in L.A. - two completely different worlds. You couldn't pay me enough to go there now.
The dog ate mine, and the backup copy ended up in the wash, along with my phone.
LOL! Nice!
Trust me, we are getting out. But I have a house here and my job is here. Still, beautiful weather but the people are insufferable.
I can understand that. We are in Ohio in a suburban neighborhood, and even that is getting too much - we're looking at moving into a more rural setting. I wish you the best!
I won't lie, I was just giving advice to someone who might not feel as comfortable.
Yes. And I posted a couple days ago you can tell people you are identifying as a mask wearer.
