Been a long week for me, stressful at work. Pouring down rain all day and backyard is now a mud pit for the dog after the freeze/thaw. Between storms took her on a walk around the neighborhood to potty and get some exercise.
About 5 houses down female neighbor is unloading groceries from her car. Stop and chat for a bit and she's like "Mike hasn't been doing well. Been diagnosed with a heart condition and recently developed clots in his leg." To put into perspective, very active and fit early 60's and over the summer was rollerblading in the neighborhood. He was always walking, running or jogging and keeping fit.
I said oh no, so sorry to hear that. Any idea what is going on? She said it must be genetic but I can't figure it out as his parents lived healthy as a horse until age 93 and 96 respectively.
Putting two and two together I asked if he was vaxxed. "Oh we both have been triple vaxxed with boosters....."
I just flat out said "well there is your problem." She literally dropped her grocery bag in her driveway and went on a rage, calling me everything but a white man. "How dare you question the science" and incoherent rambling cursing after that. Mind you, cordial neighbors for years, not friends. Friendly Hi and wave here and there.
When she started cursing me I felt the anger raising inside of me and said look bitch "you demanded that I have a vax and a shot card to prove just to enter a fucking grocery store or Burger King. You demanded I wear a mask even outside or go to a car wash just to wash my vehicle. It is fair game that your husband's vax status is questioned and what you are doing to yourselves...."
She then slammed the car door, picked up her groceries and promptly told me to go fuck myself and that I am a moron and science denier.
First hand account.... 4-6% will never wake up....from their dirt nap.
I mentioned it in a reply to another thread about a week ago. Went home to California for Christmas. My Mom still lives, at age 98, in the home I grew up in. My friend’s Mom is 90 - lives 3 doors down. My friend and I go back 60 years. My first time home in 4 years (3 of that because of COVID) so I text her, “I’m home”. We always get together when I’m home. She phoned me and we have a nice chat. I asked if she could come say Hi - meet my new granddaughter and see my Mom (who, BTW, did get vaxxed) but she refused. Said maybe we could meet and “chat outside” next time we come, when the weather is nicer. She’s effing afraid to set foot in the house because hubby and I aren’t vaxxed. She also voted for Biden. ‘Nuff said. I won’t text next time I’m home.
