Muh Muh Muh My Corona (virus)

Somebody's gonna get the shot, take their F-150 out on the track, and fucking die a fiery death. I'm there for it.

 

It will work for some of those dipsticks.

 

And a pleasant good evening to you too.

 

Oh come on. It would be a terrible tragedy. But it would also be very funny. Two sides of the same coin.

 

The Talladega folks do something similar from time to time for donations to storm relief after a big tornado or hurricane, so this ain’t their first rodeo. It’s paced laps, and if anything I bet they have more trouble encouraging people to pick up enough speed not to go sliding down the turns, which start to look a bit like Mount Cheaha if you are looking up from the apron in person.

 

I'm sure you're right. If I was on that track in my 2018 Subaru Forester, I'd probably creep around on the apron line at like 65 or so.

 

Again, if you’re unvaccinated and choose to go out in public and you get severely ill, sorry bro. This is no longer a public health emergency, at least not in the US

 

Maybe it is different in blue states with stricter enforcement, but the people who never bought into the seriousness of the pandemic around here stopped even pretending to do the mask thing many squares back.

 

Last weekend, for the first time in a long time, I went with my wife into the local Costco. They were still strictly enforcing the mask-wearing rule, and to step from the parking lot into the store was like walking into another state.

No one's been wearing masks around here for months.

 

Seven of the 10 whose deaths were announced in Oregon today were 65 or older. They were eligible for the vaccine in February. Not surprising, most lived in counties with low vax rates.

Gotta agree with Cosmo on this. If you get sick and die now, 99.9% chance it's on you.

 

Yannow, I'd take 'em up on it. A Ford Fiesta on a NASCAR track would be funny, but I'd still enjoy it.

VROOM!
