I like Facebook. I'd like to think most people I'm friends with are nice, caring, sensible (ish) people. However, since Coronavirus, I think some of the are now experiencing what I will now name Coronavirus Muppetry. I am unable to write my real thoughts on Facebook so will offload (light heartedly) here so that I won't get the comment twitch. I will call all people Karen to hide their real life identity....

1 - Yes it is a shame the hairdressers are shutting earlier Karen - IF GOING TO THE HAIRDRESSERS IS ESSENTIAL CONTACT
2 - Yes Karen it is a shame you are working as you are frontline staff (moaning she has to leave an adult child home alone and before I get the comment there are no additional needs) OTHER PEOPLE HAVE LOST THEIR JOBS.
3- Going on an outdoor Picnic with friends is NOT SOCIAL DISTANCING even if you do sit a bit further apart.

Feeling better already. Might have cabin fever. Feel free to add yours so that we can just all move on

Loving this thread, so glad i dont do Facebook

Whitelisbon · 23/03/2020 18:58

I have at least 3 people on facebook who've spent the last week posting about how terrified they are of coronavirus, and that they're delicate little flowers who will die of it. All of whom have posted multiple pictures today of them and their little cherubs frolicking in the park, the supermarkets, etc etc.
And one who had a full blown rant about the country park nearby having closed.

No, drinking hot soup will not kill corona virus. Don’t you think that Boris would have mentioned it if it did? Drinking soup would be far better for the economy than lockdown/social distancing/isolation!

ViciousJackdaw · 23/03/2020 19:03

Having two children at home all day is doing your head in is it? Funny that, you used to tell me that you didn't know what I was missing out on by not having them.

Redcliff · 23/03/2020 19:05

Err - if you started self isolating two days ago why did you go into work today?

I would like to reserve a special place in hell for the utter twats who buy scarce items (loo roll, pasta, hand gel etc.) then offer it at cost or free to the group most deserving of their Lady Bountiful act. Single mums/ older people/ NHS/ teachers/ whatever.

Seriously, leave it in the sodding shop shelf where they would expect to find it, not your house of unknown cleanliness standards which they have to collect from.

Min is the preaching ones telling everyone to socially distance whilst their kids have friends over....

MrsSnitchnose · 23/03/2020 19:15

The ones that never post usually that are now posting all the mundane fuckery they're getting up to with the kids and cluttering up my feed with shit. Snoozed five of them today!

Oh god my friend sent me a message saying she had been out for a walk and kept away from everyone.

Later on Facebook, it turned out she had gone for her responsible walk WITH her mother (different household) and her mother in law (from a different part of the bloody country!) along with her baby. Loads of photos of them all hugging.

JoyceTempleSavage · 23/03/2020 19:23

You’re not Practicing Social Distancing. Practice is a noun. Use the verb- Practise

As you were

floatygoat · 23/03/2020 19:26

Can you please stop posting photos of your kids doing cosmic yoga, painting pine cones and long multiplication, Karen??. I don't give a fuck. Ill hear from you in two weeks and see how your twee little home school is doing then. Muppet.

Theodoreb · 23/03/2020 19:29

Friend with symptoms high fever and cough been going everywhere and now her whole family are bad friend even went to hen do with 50 people yet now is slagging everyone else of for going out while bad. When someone points out that she was out and started the mini outbreak in small village she lies and said gp performed a corona virus test and she tested negative. AngryAngryAngry

SpeedofaSloth · 23/03/2020 19:29

Use the verb- Practise

Oh yes. I am actually a little bit in love with you for that.

runrabbitrunrunrun · 23/03/2020 19:32

Fuck off with your smug kid homeschool activities. No one gives a fuck!

Yes!

KellyMarieTunstall2 · 23/03/2020 19:39

To all the mothers who are homeschooling, oh do fuck off. Get on with it and stop posting shite on social media.
To my friend who lectures daily on social distancing, fuck the fuck off
To the cock wombles who are sharing pics of themselves in hospital wearing face masks, Fuck right off.
I need to stop looking at it and homeschool my kids insteadgrin]

Falangalangadingdang · 23/03/2020 19:41

God this is so cathartic reading all these Grin

HelloBambinos · 23/03/2020 19:42

@CalleighDoodle yes!

Karen taking your 3 young kids and husband to the shops for the early admission for NHS staff and tesco staff (when you are neither) and then complaining how heartless the staff are for not letting you and your poor starving angels in makes you an entitled prick.. selfish wankbadger

Glassmami · 23/03/2020 19:52

Omg @JadziaSnax yes!!! The amount of bullshit I've seen from a few people about how Corona and 5G are connected is ridiculous!

Jellycatspyjamas · 23/03/2020 20:04

After telling everyone you’re self isolating because of your sons awful, dreadful autoimmune condition (which honestly is quite awful), and his terrible anxiety that he might get the virus and die and excusing yourself and your hubby from work to protect your child it was lovely to see photos of you with family from abroad, including a toddler, out and about in the park, staying over at yours for “a wee break before they fly home”.

Off your fucking heads. Seriously.

LefttoherownDevizes · 23/03/2020 20:04

No Felicia you are not the person of the people you claim to be if you think it's ok to rent a holiday house in Wales and decamp there for a month as you couldn't possibly see out there next for weeks in your £1m 4 bedroom mansion flat Hmm
