Guilt Free Railing Four

[WouldBeGood]

The tone stays low and the railing goes on

We have dozens of workmen digging up our street atm. Struggling to see how them socialising while watching the match is different from them working together to keep safe around all the drill bits and electric cabling all week.

Probably a great deal lower risk than thousands per day higher risk individuals funnelling through the vaccine centres.

Logic left the discussion some time ago.

It's pathetic the way that football fans have been treated. They just do what they like. They've painted the pope's wall in bellahouston. Park red white and blue and will no doubt socialise all through the day and night while the rest of try to follow the rules.

It's selfish and arrogant.

I understand people gathering for important reasons but not this utter bullshit.

@SempreSuiGeneris I can only assume you've never seen football fans socialising together. It's nothing like people making their way through socially distanced vaccinations centres.

Female friend has 10 people in her house watching the game. Has posted a picture onto FB. Was also at Ibrox the other week for celebrations too. Really irresponsible.

I really enjoy a mass celebration of football or rugby or a gig, and I can see why it’s happening. Human nature.

I don’t know if that was snarky @mibbelucieachwell but hey ho

@WouldBeGood most people enjoy that stuff. Most people also know that it's selfish to do it in the middle of a pandemic.

snowcoveredcampsies you would be wrong on all counts.

@SempreSuiGeneris well the football celebrations you have witnessed must be a lot more civilised than any I've ever seen.

I selfishly devote my entire life to my own personal pleasure, without a thought for others, in a bacchanalian frenzy of pleasure seeking.

Wouldbegood Absolutely not meant to be snarky. Honestly I sometimes rail at my propensity to get angry at covid rules. I know they're inconsistent, shouldn't sweat the small stuff etc. Being angry isn't healthy is what I meant.

at your bachanalian frenzy of pleasure seeking

Thanks @mibbelucieachwell 😃

My DC grew up on weekly trips to the City on the bus either accompanied by the Bingo crowd or the football support and sometimes both if the timing was really awry. Not much to choose between them.

Starting to feel like my normal was in fact an alternate reality the way it's discussed these days.

@SempreSuiGeneris I know what you mean.

I feel it’s a alternate universe where wanting to see people and do things, get my haircut or go to a cafe, a gallery or in holiday is viewed as outrageous.

It's quite scary really when you think about all of the things we used to do that we can't now and no clear idea of when we might be able to do them...I try not to think about it too often but I am today and it's not a great feeling

I want to come to one of your parties!

Meh. We're selfish and tantrumming for wanting normal and wanting to go round infecting people. We should be grateful the caring, loving SG is keeping us safe by stopping our self destructive behaviour.

@ResilienceWanker I am indeed planning one 😂

And what leapt out to me was - surely we are at the end of a pandemic and not in the middle! God I hope this isn't the middle...

would it's clearly the last days of Rome here with you expecting a sunny vacation, how dare you?

😃 @anon444877 it’s all roast dormouse, wine, and concubines round mine

Just had a quick look and approx half of edc have been vaccinated but only a third of Glasgow city. Presumably younger population in Glasgow.
I really think now they know vaccination reduces transmission they should speed up roll out in high infection areas.

I agree @shouldistop, as the vulnerable to severe illness have been done now.

I wonder how easy it is to get to the Louisa Jordan by public transport? Unless they've put on bus services or opened up the tunnel from the station, I wouldn't have thought that easy. That could cause a problem for non drivers in Glasgow.
