About 1/2 the people there tested positive within a week, a lot of them symptomatic (mild symptoms and none of the symptoms seem to be the same). Absolutely spreading like wildfire through the midwest right now - we are so far past containing this thing, its not even an option anymore. I had to chew my brother's a$$ for going to one of these. Apparently a somewhat close friend from high school of his, but I was shocked. He's a smart dude going to school for a graduate degree right now. I would've told anyone inviting me to pound sand. Luckily I don't think any of my friend group from high school would be ones to plan their wedding during a pandemic. Link to comment
teachercd Posted October 21, 2020 Share Posted October 21, 2020 Why are cases spiking like crazy in Europe? Didn't they have pretty strict mandates and guidelines? Also...HS here in Omaha went all in about a week ago...rumor has it they will be back to hybrid in two weeks. Link to comment
Moiraine Posted October 21, 2020 Share Posted October 21, 2020 I don't understand people who like weddings, or who have weddings and then make people come to them. And I won't get started on spending more than $5,000. People are weird. 1 1 Link to comment

This is the same response most people get when the schedule a wedding during a Husker game!

(I mean, it is smart, I get it but if you have 300 guests at your wedding...250 of them hardly know you and/or don't want to be there) Link to comment

We had a big wedding, lots of booze, food, dancing - party bussing before and barhopping after - tons of friends/family we never get to see - it was a 10/10 day. That being said my wife and I both said their is no way we could enjoy a COVID wedding. It would be filled with guilt and nervousness, it'd be impossible for anyone to enjoy. I'd just do a courthouse wedding and throw a big ol party once this is all over. Link to comment

I'm probably actually the weird one. $ for the partying drinking part makes more sense than the $ for the costumes and annoying parts. Link to comment

My god...did I just come up with the next Steven Martin movie??? Link to comment

I had a blast and so glad I shared it with a big group of people. It was great to see so many friends and family gathered together. It's actually the last I have seen a few of those family members, and that was 20 years ago. Link to comment

Danny Bateman Posted October 21, 2020 Share Posted October 21, 2020 Zero humility. He still doesn't get it. Or he just doesn't care. Not sure which is worse. 1 Link to comment
Danny Bateman Posted October 22, 2020 Share Posted October 22, 2020 We're in a dark place when a frozen meat product's surprisingly enlightened Twitter account understands a worldwide pandemic better than the President and his hand-picked snake oil salesman on the COVID task force. 1 1 Link to comment
