Watching old movies on TV, I can't help but wonder,

[panader0]

why aren't those assholes wearing masks? I look forward to a day, hopefully before I die,
when people can get together safely again.

1. Hah! I've had that thought too--especially with programs filmed more recently.

Nothing is ever going to be the same, is it?

[First Speaker]

2. I wonder if we'll be wearing masks...

...for as long as people wore wigs, roughly from 1660-1800.

3. No social distancing

is starting to look strange on TV. I wonder if there will be a show that has people in masks, social distancing.

4. Not even old movies, just last years'.

It seems strange to watch people at parties or congregating in bars.

5. And they all smoke like crazy in the old movies.

6. I'm the same way, even with more current TV and movies.

I find myself mumbling as I watch....don’t touch that, why are you shaking hands, social distancing, masks, etc. and then I find myself envious of the old ways.

I’m nearly 60, my husband is a healthy 73. We retired in paradise, the beach and a lot of small business and mom ‘n pop restaurants. Yet we wonder if we’ll ever have a night out, or enjoy a Bloody Mary brunch, ever again. I know, first world problems, but we feel so cheated.
