Re: Friends, the Real-Life Ones

A year ago, not too many. spent most of my time with a few other poker dealers/players. now that i started doing standup, pretty much all of my time is spent hanging with various comics, or fans of comedy. Became kind of a consuming part of my life. I barely have enough time to see and check on all ...

Re: The Captain Trips Anxiety thread

Can't wait for June to start hitting 100 degree temps and watch people start shedding masks. The governor of Texas and Trump in concert have made it abundantly clear that texas is pretty much a safe space for people who don't give a shit about the virus.

Re: Coronavirus - All Sports

I think by late july to august Texas will be pretty much all of the way open. Sports leagues are dependant on other states, so maybe no live sports yet, but I would almost guarantee a few sold out concerts. People here are emphatically sick of shit being closed, and give no fucks for the consequences.

Took all of 2 shifts to eliminate the "players must wear a mask rule" and the 6 players to a table rule. At this point I'm choosing to believe in 2 articles i read that say smokers and weed users get corona less.
