Abstract

The article reflects the author's determination to stay healthy during the prolonged virus season, despite the challenges posed by individuals who refuse to follow safety protocols.

I’ll probably live in spite of your stupidity. That’s got to be some kind of milestone.

I was determined not to get sick this virus season, which turned out to last a year and counting.

No thanks to you, you non-mask-wearing, non-social-distancing, non-thinking, anti-vaxxing idiot.

I’ve dodged your willful ignorance bullets; and I’ve lived long enough to receive my 2nd vaccine dose. That momentous occasion happened a week ago. In one more week, I’ll be as bulletproof as one can be these days at least as far as COVID-19 danger is concerned.

I’ll continue to mask and distance because those are the thoughtful intelligent things to do.

You, you miserable dangerous fucks, can do as you will and I’ll definitely continue to dodge you. But, even if your inanity and insanity overwhelm my best defenses and you spread a preventable disease to me I probably won’t die or get seriously ill.

A milestone has been achieved.

No thanks to you 😆

Oh But First, F#@k You!

I’ll probably live in spite of your stupidity. That’s got to be some kind of milestone.
