Title: Strange affects Coronavirus has had on you
Post by: ME## on June 11, 2020, 11:50:12 AM
Due to my inability to go to Starbucks twelve times a week and my unwillingness to buy milk, I'm starting to prefer straight black coffee (with some sugar).  I'm becoming a boomer. smithicide;


Soon I'll be standing at checkout lines demanding I get a military discount because my wife's boyfriend's cousin was in the ROTC

Dude I think you're becoming less of a boomer if anything. Black coffee is trendy

Biggest affect covid has on me is feeling like my lungs are full of shards of glass everytime that i cough (jk)

Really for me it's just working from home and not-commuting anymore. I was cycling at least 150 miles/week with just commuting and now I'm probably doing closer to 50. Some positives, though, like I have 2 extra hours of free-time every day due to not commuting. Been doing yoga with my gf every morning and I am starting to see the benefits and really dig it. Also have more time to game which is maybe good maybe not good lol

Yea I'm pretty sure most old people I know take their coffee with cream and sugar.

I dunno that it's had too many strange effects upon me other than sometimes being BORED TO TEARS. This weekend I'm giving up on complete isolation and I'm going to see if I can find a secluded section of beach around here.

Also quarantine got me back into League of Legends fuck. I hate myself

I've lost almost 15 lbs from going from eating out 3-5 times a week to maybe 3 times a month lol

tbf i also run 20 miles a week lol

but pre Rona it wasn't making much of a dent in my weight at all


tho it could also be a seasonal thing since i think the body like to hang on to fat during wintertimes

my big massive thighs have shrunk
other than that I've grown rather calm, cute and more energetic
sunbathing, going out to the beach and painting really gives me a strong glow

Same- for the first couple months of quarantine I was finding myself putting in 9-10 hour days for no reason really. When I don't have an office to walk away from it's easy to just stay in work mode.

Although I've actually lessened my responsibilities at work (I was literally doing two people's jobs for like 3 months and we hired both of those positions lol) and now I'm struggling to find work for my normal 8 hours lol

yeah i cant decide lol. i'm pretty strapped for WFH now; got a new standing desk slash workspace area and a ballin' wireless headset.
my org announced whenever we do come back that they will have a 3-day remote, 2-day in option for staff as a new org policy. the caveat is you lose privileges for a dedicated workspace and i JUST fucking got an office less than 2 months before we closed down lmao. so if i go that route i will lose my cool new office. idk. i can still remote 1 day a week, buuuuuut i kinda like not having to be around people all the time lol

fuck i would love that. i like the office but man every day is grueling. just nice to have the options.

but yeah my home office space is so comfy now and i am just as productive than going in. browsing the internet or playing my switch has replaced talking to my coworkers about nothing which i am okay with lol
