The only place I see it is on FB groups, especially local town pages. It's rampant complaining about everything. Then again...no different than city data.

Easy solution? Stay off the internet. Go out into the world and get some sunshine (while socially distancing). It's a nice sunny day outside.

This isn't fun for anyone. I'd love to just have a quiet dinner out with my wife and friends right now, and might be guilty of considering selling the kids, but we are all in the same boat so lets support each other.

Yes I’m seeing it in town Facebook pages. I guess I should stop looking because it’s pissing me off

I am working so I can’t go out right now. Plus it’s cold.

Just realize those are the same pages when I've seen people passionately complain that the garbagemen flung their trash barrels to the ground and drove off rather than gently place them back on the curb...

Not far from the truth. I heard 2 days ago a stat that said 56% of the new cases outside NY were from people traveling from NY. That is astounding, and if so, could have been behind Trump's idea to isolate the Tri-State region. I still think something should be done...there are no controls in place, and we're relying on people self-regulating themselves, and self-quarantining at their destination.

Right. In my town here in SW CO, the trash company stopped recycling for sanitation reasons and didn't change their charge and there were howls of anger and dismay on the local group. I am just plain damn happy to have trash service and have said so abundantly.

How about fleeing Bostonians? They have money and are susceptible, too. Nantucket.

Did the news actually say that? I don't see a mention of it being NY'ers.

As a resident of ME, I definitely don't want Bostonians coming up here. I don't even want people from the next county over coming here. STAY PUT people!
