Places you are missing because of the COVID-19 shutdown

Xenu!!!!

Thrift stores....pizza place....coffee with a friend

Golden Coral is a white trash filling station.

Cheaply made food for the masses.

my friends' places

Golden Corral?

Fat whores lament!

Sorry, this thread is for the Poors

The Ramrod

Church

They still have Golden Corrals? I thought they all went under, but I guess people still want their $9 steaks and all you can eat salad bar.

Downtown in general.

I miss swimming and working out at the fitness center.

How much junk and clutter do you buy, OP? Five Below?

That is correct. Alas, Golden Corral still exists: see link where they offer to bring the virus and bacteria right to your home.

Spa

Brunch!

My gym! I fuck my trainer!

HomeGoods!! I love you HomeGoods!!!

Welfare. Wayfair.

With drugstores running low on douches, I have my own distancing defenses!

I'm not a capitalist slut, so I'm only missing Dunkin Donuts and sitting in McDonalds.

I miss anal.

I miss picking up the day laborers in various mass parking lots for anonymous sex and sundries.

good times

The anal bleaching salon! My hole is browning out!

All the cruising grounds, eg rest areas, libraries, rest areas, restrooms, etc.

R24 - Aaron, just repeat this to the housekeeper at the villa - "Mi gilipollas marrón necesita un lavado". I'm sure she's done it before.

Concert venues -- already missed six shows I had lined up Mar/Apr

Bars

R26 How much should I tip Consuela for bleaching my mussy?

It’s Consuelo, Aaron at R28.

[quote] Concert venues -- already missed six shows I had lined up Mar/Apr

A Star is Born etc and other boring Judy crap is on TCM, R27, so you don't have to sit in an auditorium looking like a dowager glaring at everyone else.

Consuelo bleaches by dipping wet.

I don’t miss anything. My partner and I enjoy each other’s company. We are eating well and watching lots of movies.

But are you eating each other R32?

Slammer

Jimmy'z Monte-Carlo

Work. Yeah. I miss going to work.

I enjoy working, unbelievably so. And what really bums me out is that I have an amazing wardrobe at this particular moment, and I cannot wear it anywhere, without wearing a fucking mask and disposable, latex gloves. These things are accessories I never bargained for! And the most annoying thing about this, is that I live in an area where people are under the odd impression that they, themselves, are not vulnerable to this virus, hence pretty much NO ONE wears masks or gloves, making it even more imperative that I consistently wear mine, & I’ve noticed people reacting negatively to the fact that I am in the tiny, minuscule minority, that does. It’s almost as if I’m breaking some unspoken, yet agreed upon social norm by wearing them, despite it being a part of the loose, yet strongly suggested protocols in place for minimizing exposure and infection. I guess that I look as if though I’m a hypochondriac or alarmist? Or perhaps I’m a reminder that this is real and happening?

Yeah. Living in a conservative town, where almost everyone LOVES Trump during the advent of this pandemic is a big reminder of the following: no matter what happens as a result of this, even if Trumpsters experience a death of a loved one due to this pandemic, most all of them will continue to support him and vote for him in 2020.

He won the PR war on this one among his base. No question.

glory hole

truck stop

skid row

I am NOT missing. Talking to 'poolboy' who is aged 68 with a shaggy Covid-19 infested beard: he came to my front door today expecting me to open it so he could breathe all over me while he waved the "Stainless Banner" in his own peabrain while he told me all the pumps etc worked. I didn't miss at all. I kept the front door closed but I could hear him shouting and he could hear me shouting back; he was not pleased. I expect I will have to fire him/his company and get someone else; it's too gross to expect me to share all these germs.

/other people’s crotches

I'm a fattie so sometimes I miss McDonalds french fries or Wendy's spicy chicken sandwich. I could actually go get both of those things but I'm also lazy.

^^^THIS

There's nothing quite like the words "all you can eat" to cheer a gal up!

theater (especially Broadway)

Chinese, Indian & Brazilian buffets

symphony orchestra performances

seeing a movie in a theater

social groups

visiting family members

Coffee shops. The beach. Museums. Bookstores. Sporting events.

I just want a fucking haircut! I’m going to look like Crystal Gayle pretty soon.

I am missing him placing his very large penis inside me. I am missing his loads. I am missing that freshly-fucked feeling. He says he has to shelter-in-place with is wife and children.

Visiting my parents, getting my hair cut, shopping at Nordstrom, eating in a restaurant, going out for drinks with friends.

Oscars and Hunters, Palm Springs.

The Barracks, Cathedral City.

^^^But what about the Tool Shed???

shopping at Nordstrom

Ehat

Pool parties

McDonald’s playground

Kindergarten parent teacher night

Housing Works. Not only do I miss it for browsing and shopping, I am spring cleaning while on lockdown and have loads of clothing and household items to donate. The longer the donations sit here, the more frequently I will rummage through and decide to keep some things after all.

I miss the neighbors and neighborhood regulars whom I know only in passing, and the store workers. I miss feeding treats to my dog pals out for their walks. I miss waving to the barbers and hotel staff as I pass by. I miss going to the public library. I even miss the annoying tourists who descend on my neighborhood every weekend.

Soon. Soon.

Phil

R45 jealous!

I'm not missing going any place at all except the casino poker room. Other than that, nowhere. Could do this forever.

Man Hole. Back Door. Club Tush. Dream Balls.

The Gallus

The Cove

Poster Hut

The drag queen Woolworths at Ansley

Planet Fitness??? Gross. I miss CrossFit.

r48 What about Rainbow Cactus?

[quote]They still have Golden Corrals? I thought they all went under, but I guess people still want their $9 steaks and all you can eat salad bar.

That sounds more like Sizzler than Golden Corral. Golden Corral is just a traditional buffet -- not a steak + salad bar. (Maybe it used to be in the past, but I don't know--they've only started appearing in California in recent years and they've all been traditional buffets.)

I don’t miss big box stores but I do miss the sweet, little, shabby, easygoing, local joints that will likely go under. I pre-miss them.

Thrift stores, home goods, Marshall’s/tjmaxx - I desperately need new sheets and a down comforter. I tried getting the down comforter on amazon but soonest delivery is May 17th. Wtf. They were all like that...unless I wanted a down alternative. I dont want an alternative anything. I want the real one.

I can’t go on like this too much longer.

Yeh, I miss just wandering around stores looking at stuff. I actually miss going into work, too. I always thought I'd like to work from home, but I've quickly realized it's my only social outlet. I don't necessarily feel lonely, just alone.

Record stores. I know some of them are still open (while only allowing a limited number of shoppers at a time) but I don't want to flip records that everyone else has touched.

You mean the "Rainbow Casket", r59..

r62 Try Walmart, JCPenney, Target, Kohl's, Macy's. I've ordered stuff for delivery from Kohls and Target and it's all arrived within a few days.

1. restaurants

2. social distancing-free grocery shopping; delivery has failed where I live, and I hope I never have to go shopping again. I've taken to eating one egg instead of two; half a can of tuna w/half a can of soup instead of the whole; and so on, in an attempt to make things last longer. I have no choice but lose weight by the time this is over.

Lands end.com.

Aldi and Dollar General

Why can’t you access that, R68?

Yeah, r68. I'm getting emails from them several times a day with offers.

r69 I've done three successful Instacart orders with Aldi. They had more in stock than other places I tried.

[quote] I'm getting emails from them several times a day with offers.

Why don’t you on their site and order?

Lands End [italic]en virus[/italic]:

r73 I don't need anything. I wasn't the one who posted that he was missing it.

R74 that's grim. But maybe they can find the spine to improve the quality of their merchandise, which is so spotty.
