Karenhood in Massachusetts measured quantitatively

After 40+ years of sitting at a computer and typing, my back is in no shape for packing and moving to the Florida Free State. A friend’s 16-year-old soccer star and some of his teammates have been essential to our sorting/discarding/packing process. The muscle turned out to have a quantitative measurement of Karenhood in Massachusetts. Neighbors in his suburban town called the police on 19 separate occasions after observing the high school soccer team practicing (outdoors) without strict mask discipline. (There were more than 19 individual calls to the police. In fact, during one practice 5 different Mask Samaritans called the police.)

The most dramatic COVID-19 team response was five town officials converging on the soccer field. Two coaches, two people from the public health department, and a police officer.

Very loosely related, from Coronavirus Rescue Team (May 13, 2020):

(I told the above story to a woman who lives in Concord, Maskachusetts, center of the BLM movement, at least to judge by the prevalence of lawn signs. “I was walking with my sister in a wide-open field with nobody around,” she said. “A car stopped and the driver yelled at us for not wearing masks.”)

  1. Have they tested everyone in Lincoln for sanity? It’s contagious. It’s not just the Quantity Theory. And masks don’t work to stop it, either.

  2. Until the past week or so, it seems most people in FL stopped wearing masks around April 2021, and certainly so at my 500-person workplace.

  3. I got my no-cost annual flu shot at CVS yesterday, the three Millennials in front of me were getting their Covid vax.

  4. Now that philgistan is relocated, can we expect fewer Massachusetts posts and more heat-and-humidity stuff?

    Florida is crying out for government-issued air conditioners and swimming pools!

    • The government gave me a $500 rebate when I installed a tankless natural gas water heater last year at my FL residence.
