Current dilemma: Do I start going out to the bars again and enjoying my summer break? Or do I continue being a decent human and practice social distancing until cases start to subside? I'm a big proponent of pulling my own weight in the world as I would feel guilty if there was a spike in cases, or I ended up getting someone I know sick.

I'm leaning more towards waiting it out and putting the fun on hold, at least until new cases start to level off. We are reaching new daily highs here in Florida and a couple buddies want to do something this weekend. I haven't been out in months, so this is definitely a bummer to consider sitting it out.

Tough choice

I don't know how it's out in Florida but where school is for me (2 hours from Chicago) shit has been cooled down since the beginning almost. I was there the first weekend bars opened, probably heading down again this weekend. Have some finished business I want to finish again.

Also so supremely unrelated - do you play CSGO?

Things seem like to slowly get back to normal with an increase in cases though last few days. Just be safe, wear a mask and maintain distance from people if you can.

No gaming for me... no time bud.

No sir, I've heard good things about it though and have considered getting back into gaming again (used to be big into COD,) but currently sitting behind a screen enough as is, so have held off.

You looking for people to play?

Yeah, have a bunch of people but understandably not everyone's ready to play any time. DM me if you want my discord or something

Yea, won't be doing anything for a while. Oh well, its for the better.

I assume you're in healthcare? I am working as a scribe for a PCP right now, but have been working remotely. Starting med school next fall and cant wait to be immersed in the action.

More info is needed here. I'm internally chuckling as I'm about to type this as this is a first for me, what do you identify as? Are you of the female persuasion or.....

Also curious to how old you two are.

Regardless, you only dated for 2 weeks. Furthermore, "You decided to stop him from"courting" you"? Don't you mean that you decided to stop seeing him??? If you are ugly and fat, then why did he want to date you to begin with? (I'm not saying you're ugly and fat - obviously I have no clue what you look like) If he makes such comments openly on facebook, then it's good that it only lasted 2 weeks. Oh yeah, and block his ass on facebook. Life is difficult enough without having to deal with shit like this. Self preservation and a healthy mental outlook are key.

Fixed that for you. (Still applies to the following sentences.)

FWIW, I know someone who married a useless lump like that. No ambition, never got a drivers license, happy with his 15 hour/week part-time retail job lump of crap...that sits on the couch all day playing video games while his wife works a full-time job plus side gigs to support them both. Can't hail an Uber, won't call a taxi, and would rather call in-law relatives to drive him to his PT job than ride the bicycle they bought him a mile to the store that he works at. Long story short, RUN don't walk.....

I've come to realize I'm really good at finding them....or them finding me. Not a skill set I am proud of. It won't make my CV.

Sort of - she's a car detailer, and I invited her around to look at the cars to detail them for me. But she spent a full 2 weeks getting my M3 right, so she truly appreciates the cars and doesn't just see them as status symbols.

She even purchased "Lambo jeans" in white so she would be able to go for a ride in them

Well, lets critically examine the question and see what sort of conclusion we reach shall we?

You once indicated you have shares in the company worth about $5M. That suggest you are either lucky, or not young (but perhaps not old). This is interesting, but neither here nor there as you may be lucky, or you might be old.

Next, you've indicated you can code quite well even while impaired on narcotics, implying a level of intelligence. Therefore, I think we can safely rule out "silly" / "fool".

Lastly, from the way you speak, I would have guessed you'd be in your 50's, potentially early 60's, but I'd guess more towards the 50's mark. The older I get (at 38) the more leniency I find I'm willing to extend to the age I consider to be "old". Therefore, I wouldn't consider this age to be old.

Now if we were to put everything together, we've ruled out "silly old fool" as the correct answer. We've also eliminated "old", which suggests then that "dirty old man" is also not correct, since it contains the term "old".

And since you've promised to ship me the Lambo (either one really) and it hasn't materialized, I can only conclude that you are most assuredly a bastard, and we are therefore left with the conclusion that you are a "lucky bastard" as the correct answer.
