Rant alert: I was on nextdoor and noticed a woman asking for suggestions for restaurants that are still open for dine-in. Obviously, a lot of people responded asking her not to dine-in and support local/restaurants by take-out & delivery.
She and a few others started responding on that thread saying "we don't want to live our life in fear".
What the F is wrong with people?

These people have clearly never had any sort of restrictions on their lives before.

Imagine being asked to get takeaway as “living in fear” 🙄

As others mentioned, if someone opposes indoor dining, they should bring it up to local government rather than to people who are acting within their rights.

My kid goes to daycare where they have 15 other kids who are not spending their day staying 6 ft apart. Would you judge me the same way?

What’s wrong with eating indoors if the precautions have been taken? 6 ft tables, limited to. 25-50%, etc....

I have to wonder if all those who are living in fear are going to be extremely angry at those who continued to live some version of a normal life once the vaccine becomes universally available.

Would rather support the waitstaff than do takeout. Precautions are taken and have never felt unsafe at any indoor restaurant.
