Rant about people and COVID19 (mostly people)

I went to the grocery store today. All throughout the store are signs to keep 6 feet apart and stickers and tape on the floor to help people.

However This plan will only work if PEOPLE would only put their sticking cellphones down for just a moment. Crikey, can people, even in these times, not put their stupid cell phone down and just do shopping?

Once again the aisles were blocked by people not shopping. Drove me nuts.

But wait, it gets worse

While I was stuck in grocery traffic, I noticed this woman wearing an improvised face mask. The issue was that this face mask was made from an American Flag. Not material with the flag pattern, but a genuine flag. I could see the seams and hems.

Whiskey Tango Foxtrot. Why would anyone think this was appropriate? Yikes. I don't understand people and the more I am around them, the less I want to understand about them.
