I define elderly by an urge to check my pulse first thing in the morning.

Too bad sheltering in place will not make Bolshevik Bernie and his ilk go away.

Just found this for NC residents: (may or may not be helpful)

Got questions? North Carolina Poison Control has established a hotline, available 24/7 and staffed by nurses and pharmacists to answer questions about coronavirus, including symptoms, how to assess and reduce the risk of catching the virus and what to do if if coronavirus is suspected. Call 1-866-462-3821.

If anybody travels out of the US, they should be told they might not be able to return for at least several months - if ever (in case they die overseas).
Nobody in or out, except for emergencies, for at least a month.

Elderly/useless eaters report to your nearest facility. Harboring septuagenarians/octogenarians will henceforth be considered a felony.

Here oldster, take this GOV mint. Our docs said it is good for you.

Euphemism for cowering.

Does having a serious underlying bad attitude count?

Maybe we can put a dagger in the heart of this “open borders” cr@p
and Georges Soros and Nancy Pelosi can reap the benefits of this
ridiculous policy.

Lol

Nah I’ve been doing that after a night of drinking since I was 30 :)

I had the opposite effect one night after mixing a lot of different drinks.

insanely fast palpitations followed by what felt like my heart stopping for a few seconds and then palpitations again and it went on all night. I was just thinking well either I’ll wake up or I wont. Obviously I woke up :-)

BM? What’s that

If you have to ask that question, you're definitely not elderly. :-)

I refer to it as “no borders” instead of “open borders” since that’s what they are actually promoting.

“I define elderly by an urge to check my pulse first thing in the morning.”

At 81, if I wake up, I don’t need to check my pulse, everything is probably still working.
