How did the deck parties work during the heart of COVID? Did they just send Doordash credits to everybody?

My guess would be it would be just like the 50 year anniversary . No worries, can’t get sick at a party. Let’s not forget the system meltdown during that party , in what is an embarrassment of how they where treated.

Just call it a "mostly peaceful protest" with food drink and entertertainment, and you are exempt from the rules of epidemiology......

Yuuuup.

A memory that'll live forever in my memory is the phone call from my wife who got stranded by us on that same day, missing the funeral she bought the ticket for: "I'm never flying this f$@*ing airline again."

But hey, we're right where we want to be, apparently.

Its called a ‘reject’ now, you know SCOTUS.

"unwanted takeoff"
"terminated takeoff"
