Yeah, not im my circles. Being old comes with quirkinesses and one of these is the _need_ to handshake. We have build relations based on it, we've made deals based on it and made up based on it.

Surely it was a little less during the initial days of this pandemic, but it is all but gone now.

all the old people around here flagrantly disregarding the covid rules is definitely something that has soured the perspective younger people around here, who do observe the rules, have of the elderly.

every time I go shopping or to the market I end up feeling like punching some old people in the face because they're not wearing masks and having chats 1 meter or less apart. meanwhile my younger siblings are struggling because they can't go to their high school or college. Fucking boomers.
