Looks like a lockdown street party to commemorate 75 years since VE day.
I didn’t lose it, i fucking loved it, wish we could have a year long lock down every year
No idea what this is lol
Honestly, first time in a while we had a sense of community on our street.
Kill that which cringes not that which is cringe
I probably did the most socialising during lockdown and it was also a red hot summer so I didn’t even mind it tbh
The clapping for the NHS was so pointless and embarrassing.
Not sure how Reddit dare take the pee out of this now. I thought it was utter madness at the time, but there must have been less than one in a millions reddit posts disagreeing with it all.
The 8pm Clang Clang Clang CLang CLang CLang was where the most insane Muppets really let it out.
It was real for some people. Some of us retained a quiet dignity and stayed the hell inside haha
Remember when they tried to convince us thinly sliced courgette was a suitable replacement for pasta or that chips of cauliflower could replace rice. Weird times.
Where’s the masks!
Straight to Jail!
i personally found the whole lets not give nurses a pay rise and campaign for it as a nation thing but …how about we clap outside our houses and bang pots and pans.
“Thats what they would like isnt it tarquin? them poor folk of the lower classes risking their lives would probably be delighted with that”. “Fucking jolly right Fifi lets do it”
would love the same idea for bankers and utility company bosses. Instead of your pay out you greedy bastards, do you mind if we bang on some pots instead?
I did not take part! found it insulting to nurses/insane.
I quite enjoyed it tbh
I am pretty sure we were all drunk. I for one was drunk the whole time.
No, *they* fully lost it. I didn’t do any of this weird shit
All I had was Maureen from 2 doors down incessantly banging her pots. “Oh must be Thursday today she’s out making a racket again”
If everything goes south you just shout about the blitz and we all collectively rally to make absolutely nonsense parties
I swear nothing changed for me I worked the entire time through it! Like for me, it was like any other year… like did I miss out on something?
Banana bread.
Also that none of those chucklefucks are even close to 2m apart.
Whats this “we” shit. Speak for yourself
It was the happiest I’ve ever been because I didn’t have to socialise with the neighbours. Thankfully they felt the same I think and no bollocks like this was proposed.
Extrovert had full meltdowns whilst for introverts it was the best summer ever.
Don’t speak for me, I was prepped and embraced the chance to get fit. Also I’m glad digital workplace solutions like Zoom, Teams etc enjoyed a boom and showed how unnecessary are city centre offices and commuting. I now enjoy daily laughs at LinkedIn lunatics frothing about how we need to get back into the office for whatever flimsy reason they can grasp at.
I worked all the way through it as a truck driver. I saw several banners saying ‘Thank you Truck drivers’ with kids waving etc. I waved back but thought ‘When this is all over we’ll be back to being scum of the earth again’. I was right.
I don’t see anything wrong with this tbh. The pandemic was awful and scary, and we all had an urge to connect to one another. We did this kind of thing more as human contact was a scarce thing. We reconnected to each other more than we normally did from 2010 to early 2020.
I’d argue we started losing our minds with social media dominating all our lives and living in a post-truth world.
Connecting with your fellow humans and neighbors is the natural thing to do.
