The Coronavirus Challenge....

So there is now a newer ( and still stupid ) challenge going around regarding the Coronavirus.
I'm still not clear what the challenge is. I don't know if they are trying to get the virus or if they are taking a risk. A very stupid stupid risk.
So the challenge, and I can't believe people are doing this, is to record themselves licking various objects such as poles, rails, car-door handles, grocery store items and, toilet seats.
I've heard and seen some really stupid challenges but this one is by far the worst. Not only are they putting themselves at risk, but now others along with it. Hey, in regards to other challenges in the past, if people wish to eat tide pods, snort condoms or run across railway tracks just before a train comes by then by all means, go be stupid. But THIS challenge is putting others at risk.
My goodness people can be so stupid!

@Butterfingers That's right. And it's so stupid people are trying to get it. Same with how there are others who are deliberately trying to give it to others.

@Butterfingers Yeah that's what I read too. I don't really have any sympathy for him to be honest. He did a stupid thing.

I like to refer to this as natural selection, when stupid people do stupid things to get themselves killed. I mean we do need a lot less stupidity in this world and if these idiots kill themselves off maybe they will do it before procreating more idiots in the world.

@Bensen32 lol that is very true! Though, I was just saying to another MyLotter, what has happened where younger people these days are more prone to doing very stupid things? It's easy to just call them stupid but there must be a reason.

@oahuwriter Yeah I saw a video about that. As well as police in Philadelphia pretty much saying they won't be charging anyone of some crimes until later on to keep police safe. So no doubt people will be using this to their advantage.

They think, "Oh it can't happen to ME!" Oh yes, it can!
Have you seen the news about the dummies going into grocery stores and coughing all over the produce and fresh foods? These people need to be horse-whipped, fined and made to pay back the grocery store for all the food they had to throw out.

One of the toilet seat lickers has cought the corona. Some influencer I've never heard about, I seem to be out of reach of the influence of the influencers.
If you want to lick something, the toilet seat is probably the best place if you don't want to put other people in danger, 'cause after touching that, most people wash their hands. Still really stupid though. I just don't get these challenges, they're so pointless.

@Torunn I saw that too. I didn't put that part in because I wasn't completely sure if that was true but thank you for saying it. I saw the dude licking the toilet seat but I couldn't confirm the rest.
Exactly right. Pointless and stupid.

@VivaLaDani13 I think I read it in a fairly reliable newspaper, but of course, can't be 100 % sure. I'd say 70-80 %.
I really hope that quite of few of them get something and have to stay away from social media for a while, but I should probably also wish that their followers started to think and stopped liking things like that.

@Torunn That's the thing that worries me. We have morons and irresponsible people who think these challenges are worth it and if they were to get it, well it's their own stupid fault but for those who are a carrier and infect others is what annoys me.

This is exactly the reason why Darwin's theory of natural selection needs to continue to exist. We need to selectively weed out all the idiots from the population. Maybe licking toilet seats is a great way to remove those idiots from the gene pool.
