re: #172 Yeah Sure WhatEVs

Someone calculated the number of people in their bubble, and what started off as like 4 people wound up being like 50. Unless you’re like me who goes to the grocery store once every two weeks, my hubby has two employees and encounters other people at work, and the only other person we deal with is my MIL to whom shopping is an addiction and her eldest caters to her every whim and enables her. Also, he goes shopping a lot.

So what’s my bubble? Me (1), hubby (3) and MIL (Who knows).

So hubby’s bubble is 2. Each of them has a spouse (his bubble is now 4). One has a part time child, so that’s 5. That child is in school. The bubble is exponential. Oh and the other spouse works, too.

Bubbles are bullshit if you don’t know every single person’s every move.

In California, the bubble is people you socialize with without masks, and there are a lot of rules people are supposed to follow before they can set one up. That doesn’t sound like what you’re talking about.
