Umm... some "regulars" have considered fun in using names as Covid or Coronavirus. Perhaps they got tired of UT... first measure would be restricting them from moooing around because this is not a funny time and spamming game records, else, the second measure would be editing some firewall policies for all IP Ranges involved, a sort of disinfection at UT level...

I have no intention of flying, only did once to Florida for a 3 day class, the water was terrible there, and a small plane for fun, but I will never fly again.
I don't eat out, cost too much, even fast food racks up a bill these days.
I was never a sports fan, boring.
My last movie I went to was Terminator, too expensive, and I like old TV shows better anyway.
I mainly go shopping, I used to go to events, but they are so commercialized now it takes the hippy individualism away of what they once were.
Concerts are all crap now, no talented musicians, stupid girly singers and rap etc etc.

Cutting the lawn is my highlight in life these days LoLzzz
Going to selected venues then? I've been to two concerts last November alone (Infected Rain / Lacuna Coil / Eluveitie ---- The Agonist / Jinjer) and both were absolutely awesome. Depending on your choice of music, there's plenty good stuff to be heard that's not super commercialized. And at least 4 of the bands mentioned above have *very* talented singers. Just needs a lil' digging.
Same goes for food. Don't care much about fast food, I go out maybe once a month with friends / family. Much better that way.

Well they shut down most of the life here, too. Not that it makes much of a difference for me, same as Hellkeeper I suppose. Might try going on a bike tour now that the weather's holding up a bit better, and trying to get the new layout finalized.

No, we had a "raft race" and people made homemade rafts, and then drinking, so the "authorities" had to kill that off for "safety" The Grand river, by Riverside park in Grand Rapids, Michigan. I say let them friggen die if they are so stupid.

Then we had a "festival"l we still do, but it's all so organized and sanitary, it's lost it's feel of all the different foods and heritage and cultures and the music is just more junk, the school kids got involved more.

We also had a hell of a concert at Fort Wyoming called "Electric Rodeo" REO, Heart, johnny Winters and more at Lamar park, oh hell ya the "authorities" killed that off, there was 8000 people and loud, and drugs. now they even tore the fort down and was used for rodeos and country singers, all gone now. One time "Festus" from the Gunsmoke TV show was there.

Everything now days is either sanitary, vulgar, or low talent, or the more stupid the comedy is, people laugh more while it is not funny at all. And heavy metal is so friggen addlebrained , , hell anyone can get a distortion pedal before they learn how to play, the more vulgar the better "DEATH rock" more like puke rock.
The movies are all hidden messages agenda, anti God, global warming, pro gay, pro abortion, on and on, there is no good vs evil anymore just, feel good gimmee a trophy liberal crap.

My generation didn't have an axe to grind, and the law was the law, and we didn't care about race.
I suppose if I could walk to a rock music bar, I would probably go out more, even then the prices are robbery.

Here is what I am saying, right here. the new generation,

Woah, so many answers to choose from, I can hardly decide. First I thought a good old "Old people: the post" would be sufficient, but I'm not sure about your age and some young people are actually quite young in their head. Then I realized the classic "OK Boomer" would be found a bit agressive, so I settled back on "OK grandpa", especially because of the "death rock" comment, which seemed very oldschool to me, as a death and black metal enthusiast, but I didn't want to sound like those people, you know, the ones who believe they have to pick a side in an imaginary war of the generations and act like theirs is great and the others are/were terrible and full of idiots. I could have used my own personal favourite, the sarcastic "Yeah, back in the days, things were much better, all is going to shit", but there's always a risk readers will not feel the intended irony and completely misread my post.
So my final pick will be as follow:

LoL, well I played guitar and all this death metal crap is pure crap, I am not anti new generation it's what they THINK is so good, all the old rockers could play the same stuff 100000000000 times better.
I invented Metalica style music 15 years before they even came around.

and rap is not "music" and girly singers can't even play other than a skin flute. They have recorded tracks or the band pushes a keyboard one button (like the Cars band, yuck) that is all pre sequenced out, and then synth drums, blagh, boo hiss.

Like when rap came out, my first thought was "I can't believe people think this is new" Queen already did it with "Another one bites the Dust" and every rap, or hip hop is all so elementary so simple minded it's all the same beats and redundant.

Hey now, that's going too far... Rap is most definitely music!

It's not singing, though. As Chuck D once said, he could never sing... which is why he raps.

Looks appropriate.
€ damn that's good. I'm going to borrow this, hope you're okay with it.

Given the current situation may take months to resolve, better boot up your unreal editors, ladies & gentlemen. :>
I've worked on a new layout for a bit today, looks promising although I'm going to have to rethink a few pathways and finish one area. Gonna say, it's going to be at least as difficult as Narean construction wise, possibly even worse.

It's OFF TOPIC by default, seriously... a good metal it's a good metal, and a good rap owns any Rap, that simple, see 90's top rap vs 90's metal - it's a different thing dudes... A Rabbit it's not a Rat even if they both are doing damage to the wooden things...
And now let's build a top of diseases which owns humanity like in previous 3-4 centuries demonstrating that we did not learn anything... or... well...
At least we can spam forums as revenge...
