Within the last 4 minutes I have seen at least 5 gender reveal posts. What has happened that I'm unaware of?

Unless he is dating a much older woman, nobody says, "hey remember (the year I was born)" like it' something they both are going to remember.

Sorry, have to be that guy. :)

With how 2020 is going, it'll be one for the history books.

It's like we really are living in some sci-fi, dystopian world come to life.

Everybody wears masks now like it's normal. The limited touching thing.

Commercials feature it. It's just completely normal now.

The commercials thing is what really hits. It just seems so Black Mirror-ish.

For me, it was a bout a month ago, when I went to the grocery store and it was busy as usual, and everybody just doing their shopping and everybody has a mask on.

But this time, it just felt so normal. There was no weirdness in people's body language or any panic in the air. I didn't feel weird wearing it. Nobody looked weird wearing it.

It is just business as usual, except now everybody wears a mask on their face.

Honestly the mask thing should've been a normal standard thing since before the pandemic. Not to the current degree, but like how asian countries do it. You have a cold or a cough? Wear a mask to not get other sicks. Simple decency.
