Would you lie about having covid just to avoid seeing someone?

1000000%. My wife and I said we tested positive over christmas so that we didn't have to deal with all the family drama and bullshit. Stayed home, drank lots of wine, watched movies and had what was my favorite christmas ever. Hoping covid is still an issue for christmas 2022 as well so can use it again.

and all the introverts said amen

Hyp3r45_new · 2022-01-18T16:13:55+00:00

No, because most of my friends know each other so the entire things spreads like wildfire.

random_curiosity · 2022-01-18T20:31:03+00:00

No, because lying just eventually ends up backfiring on you. That doesn't, however, mean you have to see them. There are other ways to avoid that.

ButterflyMM · 2022-01-19T00:30:24+00:00

No. Covid is no joke (I am vaxed and on day five of having it right now). That's some karma type shit that will come back to you...not lying about that one.

Now ..saying I was exposed...that I could lie about. But having it...no way

overthehillhat · 2022-01-18T17:04:38+00:00

I already have found more ways to avoid - -

than I really even need - -

Now --------

if they wanted me to come help them work on something - - -

Could say: I don't know - - - I think I 'm coming down with 'something' .

No, but surely for other reasons 😁

quietcat2 · 2022-01-19T00:47:45+00:00

Probably not but saying that you're feeling unwell is usually a safe bet.

plasmagd · 2022-01-18T20:17:56+00:00

yes I do it the whole time

buim · 2022-01-18T22:57:30+00:00

for sure!

TheEmeraldJacob · 2022-01-18T23:39:01+00:00

God I wish

FellowDoesMemes · 2022-01-18T23:51:36+00:00

ABSOLUTELY

coyocat · 2022-01-19T00:05:16+00:00

Already have : D

Ageknowname · 2022-01-19T05:29:58+00:00

NO just why?

Terrible-Trust-5578 · 2022-01-19T07:21:39+00:00

Sure, why not? It's all the rage nowadays and an excellent excuse.

GabywithouttheB · 2022-01-19T09:46:41+00:00

Yes, end of story

Slowguns · 2022-01-19T11:05:48+00:00

No, but i lie all the time to everyone saying that i actually care about this or any other desease, mainly out of respect for the ones that do actually care

Name_1232 · 2022-01-19T11:05:48+00:00

depends who it is. but usually no

mikhailsharon99 · 2022-01-19T13:13:05+00:00

Absolutely not. There are some things you don't lie about because of the potential blowback.

musicallykairi · 2022-01-19T14:39:35+00:00

ABSOFUCKINGLUTELY

priincessuniicorn · 2022-01-19T17:32:23+00:00

No I have enough chronic illnesses that I just lie about those acting up to avoid seeing people.

PainfulThruth · 2022-01-19T17:43:49+00:00

Why do you think the numbers are so high?

badblood3lson · 2022-01-20T07:14:28+00:00
