So, with health and safety in mind, here are 13+ tweets to read alone because we’re practicing social distancing!
Shut Up!
I’m sure that there are people out there who would like their neighbor singing to them, but I have heard my neighbor singing from time to time, and no one wants to hear that.

Realism At Its Finest
Well, they’re not wrong. But hey, at least you could see some glassblowing or take your teeth out on a toffee apple as you suffer.

Look, all I’m saying is I’m not sure everyone who flocked to the grocery stores the second they heard coronavirus is now a pandemic really thought that through first.

My Apple Watch Is Also In Isolation.
I used to try wandering around my apartment to get my daily steps in but now I just leave my watch in a drawer because desperate times call for desperate measures, and I don’t need that thing telling me how little I’ve moved today.
I am well aware .
Show-Offs.
It’s so nice you guys can stand outside and sing together but my four story walk-up doesn’t exactly offer the same luxury.
I opened a window this morning and it got stuck.
You Need To Stop That!
I don’t understand why people do this anyway, it’s frankly a disgusting habit regardless of whether there is a pandemic or not!
Freedom!
There is nothing quite like telling Americans that they can’t do something to make them want to do it.

Always buy more than you need when it comes to crackers of any variety! One thing you don’t want to be at times like these is without snacks.

There is nothing like going into a lecture and seeing a professor read out a slide show presentation that is available online verbatim. Some professors make their lectures interesting and useful, but there are some who are putting in the bare minimum!
Irresistable.
That’s how you pick up the ladies nowadays.
And the fellas.
And anyone else who didn’t get to the grocery store on time.
