Bulldawg RED is preferred
Burnt orange metallic looks great on a Vette.
Our Hyundai is a very dark blue, it looks black under some lighting.
I'd buy the ugliest car on the lot if it lasts long and is dependable - hard to tell what they are anymore - 10-12 yr old Hondas/Toyotas

I think most cars look the same these days, I can't readily tell if it's a Ford or Chevy or Toyota, especially the small "SUVs".  The front of the Tucson looks different, but the Nissan looks similar.  They are all slightly raised small station wagons to me.

They're all designed by the same computer programs to be optimized for the same wind tunnel performance. The only difference is the trim.

I suppose we'll never be rid of ALL of the Lockdown Larrys and Mandate Marvins.

I remember you said early on that we would have to live with this forever. This remains as the truth.

B.R.A.D. said you couldn't get it more than once. Many agreed.

I lost track. I think it's 5 or 6 for me.

I'd like to see some actual numbers on this "surge".  It's simply not at all a "thing" around here.

CDC COVID Data Tracker: Trends by Geographic Area

This graph shows a very very minor bump far far lower than any previous "surge".  It's barely perceptible.

Did I say that? I don't recall. I do know we all wondered how durable the natural immunity would be, since other coronaviruses it's generally not very durable. 

But hey, I have only had it once. So there.

You and others made fun of me for months on that issue.

Bastages.

I'm still scarred from all of the abuse.

It probably is and you just don't notice it. 

The two places I've noticed it is the number of people at work who have had it all in the last 1-2 months. It's definitely higher than any time I can recall in the last 24 months or so. And then my wife is the office manager of an internal medicine practice, and the number of their patients reporting COVID infections is WAY up. 

Those are both anecdotal, of course. But being retired, perhaps you're not in a place where you'd have the same regular access to this type of anecdotal info. If you were still a working stiff, maybe you'd be seeing that it is "a thing" around there.

LOL. Just as you were making fun of everyone saying (despite me saying I'd not had it at all) that I had it...

Twice!

Don't blame us that you're a COVID magnet, buddy :57:
