Ahh yes I loved life when we all had to remain isolated from each other because there was a highly infectious disease spreading around the world with no real way to treat it and millions of people died. Is that what life is supposed to be like?

Mhmm. Great job reading between the lines. That's exactly the point, not, "Commuting to and from work and school and mandatory events is more time consuming than we realize. If we get at least some of that time back, as happened coincidentally during quarantine, our lives could improve." Nope. Definitely your thing.

Yes I obviously understand that. I just think it's a little weird to romanticize it just because some good things came of it.

People suck. Staying at home, catching up on sleep, reading, playing video games, and re-evaluating the important parts of my life was a revelation.

Sorry you didn’t have any loved ones to be isolated with.
