“You have jumped through thousands of hoops and flown for over 26 hours to finally arrive back in America after being stuck in a foreign country for two years; what are you going to do next?”
“I going to go to the CVS at the closest Target in order to get vaccinated.”
“Wait, you’re not going to one of the world’s most famous amusement parks?”
“Do they have vaccines there?”
“Well, no, but they have a lot of other exciting stuff.”
“Like what?”
“Long lines to really short rides.”
“Anything else?”
“Overpriced food, and cheap trinkets for sale.”
“Something more substantial.”
“Thousands of maskless tourists waiting to be your friend in the shared experience.”
“How about something more topical?”
“A heightened chance to catch the world’s most deadly disease.”
“And what do you call this place?”
“The happiest place on Earth! Can you think of any place happier?”
“Yes, the CVS at the closest Target where, if we all go to vaccinated for free, we can get back to a normal life. There is nothing happier than that.”
