Nearly two years into this global nightmare, we are all starting to wonder what the hell is dragging this out so long. So, I'm just gonna come out and say it already.

You suck.

Why are we still living in this never-ending nightmare? Because you are acting like a selfish child!

Now I know that a tiny number of you can't get vaccinated. And, of course, I'm not pressuring anyone with legit allergies to do something that might hurt them. I'm also not saying that parents with young kids should be blaming themselves for any of this. No judgment from me if you fall into one of those two camps.

But I gotta be real with you for a minute here, my vaccine-hesitant friend or family member. That is only an incredibly small minority of you all. The rest of you? Well, to put it bluntly, your excuses have started wearing thin. They're lame, unoriginal, and lacking in even a speck of the truth.

What excuses? Let's go over them just so we can cover them all.

Lame Reasons You Don't Want to Get the Vaccine.

They don’t know if there are any long-term side effects.
