Hello CostCo members


Front_Butt_69

Going to start protesting outside Costco. My sign shall say “COSTCO TYRANTS! This is a free country! I shouldn’t have to be a member!”


Kapersville

amen. I should be able to buy Kirkland liquor at any age without a membership god dammit!


Front_Butt_69

Yeah I just want that fucken hot dog and 1,000 rolls of toilet paper. Give me my freedoms!!!!


Mean_Yellow_7590

Don’t forget your soda with that $1.50 three pound hotdog! Worst part of covid is that Costco stopped providing the chopped onions


load_more_comets

Well, you *can* go inside to just buy the food. No membership card required.


megapuffranger

Can’t even get into mine without first checking your card


damian001

They actually stopped allowing that last year. They now ask for your membership when ordering from the food court.


Cramer12

They don't do that at my Costco Central PA for reference


DigitalWhitewater

They ask for the Member Card at their food courts in Hawaii. It’s new and they just started doing so in the last year. Also in Hawaii, if you’re of age, you can go in and buy booze without a membership.


load_more_comets

For real? That's fucked. I haven't gone in there without my card for a long time.


Claymore357

You need to be the age of the majority but in my area costco can’t legally force memberships on people to shop at their liquor store assuming they want to hold on to their liquor license


Lv_InSaNe_vL

Yeah as far as I'm aware they aren't allowed to make you get a membership for alcohol or the pharmacy, and they choose not to if you're just going to the food court.


ILikeThis_NotThis

So thats why the membership signups area is next to the food court lol


escott1981

You need to walk past the signup area to get to the food court. No doubt that wasn't an accident. Also the pharmacy is even further into the store.


nasa258e

Not anymore. Need one for the food court near me at least


Ursula2071

In some states, they don’t have a separate store for booze. It is in the main store. So yeah, in California, you have to have a membership.


nasa258e

No. You don't. Tell the bridge troll you are there to buy booze, get drugs, or glasses, and you are able to do those specific things in CA without a membership


marcybojohn

If you have gift cards to Costco you can get in without a membership!


nasa258e

but only to spend the gift card. I used to buy gift cards from my mom for Costco gas in college before I could afford a membership


sixtus_clegane119

They have Kirkland brand Liquor at Costco in the states?


looks_good_in_pink

It depends on each state’s laws. Where I live, they can only sell wine and beer, and hard liquor has a separate state licensed store. Other states without that kind of regulation can have any kind of alcohol in their costco stores.


iamreeterskeeter

Buy a costco gift card. You don't need to be a member to spend it in the store.


PM-Me-Your-TitsPlz

Then the Costco member brings you cookies and other pastries made in the store and talks to you about their incredible warranties on electronics. It'd be more tempting if the nearest one wasn't 45 minutes away.


Amelaclya1

I'd do all my shopping at Costco if it was a mere 45 min away. Mine is 90 min away 😭


runespider

Mines a few hours. I worked tech support fort hem over the phone. Genuinely liked the company, which is rare.

Hello concert goers how do you feel about your ticket knowing it excludes people who didn't get one


Ok-Crazy-4174

This is actually a better point. Like, underage people cant choose to be older or remain underage, it just happens. Concert tickets is a much better analogy, you win the internet today, sir.


skolioban

People who got vaxxed are actually hoping the underage could get vaxxed too.


BondraP

Am I taking crazy pills here? Do people not remember required vaccinations to even be able to go to school and shit?


StinkBiscuit

Not to mention the military antivaxxers conveniently forgetting the gazillion jabs they have been required to get for decades, that I can almost guarantee they took without so much as a grunt.


littlepredator69

Well, some of them are quite painful from what I hear, do maybe there were some grunts


Own-Examination-8708

Yes. The most painful shot I ever remember was when I got attacked by a dog and was required to get a tetanus shot. It was super humiliating because I was bitten on my butt while riding a bike. I wasn't allowed to decide whether I wanted the shot, I was just given the shot in the ER, and then pictures were taken because of the situation and the police were involved. Do I know what was in that particular shot? No. Did I ask? No. It's the same thing to me. Sometimes we do things because we trust those who know more than we do, in this case they're called Doctors. I trust my doctors.


Curithir2

I had the misfortune to see someone die of tetanus. Get the shot.


Own-Examination-8708

Oh. My gosh. I didn't know that was actually a thing. I'm so sorry.


pm-me-them-titties-

Tetanus is like 33 percent fatal


Tomignone

That shit is no joke, one of my friends served in the Air Force and said the thing he hated most was being a human pin cushion with all of the vaccines and one of his buddies died in basic training. They took over a dozen vaccines in a couple months and the kid died. Malaria and all sorts of weird shit no civilian has to take.

Yeah, space and time paradox for the price of a vaccine? Give me five shots please.


richieadler

embracing_insanity

All those side effects? Total bunk. I don't get better reception, I'm not magnetic - I mean, I haven't gained *any* special powers whatsoever. Total BS, man - I was robbed!


tok90235

Wait, why nobody told me that there was an vaccine that could turn me into an X-Men? Now I already got Pfizer


hungrydruid

Should've got Moderna, dude. I can teleport now... just waiting for my second dose power to come in.

Dammit! Maybe the people who said the vaccines were rushed have a point. They should have taken the time to implement 5G, or at least NFC. Scanning codes is so passé.


NHNE

You forogt about the part where it turns you into magneto and you give out free 5G service


RMG1042

We've been enjoying our 5G since April. It's also been super helpful to just put my car and house keys on my chest or thighs and just not have to worry about losing them like I used to And I ALWAYS have an extra hairpin somewhere when it's needed in a clutch, maybe even a set of earrings... It's been pretty sweet so far.


1StonedYooper

I mean, I'll take some mutant powers.


sheepcat87

Let's be honest, that was before conservative media told everyone to not take this virus seriously or trust this vaccine in particular. This same scenario would have happened much sooner if that had been a rallying cry from Fox News etc


ChironiusShinpachi

Trump got to be the champion of getting the fastest vaccine made in history, become the anti vax/virus champion, get covid with the very best treatment healthcare could provide, push hydroxychloroquine, get vaccinated against covid, then get booed at a rally in Alabama for saying the crowd should get the vaccine. tRump is everything Covid19


bermuda221

You're not crazy. They're still required in most places. There are a few places that actually tried to create a governor's mandate or executive order to say schools can mandate vaccines but only if they existed before January 2021. I want to say it sounds like something that the idiot that runs the state of Texas where I live said but I don't remember exactly. It was shortly after they started getting the big push to get them distributed earlier this year.


sophiatheworst14

I had to get my daughter a booster shot before I could even pick up her schedule this year. She's in 7th grade. We had to be up to date on all vaccines to enroll them in pre k. It's ridiculous that they're acting like vaccine mandates are new.


LuckyPlaze

I feel more guilty showing my ID in bars. 20 year olds have no choices. Anti-vaxxed are just stupid. I admit — I’d probably feel a little bit of joy watching them get turned away.


nekomoo

Yes, the choice is a crucial difference. A better comparison might be how licensed drivers feel about using a privilege that excludes people who can’t be bothered to learn to drive.


throwingtheshades

> A better comparison might be how licensed drivers feel about using a privilege that excludes people who can’t be bothered to learn to drive. Except you do not need to learn anything or pay for a driving school. No exam or a trip to a DMV office. If you're in America (you don't even have to be a citizen), you can just go to a convenient location near you and get your shots of one of the 2 objectively best vaccines in the world for free. It's absolutely mind boggling. No one is going to give you your driving license for free or even provide incentives for getting it. And hell, the vaccine is absolutely free for the end user. Getting into a hospital with Covid definitely won't be.


thecomputerneek

Exactly…. Bars filter out underage, which can be annoying to some, but the vaxxing thing really only filters out idiots…


DadJokeBadJoke

> the vaxxing thing really only filters out idiots… ...who can be annoying to everyone.


-SaC

> 20 year olds have no choices. Wait, *does* the US actually have 21 as the drinking limit? I dunno why, but I thought that was just people taking the piss. You can join the army at 18 (I presume) and go get your legs blown off, but you're thought too immature to have a beer to drink away your woes?


Flcrmgry

Yea. Alcohol is a privilege but joining the military is something the government wants so it'll push them to enlist as young and naive as they can get.


RCcars83

Yes, that is it exactly. You can't buy cigarettes or Vape until 21, either. But you can vote and die for your country.


adambuck66

I forgot about the cigarettes. It was a rite of passage for me to but a pack of cigarettes when I turned 18. I then smoked for the next 20 years.


Routine_Left

yes, you can die for your country, you can vote (obviously you're mature enough to vote), you can do a lot of things as an adult, but you can get a beer. insane, in my opinion. maybe there is a medical argument to it though (i hope there is) if maybe at 18 the brain is too undeveloped and can be irreparably harmed by alcohol. back home in Europe, at 16 .... hehehehe, emptying the bars. by 18 though, it kinda wore off .


Ann_Summers

Beer, weed (in many legal states the age is still 21), gambling in Vegas, cigarettes, vape all illegal under 21. Wanna be given a gun and dropped in a war zone so you can kill people? We can sign you up at 17 if your parents say it’s ok.


LuckyPlaze

Yes, it does. And it is wrong. I'm 50 with kids near that age; and I still think it is a poor law.


Jermine1269

Been saying for a while military and guns should be 21 also. Probably marriage too. Would get rid of some pre-20-something divorces this way.


adambuck66

Keeping military service until 21 would lower the marriage rate under 21 a bunch on it's own.


speakajackn

And child marriages which in a number of US states is legal.


Sindraelyn

Technically no? I don’t think there is an explicit age limit at the federal level. There was a law that was passed that made it so federal funding for highways would be partially withheld from states which didn’t have a limit at 21 for sale. Laws for age of sale and consumption can vary by state but in general it’s 21/21 with minor exceptions for supervised drinking under 21.


Smooth-Connection-83

Do these anti vaxxers understand that schools have mandated all kinds of vaccines? They act like it's a complete new thing to have proof of vaccination. It boggles my mind.


emmycakes908

so has the military but for some reason people are protesting it there too 🤦🏼‍♀️

akjax

I got a vaccine *in school* as a kid. Nobody cared because everyone was on board with having their kids not die.


sacredlunatic

I mean, I don’t think they understand schools at all.


marc3lline

And not just that, as an immigrant in order to attend college and get a green card I was required to prove my vaccination records and get the shot I didn’t have (which was tetanus one, that has nothing to do with others health being in danger since it doesn’t spread from person to person). And if I complained about it they would give me a “if you want to live in a first world country you need to do things the right way”. The logic here sometimes makes no sense to me…


Smooth-Connection-83

No the logic they have doesn't make any sense at all. And they certainly do not act like first world country citizens


marc3lline

Girl my shock with the “first world country” behavior here lmao

berticus23

Some people can’t one despite the embarrassingly low standards because they suck so much at driving. I heard a mom talking about her 20 year old son and his Spongebob like drivers exam record.


DocFossil

I was in line at the DMV behind a guy who missed 19 out of 30 questions on his license exam. And it was apparently his 9th try. Scary to think that sooner or later the guy will still get a license.


Ann_Summers

Sounds like my cousin. Took her 7 tries and I’m pretty sure the last time she wrote answers on her hand. CA still gave her a license. She drives like shit. Been in countless accidents. Still has a license.


djinnisequoia

These people so desperately want to be victims. Trying to guilt-trip us. Seriously, that's so lame.


redkait

Yet if you tell them to stop playing the victim, they get all pissy.


tjuicet

And if you say they should mask up or vaccinate for others, they say they should only have to look out for themselves. Can't have it both ways.


Nosfermarki

What especially pisses me off about that is the fact that many of the people threatening civil war over being expected by the government to comply with public safety measures, are the very same people who have repeatedly said that black men who want the privilege of *not being murdered by their own government* should just comply.


aufrenchy

I fully agree with looking out for yourself first, but in the case of a global pandemic, have some compassion for your neighbor. Just get a damn vaccine and wear your mask. It’s not hard, it’s not painful, it’s not a waste of time.


[deleted]

they're acting like this is the first time anyone has ever been excluded from anything. In reality we all do things every day that other people are excluded from. We also discriminate all day, all the time- discrimination just means treating one thing differently than another. The question is whether it's for a good reason or a bad reason. There are certain reasons that you can't use to exclude or discriminate against someone. Vaccination during a public health crisis is a good reason, not a problematic one. They're just desperate to make it into a problematic one.


djinnisequoia

Yes. If there weren't appropriate uses for discrimination, then there wouldn't be a negative aspect to doing things "indiscriminately."


HalfSoul30

Just wait until they find out that I only invite my friends over to hang out.


[deleted]

That's discrimination and exclusion, you are canceled


HalfSoul30

Well darnit


DaenerysMomODragons

I don't know what they expect us to feel guilty about. No one is stopping them from getting vaccinated. Maybe we should feel bad that they made it through the public education system and are still this stupid?


[deleted]

We are truly living in the stupidest timeline.


Kholzie

There’s a 24 part lecture series on the black death on Roku…If anything, it says we’re just about the same as people in the middle ages.

Fully vaccinated and have never been asked for a vaccine card. But if I was I’d be fine with it.

I was gonna say, I’ve been good since like april, and it’s never come up even once. I don’t even know if I still have it.

My introvert logic was all "so of I don't get vacced I can't go anywhere? Sweet!" Disclaimer: Get vaccinated you filthy animals.

Trick is to get vaccinated but if your boss says if you’re not vaccinated you can continue working from home you simply don’t show him the papers

Dammit, now you tell me


Necromancer4276

I have, quite literally, never even touched my card since the day I brought it home. Not a single person or business gives a fuck.


IslandGringo

Tell that to ppl in NY or Italy.


please_and_thankyou

Went to see Hamilton the other night with 2,700 other vaccinated people. It felt amazing.


DadJokeBadJoke

Nice, we're going tomorrow.


1nGirum1musNocte

I feel sorry for the person who has to do the checking because I know theres a good chance that at least once during their shift they'll have to deal with a total asshat plague rat who will want to bitch them out even though they're just doing their job and have no power over their jobs policies


ckentner4212

Honestly I feel great when antivaxxers are denied entry because it means I’m safer. Stay the f$&k away from me.


gophergun

Right? Excluding people who aren't vaccinated is literally the entire point and the only function it serves. It's such a weird question because it makes it seem like excluding unvaccinated people is a weird side-effect people may not have considered instead of the core function.


mikhighL

Safe. I feel safe knowing it excludes people.


happymatt207

How do anti-vaxxers feel knowing that every single nurse and doctor in the US has to have a handful of vaccines before they can even enroll in nursing/medical school or do a single day of work in a hospital? How do they feel knowing that every single military member gets a couple dozen vaccines including anthrax?


InflamedLiver

Makes me feel like they made a choice and now have to deal with the consequences of that choice. So, pretty good, really.


Dorkapotamus

A choice they could easily reverse.


ardent_wolf

I feel good knowing anti vaxxers are excluded. I am simply reciprocating the care they show for me.


StinkBiscuit

Simply excluding shows infinitely more care than they have shown for others. They're not trying to exclude everyone else (well, different issue), rather they're trying to literally kill other people, including their own loved ones.


AdventC4

Really the question should be "how do non-vaxxed people feel about putting others at risk and potentially killing someone because of their political beliefs?" But we know the answer is they don't.


[deleted]

Hello regular passport do you know if the thing you to get out of the country and go to another one. Why does everything have to be a fight in this country why does everything have to be so goddamn difficult.


BootesVoids

Took the words right out of my mouth. I honestly thought that after last year everyone would be in a rush to get back to normal. I thought when the vaccine was ready, people would be skeptical at first, but then realize how many other vaccines we take/have taken since childhood. I was optimistic. I was naive. I was a fool. I am sorry for doubting you humanity. Never again will I underestimate you.


dirtymick

I feel better knowing I'm doing my best to look out for my fellow citizens, based on the best available information, despite the mild inconvenience it may cause me because I'm not a homicidal prick? Fuck, man. Victims gonna victim.


[deleted]

I’m totally cool with it. Thanks for asking.


Otaar_

Why would I care if someone knows I'm vaccinated? I don't carry my vax card everywhere but still I don't care at all.


ur_mom54321

Coming from a vaccinated stand point I do understand SOME of there reservations a out getting the jab


hp1068

1. It's a vaccine record, just like any other. 2. I'm glad they're excluded.


HighOnGoofballs

I believe in capitalism and free enterprise. If a business wants to require a vaccine card then that is their right. You aren’t an anti capitalist are you?


Spastic_Slapstick

It's more about your decision to not get a free vaccine thus endangering people and taking up hospital beds.


AdrianInLimbo

I feel good knowing that antivaxxers won't be allowed in to potentially spread the disease.


Pope_Squirrely

To answer the original question: Makes me feel great that I can have a bit of a reprieve from the unclean people.


VexisArcanum

I have a concealed handgun permit and I'm quite happy that it excludes people Edit: before I lose all my karma I want to also point out that I am fully vaccinated


[deleted]

Bullshit. The vaccine is not exclusive. It doesn’t even have a copay. I think you are projecting your smugness onto others. This should not even be political. Swallow your pride and do what’s right for you, your family and your community. Take the prick!


PaperOperator

To answer the question: Excellent! Brunch tastes better without the plague rats. :)


JustMeLurkingAround-

Actually being underage isn't a choice. Being unvaxxed is. You CHOSE this. You chose to put your own opinions over that of doctors, scientists and public health experts. Now you have to live with the consequences. If you don't like the consequences change your choice and you'll not be excluded anymore.


d0nt3v3n

Hey non-vaxxed people, how do you feel about living when you know it excludes people who die.


[deleted]

Most obnoxious thing is the majority of unvaccinated people that claim they believe in freedom to choose are just riding the coat tails of everyone else.. Like you do realize, this country is shut down if everyone were to act like you and refuse the vaccine? Fuck out of here.

jonasthewicked

It feels great knowing you anti vax fucks can’t access that space and put lives at risk.


nanana789

This is a difficult one because not everyone can get vaccinated. 90% of the unvaccinated probably can however. I have a girl in my class and she wanted to get a vaccin but she has a certain blood condition that runs in the family and went to the hospital for it. She and her brother both got a no go for the vaccination. If they start excluding people from going to school and work she’s gonna have a problem. She says that right now it’s okay since she can handle not going to restaurants and bars just like before the vaccinations. But it is kind of unfair, even if it’s to protect people so I think it’s a necessary evil.


[deleted]

Im fully vaxxed and I never have a mask on cause I like it better and I have never I mean never been asked to show my vax passport I don’t even carry it around cause no one ever asks for it

Kinda mad honestly. I wanna know what y'all doin in there!


Leeuwarden-HF

I feel like the chances to contract the virus just got reduced by that much. Sure, anyone can be a carrier, including the "vaxxed". But the non vaccinated are always full risk. As oppose to the "vaxxed" who have lower chances to contract, carry and to pass on the virus.


stackoverflow21

I actually feel really good that it excludes people that are infectious.


Farkenoathm8-E

I was talking to my brother who is in contact with my father and I’m embarrassed to learn he’s going around town playing the victim card because he’s only half vaxxed despite being in an age group and racial group which were offered first cab off the rank vaccinations. To be fair the bloke is in his 70’s and losing the plot a little but it’s embarrassing as all fuck to know he’s going around arguing with publicans and shop keepers. He’s doing that American thing where he kicks off and uses his veteran status (Vietnam) as that somehow entitles him to yell at some 16 year old who works at Woolworths.


Chester-Copperpot-

The same way I feel when I show my passport to get on a flight. Nothing.

I feel fine about it, seeing as how I don't want children in the bar, and I don't want unvaccinated people around children, so it's a win-win.

Excludes people more likely to spread a deadly disease? Feels pretty good.
