How Would Peter's Family Handle An Epidemic?

If Peter, Lois and the gang had to live through a pandemic, how do you think they'd deal with it? My guess is... not to well. You know Lois would do her best to keep her family safe, and Brian would make some sound arguments for social distancing and wearing masks (before not doing either when drunk).

But Peter and Chris wouldn't be able to follow the simplest rules, and while Meg would have the capacity, she'd cave to peer pressure to be cool without a mask. Stewie, naturally, would try to find some dastardly way to use it all to his advantage.

The Red Zone

For weeks, my county has been teetering on the edge of being in the red zone as our Covid-19 cases and death rates rise and people social distance and wear masks less and less. Our governor refuses to issue a mandate and at least half of our residents think it's a 'liberal hoax' thanks to Trump, so now we've got a mess on our hands.

Stranger Things fans are used to seeing their favorite stars in movies lately. From Enola Holmes to New Mutants to Ghostbusters, there's a Stranger Things kid in so many new pictures coming to the big screen or to streaming services.

Prizes for Party Games

Do you ever give out door prizes or prizes for the winners of party games at your events? This is a tradition in my family that enables us to get rid of things from our homes since we all bring things we want to get rid of as prizes!

This might seem more difficult during Covid times, but there are other ways to do this. How about posting pics of all the prizes and having people claiming them for porch pick-up at some point? You could also try buying gift cards or making donations in each others' names.
