“Ma-ma-my Corona” - insensitive, not funny. Mods, please change this. People are dying, others are terrified. ---

Please don’t. Gallows humor is a normal, long-storied part of the human response to tragedy. We’re all in this together. No one’s punching down. ---

A bad pun is going to make people more terrified? ---

I agree that it’s not very funny, which the real sin here. I don’t find it insensitive. I welcome the attempt at humor. ---

What’s this in reference to? The _My Sharona_ song parodies? They’re not the only ones, and I agree, humor is important as a coping mechanism. Edit: I see it’s the tagline of the forum. Nothing to see here, move along. ---

I vote no on the extended edit window. I can’t get many pages to load now. Making the hamsters work harder will make things worse. ---
