Default Advice vs lecture

I took this a little different than some other folks. Rather than an attack or lecture, I took it as advice or " food for thought " for going forward into an uncertain future. While I believe this could have been phrased differently, the basic message is (IMO ) to always try to have a LITTLE extra on hand of things you really need. I try to do this already, thus our self isolation hasn't been as stressful as it has been for many. Stay safe and well and try to be a little more understanding of others who may not express themselves the same as you.
