Nations across the world are dealing with reopening businesses with guidances to keep people safe.
One example, reported by the Wall Street Journal, is Japanese theme parks reopening — while making it clear they don’t want people screaming on roller coasters because they “might expel a burst of virus-carrying droplets with a mid-ride utterance.”
Executives for Fuji-Q Highland recently rode the Fujiyama roller coaster — with masks on and without screaming once — for a video that ended with the advisory to “please scream inside your heart.”
That wonderful turn of phrase immediately took off on social media, with people embracing it as a sort of 2020 mantra:
