We have a "celebrity chef" attempting to sell a flashing colored light machine that purportedly cures COVID19 for $15k. He is not under investigation for fraud I believe.

That's because the 'flashy thing' also erases all memory of buying the crap.

The only problem being that you have to swallow it and hold it in precisely the right orientation with the glottis for it to do any good.
And wouldn't ultra-violet work better?
Did they consider looking into the science of it, before trying to get their name on the list of coronavirus profiteers?

I saw it in the consumer TV programme "Kassa", when confronted with their strange claims they promised to rectify it

Highly appropriate wording, considering that it came out of a rectum -- might as well put it back.

Not me. However, I am sure my kids are.
Been extremely challenging keeping them from grazing in the kitchen. ugh. The grocery bills.
First world problems, I guess.

Perhaps you should install a lock on the fridge.

You should take the light bulb out of the fridge. It's obviously [the light] that's attracting you.

I've had the pleasure of experiencing the Texas sun firsthand a few decades ago. I'd say there's no way a native is getting a tan from a refrigerator lightbulb...

I'm betting on the light in the refrigerator turning itself off in disgust when the Texas tan opens the door.

I've considered Elaine Tan in other places, but not in the fridge.
Or is this a Green Lantern thing?

Nope. It was 80 here today, and I was outside pulling weeds and such. Nekid... 
Truthfully, I've spent most of the day in the fridge, trying to figure out why it suddenly won't get down to 40. I've moved critical items out to another fridge, and ordered parts that I think will help, but frankly, I'm not sure I can eat all this ice cream before the parts get here.

I know a teaspoon is for stirring tea, but who wants to stir tables?

It's the latest thing at formal events - instead of the host circulating among the tables, the tables circulate around the host.

(My apologies for doing this post in first-person plural)
With so many of us home and with time on our hands, we are finally getting to do those things we had always wanted to do. Tasted some new ones, as well.
How, then, do we return to normal when we started to fulfill some of those "someday" 's ?

I don't think anyone will return to "normal", ever. I think we will be living with this for the rest of our lives.
I am sure other "viruses" will show up too, in due time.

Now that it has become apparent that we are surrounded by obsessive toilet paper hoarders, I fully understand you yearning.

I guess people will just work from home more often. Both programmers and companies have seen that it's nothing wrong with working from home from time to time.

Until we have a vaccine, things will continue to be weird.
Once we have a workable vaccine, things will get back to normal.
The thing is that now, the virus is overwhelming the health system; people are still entering the system, and not getting out quickly enough.
But we cannot continue lock down until then, it is not workable in the short and medium term.
We will start opening some businesses, and see how it goes.
I'd rather be phishing!
