  • AMERICA: Oh my god! Coronavirus! What should we do?
  • CALIFORNIA: Shut down your state.
  • AMERICA: Wait… what? Why?
  • CALIFORNIA: Because 40 million people live here and we did it early, and it’s working.
  • ALABAMA: Whoa… whoa… let’s not be hasty now. The president said that this whole coronavirus thing is a democratic hoax.
  • CALIFORNIA: He also said that windmills cause cancer. Shut down your state.
  • TEXAS: But the president said that we only have 15 cases and soon it’ll be zero.
  • CALIFORNIA: The president can’t count to fifteen. Nor even spell it. Shut down your state.
  • NEW JERSEY: Us too?
  • CALIFORNIA: Yes, you guys too. Just like when Christie shut down the bridge, but it’s your whole state.
  • FLORIDA: But what about all these kids here on spring break?? They spend a lot of money here!

  • LOUISIANA: But wait let’s have Mardi Gras first. It entertains people.
  • CALIFORNIA: It also kills them. Shut it down.

  • OKLAHOMA: What about the tigers?
  • CALIFORNIA: What about a dentist. Shut it down.

  • PENNSYLVANIA: But big coal.
  • CALIFORNIA: But big death. Shut it.
  • WEST VIRGINIA: But we were the last state to get coronavirus!
  • CALIFORNIA: And don’t make us explain to you why that was. Shut it down.

  • CALIFORNIA: SHU… ok fine, do what you want.
