– Louise, shoot the radio!
The shot from the wine pistol and the car radio break down into the attached violent police car.
– Then the POLICE radio, Louise. . . Jesus!
They are desperate and flee from justice. But when a police officer stops them and the crisis is about to turn into a disaster, something even more unexpected happens. Suddenly, the two friends begin to behave radically differently. The dominant and powerful Louise acts confused and abandoned. Naive and affable housewife Thelma gets the role of problem solver. Using equal parts creativity and attitude, he unexpectedly takes control of the situation, while seizing the opportunity to catch some hardliner liners.
The last weeks The scene from the classic 1991 road movie “Thelma & Louise” quickly passed through me. For that very special moment, which shows hidden and unexpected sides of people, it seems to be happening all the time now in the new reality of the crown. The map is redrawn, backwards, black turns white and the people around us seem to have a more or less changed personality. Wonderfully, we consider a Thelma who becomes Louise and a Louise who becomes Thelma. File the bowls that turn into berries and grim twigs teeming with life.

Very logically it also changes The collective’s preferences, and the change of status, or rather the reversal, that occurred on the covid-19 track is puzzling and interesting. Many have already noticed the case of Hollywood, the fall of artists and celebrities from the stars. But they are not only those affected by the so-called return of crowns. Even the most mundane characters who are automatically surrounded by status and respect are suddenly persona non grata.
Perhaps the most obvious example is the character “Cool Sports Slalom Skater from town“You know, those who, after sports vacation, were considered a walking infection. We also have the ‘Globetrottern’, which has always just returned from any paradise and is now chosen at home with a specially chartered plan, whose Impressive tan can fade in quarantine and without audience.
Just enough to hit This change in status also means “Saluhallstammisen”, that is, the flirtatious and vibrant person of over seventy who is now forced to accept that the authorities’ restrictions also apply to housing in Östermalm.
Not to mention the Easter carving, a figure previously very popular in childhood, who was condemned by the prime minister at the best time of broadcast.
But the crisis has not only stolen the brilliance of the heroes of the past, it has also given us new ones. The spotlight now shows people whose claim to fame is a solid knowledge of the facts rather than the ability to violate the lifestyle of ten-year-olds. Therefore, the new sex symbols of the Crown era are called Anders Tegnell and Taha Alexandersson instead of Robert Pattinson and Gal Gadot.
Every day, a satisfying new order is also applied where all the underpaid people who are now on the front lines and who are fighting the crown virus receive love and respect (yes, anything but money).
But gradually we see also more unsupported characters that received a crown status flurry: eg “Tråkmånsen” (“Thank you, I’d rather sit at home with a good book”), “Nörden” (“Thank you, I’d rather sit at home and analyze statistics” ), “Waste” (“Thank you, I’d rather get food from the tavern and make a insert for the local business community “) and, above all, Susanne” Kniip “Lanefelt, a 73-year-old pioneer who has now been revived with the return of the girl from the TV gym.
We are, for the most part, happily unaware of our own personality of crisis and possible change of state. Not everyone is lucky enough to have an internal Thelma to collect. But you can always wait.
