6. Dress up like a Dalek and run around your village (in England) warning people to “self isolate” (or maybe they will be exterminated?) Not really at home, I guess, unless you consider the Dalek’s shell the home of the mutant alien inside of it. Here’s an article from Sky News with more information about […]
