bronado shelter 

Designated bronado-free safe havens. Examples of effective bronado shelters: libraries, farmers markets, museums, art installations, hipster-occupied coffee shops

Unlike tornado shelters, there's no universal wayfinding signage to guide you to safety, so emergency preparedness and education are key to ensuring your safety. Bronados form when a group of amped bros form together. Be on the lookout for visible warning signs, including but not limited to: drunken high fiving, fist pumping, backward caps, v-neck or popped collar shirts, excessive hair product and/or cologne. Audible clues include loud use of the words bro, champ and boss.
Good thing we saw that bronado shelter, otherwise we could've been subjected to high fives and found ourselves at a party with beer pong.

shelter in place 

The government telling people to stay home, stock up on rice and pasta and toilet paper. Shut the blinds and hide inside, and binge watch Netflix and video games for a while till the threat is gone. Its not very strict since you can technically still go out for “essentials” like toilet paper and pop tarts. Certain places stay open, but a lot of places close.
Bay Area government: “We are ordering people to shelter in place beginning Tuesday March 17, for the next 3 weeks in response to the Coronavirus pandemic sweeping the world”

Hysteric Public: “wtf?!? I need to go to Safeway and get all the toilet paper! Then wait in line at Costco for 4 hours to get all the Purell to fill a bathtub to disinfect myself and bleach to disinfect my stomach! (Jk, don’t do that please. Bleach kills, DO NOT DRINK BLEACH!)”
Concerned public: “So it’s like a quarantine? Are we allowed to leave our homes? What about our jobs? And the (insert something here) convention this weekend?”
Bay Area government: “Not a quarantine, you can leave your home for essentials. Businesses deemed essential like grocery stores and petCo (dogs have to eat too) will remain open. Restaurants will have to close and do takeout/deliver only. Healthcare workers will continue. All public gatherings of like 10 or more people will have to be canceled, sorry. Also if you have to go out, keep a distance of 6’ between yourself and other people. So try not to freak out”
