Survey: How Americans Socialize During Quarantine

What a month. In the wake of this pandemic, nothing's been spared. We don't shower or wear jeans anymore. We don't hug old people. We feel safer walking in the middle of a street than on a sidewalk. And when's the last time anyone made out with a stranger?

Few things have been ravaged like our social lives. But from the ashes, new forms emerge. Millions of Americans now take to laptops and phones to hang and drink together. Last week, we surveyed 2,000 people to get the scoop on these virtual parties and happy hours. Who's doing them? How often? What makes them suck? And what's the go-to background on Zoom? You want it? We got it right here.
