F masks. Damn sheep to the slaughter. The damn deaths, cases, positive results are all max BS. It’s a total and all out war on the election and the citizens of this country. Russia collusion part 2

What if you bump into someone and they don’t keep their damned mouth shut? Would that someone go home unhappy?

My husband is a mask fanatic. I hate them and usually have it hanging around my left ear when we’re sitting and talking. My husband always asks me to put it on when he visits me (long story) and says I’m not putting it on correctly because I leave my nose open. :). But when we go for walks, I take it completely off.

And thanks for posting this but I am so sick of masks and Covid. I’m sure we all are.

I wear a face shield and a mask. But I got a shot from the side.

I prefer not to get Covid until this thing mutates to a lesser version

I prefer not to risk my health and my finances

but you can only do so much when someone acts like that with a reckless disregard for those around

however, i made sure the incident was documented for future reference

We covered this back in March.

There is a fool-proof solution.

Start coughing like you are sick!

Let then run away from you. :-)

When we nuke the East and West coasts (just to be sure), I’m afraid certain Fearpers will have to be left behind. They have been subverted by the mask.

We’ve got provisions, and lots of beer, but there will be no face masks on the New Frontier.

Are you Joseph Stalin?
And is this Stalinist Russia?
You try that sh*it and you are liable to get your stupid head bashed.
People have been shot already over crazy mask Nazis trying to impose their nonsense on other people.

‘So cling to your masks if you like but as the idiots in the news media like to say, I’ll go with the science.’

speaking reasonably to the poster to whom you responded will accomplish nothing but your losing a third of your total IQ quotient...

That would depend on how far the offendinista wished to take it wouldn't it?

And I can point you to molecular experts that understand Brownian motion who do say they help lessen the viral load.

One thing you can do is raise an eyebrow.

“speaking reasonably to the poster to whom you responded will accomplish nothing but your losing a third of your total IQ quotient...”

About the same as I would lose due to O2 deprivation wearing a mask..........

‘I prefer not to get Covid until this thing mutates to a lesser version’

so you are going around assuming everyone you run into at a supermarket has this virus...? has it ever occurred to you how unlikely that is...?

also, if you see someone with a mask, but with the nostrils free to breathe, do you feel the urge to call the manager and give that person the business about ‘proper mask etiquette’...?

Same here. The stores make us wear one. I have to eat you know. It’s a minor inconvenience,. But, I feel real bad for all the people that have lost their jobs. Government has no right to close businesses.

ou can’t wear a mask, it’s on you to keep your distance from other people. Your health problems don’t give you the right to risk other people’s health.

If your mask is so effective why do you care if someone else is not wearing a mask? You should be safe either way, no?
If you feel so fragile why don't YOU keep your darn distance?

I know someone who said

“I think I have been exposed to Covid” while outside at his house.

The walker who didnt want to stay 6 feet away from him shot off like a rabbit

It shows the mindset. Why couldn’t that walker understand that any person could very well be an asymptomatic carrier.

I dont get close to people when I shop.

I am there first thing when they open and I get out.

Your beliefs mean nothing to me.

It is all well and good to say you wont get it..until you do.

Nanny state BS. Can’t people just mind their own business and leave other people alone to make their own decisions. This is like the smoking ban/issue in restaurants. Go/no go. Who cares? Besides, I promise I won’t sneeze on you, or piss in your Corn Flakes. 😆
