#1 Two-mask dispensation, please? Hate to think I wasted several minutes yesterday practicing casually donning two at once (one facing forward, one aft). Hmm. Maybe add frown and smile?

#2 I ran into a guy with 2 masks yesterday. I could not understand a damn word he was mumbling.

I am waiting for the first a$$hat on the internet who brags about getting every type of COVID vaccination.

#3 Just think how much better we'd be doing if Trump had said, about last March, "NEVER USE A PLASTIC BAG AND TWO FEET OF DUCT TAPE. IT'S NOT EFFECTIVE!"

#4 ^^ But it's effective when used by democrats, they don't get covid (if they didn't already have it.)

There's this nasty side effect though.

#5 We have two masks, do I hear three? Three? Yes, three masks for the gentleman in the corner.

Now I have three, do I hear four? Four? Yes, four masks for the lady in the front row.

Now I have four masks, do I hear five? Five?

#6 While standing in a check out line with a mask around my chin, a man in front of me told me to pull my mask up. I responded you're 6 feet away and are wearing a mask, you've got nothing to worry about. Cowed, he turned away. In retrospect, what I should have said very loudly was. OMG, ARE YOU CONTAGIOUS? YOU SHOULDN'T BE OUT OF YOUR HOUSE.

#7 Mr Warthog is sure to be happy and proud you spoke up.

You'll gett'm again.

Plenty of Mr. Karens around now a days.

#8 I'm holding out for lamp shades, but saran wrap is the only way to be sure.

#9 Was in a shop recently...they treat people like adults...about 75% of customers wearing masks...no idiot Karens yelling, and no shop employees giving a hoot, either. It's sad that this is the way it should be, but we take things like this as massive victories anymore.

#10 Local initiative to masquerade, initiators' politics would not surprise you, even have yard signs, a lotto game with prizes, got the social peer pressure thing going.

Pitch person comes into my place of business, starts giving me the spiel...after removing the mask. We're we anti-social distanced? Barely, but when my resting bullshit face comes out, its no sale. "If the whole community would just mask up, we can beat this!" spew rite in the entrance.

Of course everyone yells now to project through the mask, so at that distance, mask off, might as well cough on me.

Hypocrites are liars and cheats.
