So, who's wearing a mask ?

[WD Forte]

Not me,
I heard a lady in the queue outside bargainboozbinz
say she read on facebook that that they cause oxogin denial and make
the 5G devil rays collect around the face giving you bad aids face cancer.
fuck that

What's the big deal about wearing a mask?

Is it just vanity or do people actually believe the nonsense about oxygen being blocked?

[WD Forte]

It's all over social media they got pictures and everything
so it must be true

I wore a mask in Lidl today. No problem.

It is all very silly - no matter what 'the science' says, if we haven't been wearing masks for the last 4 months, wearing them now is going to make little difference except by making people feel as if we are all in it together. A bit like clapping on a Thursday.

I don't want to wear a mask because I don't like having things over my face. It's very close to being a "thing". I only close my bike helmet if it's raining or I'm going so fast I can't see without it.

I also have an enormous beard which means normal surgical masks get pushed up onto my lower eyelids.

I do have a P3 respirator which fits properly but see point 1 and it's hella sweaty so I only wear it if I'm grinding/painting.

Meh, I'm going for the bank-robber style bandanna tied loosely above my nose and behind my head.

Going about town today looked like an Amish convention because everyone had black fabric facemasks hooked onto their ears and down under their chin like a strap-beard.

So I said to the cashier 'Yes I'll wash them next time'

I was going to go with the Buff neckerchief thing but then saw a pack of 5 face masks which were a reasonable price. I’ve only seen them in this one shop though, which seems odd. Not worn one yet although I had one in my pocket when I went to the tip, just in case. Turns out a mask wasn’t required but I should have booked an appointment to visit the council refuse & recycling centre.

We have to wear masks at work all day except during breaks.
We get issued 2 per person per shift, standard type, white one side, blue the other.
I've been driven to using a 4 inch strip of material with a button sewn on either end to join the ear loops around the back of my head because the loops make the backs of my ears all hurty.

Went to the Kwik-e-Mart today, pulled my t-shirt up over my mouth and nose, don't think I gave Covid to anyone.

[WD Forte]

These people on that interweb tell it like it is
They want to throw Gods wonderful breathing system out the door
now the dirty foreign bastards
Its a conspiracy!
Proof if any were needed cept for that woman at the end who probably
took a bung to say that and whipped the mask off after she was out the door
and spending the money on fags, lottery tickets 'n shit

I think masks are racist. I'm not really sure why, but I'm sure they must be. I think they are being forced on us by the white heterosexual male patriarchy. This gives me the right to break into shops and take mobile phones and Nikes, which will solve the problem.

I have a fetching black mask rather like the one that nice Mr Trump wears, it's a single cloth layer, i can't say i think it does much good, but rules is rules

[Kawasaki Jimbo]

Don't get me wrong, I do think a mask is better than nothing judging by the inability of the average shopper to respect the social distancing guidance.

It was the clamour to criticise the government's approach which made them change their advice, not the science. Once the government u-turns, those same critics argue the other way, or find a new complaint. As The Artist said, it's all politics.

They've been required in Spain the whole time in shops but inexplicably their infection rate is still going up again.
People are constantly fiddling about with them which means touching your face close to eyes and mouth which is exactly what you shouldn't be doing.
Then they take off what's essentially a used handkerchief and touch things you might handle next.

I'm going to wear a mask and my 'I can't breathe' T-shirt.

Then i'll be allowed to take it off for fear of me calling people rasis
