TAKE YOUR FUCKING MASK OFF.

I'm being fucking erudite, and they fucking know it. The only reason they get all mardy and whingy about it is because they know they look like knobs walking round in masks, and they're secretly jealous and angry that the non mask wearing people are standing up and being counted for their common sense beliefs. Take the fucking masks off and lets get back to smiling at each other again.
 
Went to the local pub this evening, put mask on at the door, was given a table, mask off.

Table service only, girl took the orders, fetched and carried no issue, but a largely dispiriting experience, tried to chat with others at (not too) adjacent tables but they behaved as if a little chat and mild banter would give them covid.

Thanked the landlord for making the effort but not great. Try again at the weekend.
 
I'm pleasantly surprised at how many wearing masks that I talk to agree with my crazy conspiracy theories and anti mask views. What I don't get is why they keep wearing the fucking masks.
 
Normal people have got to get out and talk to people, help them see the madness, they know it they just aint getting confirmation of it. We need to take the masks off and talk to each other.
 
If people want to wear masks then let them. It's their choice Why be so aggressive about it? If you don't want to conform, but feel by not wearing a face covering that you are looking like an over confident selfish nob, surely that's your real problem you need to come to terms with?
 
A genuine question for the anti-maskers...

How are you living life at the mo?

1. Are you wearing a mask in the places you're expected to anyway, but then trying to look rebellious by whingeing about it here?

2. Or are you not wearing one at all when you're expected to, & lecturing those that work in shops or other shoppers etc, that ask you to ?

3. Or are you faking a health condition when you walk into a shop etc, "excusing" yourself from wearing one?

4. Or do you have a genuine health condition that stops you from wearing one, but you still whinge about folk that are happy to do so, on here?

5. Or are you not going out at all, hence not needing to wear a mask, but still whingeing about it here?

6. Or is it something else?
 
Mistryman. My stance on this. Covid 19 stopped being an issue about 5 months ago. The mask and the other 'rules' are there as a prop to the government, who want to keep the fear going.

The reasons may be financial or political, quite possibly both, but it is nothing to do with public health.

I'm answering these questions seriously, which is more than they probably deserve.

So, in order.

1. I mostly avoid any places that require a mask, so obviously have not been very far in the last few weeks. Don't make a fuss, but make my views clear if it comes up in conversation.

2. I would not lecture anyone, not my place. I comply with the rules, but rarely need a mask.

3. I have Tachycardia which would make me exempt. For short periods I use a mask and manage, for longer periods I would have to claim exemption, though so far, I have not put myself in a position where that has been necessary.

4. I don't whinge. I have a viewpoint that I might express but only if asked.

5. All answered above.

6. Seriously considering earplugs to block out the sanctimonious.
 
I don't wear a mask, if a shop asks me to wear one I tell them I'll shop somewhere else. Only had one shop ask if I had a mask, Urban Outfitters, I said we didn't and we are happy to leave if it's a problem. If I get in a conversation with other shoppers, I'll say what I think, I'm pleasantly surprised how many people agree.
 
What I don't get is that where this shit allegedly started from they've been wearing masks for years, didn't stop it spreading like wildfire with all those videos on YouTube of folk dropping like flies in the streets.

I think wearing a mask is complete bollocks. Local shop I don't wear one. 90% of the folk using it don't.
Large stores I wear one simply because I don't want some shop assistant who's probably on minimum wage having to ask me about wearing a mask. It's not their job so why put them in an uncomfortable position to challenge me. They don't get paid enough for that.

The principles are strong here then.

But it stopped being an issue 5 months ago because we weren't out & about, like we are. It's not now, is it?

Yeah, I'm a man of the people. Wear what you want, you can wear a pink fucking tutu for all I care. I do object to folk who have a pop at none mask wearers though. Like they talk as if they're the new Stephen Hawkins on all matters covid because they saw a graph on the BBC but then pack little Tristan and Jemima off to school in this deadly pandemic.

What has a shop assistants probable wage got to do with it?
Shop assistants have to put up with insufferable fcukwits every day.

The variation in experience is striking isn't it. In our local shop (v small place independently owned and operated) 90%-plus people wear masks, I have only seen one person not doing so. It didn't particularly register with me at the time and as far as I know nothing was said.

It stopped being an issue because that is how virus infections work. The 'curves' are classic, a bit sharper than normal due to government policy on care homes and the lies consistently written on death certificates at that time.

The crowds on the beaches around us were huge, you have probably seen the photos, no increase in hospitalisations, very few deaths. It,s a complete con and you have fallen for it.

Because the higher up the ladder you go you're paid to put up with/ manage insufferable fuckwits every day. The low paid workers shouldn't have to. So I tend not to join the insufferable fuckwits and respect the job they do.
 
There are very few masks in Sweden. There has been no lock down and very little signs of a second wave despite testing for all being readily available. Yes higher incidence rates than Norway and Denmark but with schools, shops, restaurants and pubs being open from the start that is to be expected. Off to a ' Reggae Got Soul' night tonight and will be happily be able to drink to 1.00am.

Social distancing is observed without government intervention, businesses remain open and people are happy. If you want to wear a mask it's personal choice.
