Oh, goody. My govidiot (Larry Hogan) created a mask mandate, so I don’t really see a choice going into the store. I proudly refuse to wear one outdoors — even if my govidiot mandated that, I would still refuse — and your reasoning gives me reason to continue NOT to wear one outdoors, even when I can’t avoid other people.
However, when I do wear one, I try to remember to inhale with my mouth and exhale through my now, which would hopefully keep most of the exhalation from escaping through the perpetually loose area around the nose and send it through the mask material instead to filter out some of the virus, should I be carrying it.
I don’t kid myself that a mask would protect me from catching it, and I would prefer to get the COVID sooner rather than later, though I do take other appropriate precautions, so that I could get it over with and be able to move freely about the country.
Exhale through my NOSE!!! ARRRRRRGH!!!
