They state the obvious.

It’s not a bad look. Bonnie and Clyde.

Fauci probably knows this, and that’s why he takes his mask off when he thinks he can get away with it. But he wants you to wear it all the time.

I have my system for this. The other day we needed a Target run. Walked in with tube mask up, pulled it down as soon as I was walking with my cart, and went about my business. No one said a thing or gave me a second look.

(The sign on the door says “mask required to enter”.

I followed the rule.

I only wear one for a little over an hour a week and it drives me crazy! I don’t wear one at work and I rarely go into stores because they are required.

I’m saving money like crazy though.

When the mask is on, I can feel my mood deteriorating by the minute.

It’s like I’m wearing a horcrux on my face.

“psychological discomfort?”

Maybe for those that already have a psychological disorder.

Yesterday I had to go into a bank and had to stop outside the door to put on a mask. As I did, I looked inside and saw one of the tellers give a me a real concerned look.
I’m surprised we haven’t heard of shootings at mom and pop stores when some masked loud mouths enter.

It’s really weird. I can wear a mask and even a cartridge respirator while working with hazardous chemicals or heavy dust with no issues.

But, slapping on a completely useless fashion mask for a jaunt to Walmart makes me absolutely sick. My heart rate rises, it’s difficult to breathe, my glasses steam up and I am perpetually angry.

It’s because the mask is not a symbol of safety. Instead it is nothing more than a yellow star, a symbol of repression and government control.

Thus, I wear one very infrequently.

I’m a complete hypocrite though. I’m helping to run a weeklong summer camp and just ordered $400 worth of Buff masks for all of the kids. I have no expectations that they will be worn. We spent the money just to be able to say that we provided them, useless as they may be.

I wear a thin single layer of gauze when absolutely required.

Oh, so that’s why mask wearers are heroes. It’s the sacrifice, for the common good. Comrades in arms.

Well, then, that’s why they want us to wear them! To be miserable, and, they think, vote for biden. The mask orders will expire right after the election, no matter who wins.

When medical staff took part in a study, some wore N95 and the rest wore the fabric masks given often given to patients who are ill and coughing in waiting rooms. Both groups experienced the same rate of influenza with an statistically insignificant difference between them . So the "best masks" performed as well as the "regular" masks.

I didn't need any research to know that.
Anyone with common sense should know that covering your mouth and nose (main avenues of oxygen intake) for long periods of time in this sweltering heat, was going to make you very sick. But hey, if the far left lunatics want to put themselves out of business by suffocating themselves, who am I to complain?

Masks seem to bring out existing psychological problems. If you have healthy lungs and an adequate hemoglobin levels, there shouldn’t be any problem wearing one as long as you aren’t trying to exercise in it and thus short changing yourself of oxygen.

Maybe the deep seated problem with masks is due to blanket suffocation as an infant.

And just as I’d become convinced that a mask was a miraculous cure for all diseases. I’m so disappointed. Do I need a sarc tag?

In a sheet metal shop, the guys in the grinding room wear N95 masks 8 hours a day. Doesn’t seem to bother them. 3M spends millions on research when designing masks, as does the fedgov in certifying them. Same with paint respirators which are also heavy after an 8 hour day - btdt. Now all these homemade cloth masks are a different story.
