I had my second recent mask Nazi encounter the other day, It was almost funny I had stopped at a goodwill store and got in line, the only cashier handed me a mask, I looked at it like wtf is this and she said you have to wear that.
I said umm no I have no idea where that mask has been.
the lady in front of me decided that there was going to be a violent confrontation and went in to full crisis negotiator mode. So sweet.
I handed the mask back to the cashier and said that if her mask was not good enough to protect her from my healthy self maybe she could take the one I just handed back to her and put it on her face cause Fauci would approve and we could both be happy.
I felt bad for poor crisis negotiator who understood that masks were security theater and did nothing, but she should have not inserted herself, I was as always super polite to everyone.
I had a similar encounter a while back. The clerk at the grocery store rang up a cart full of purchases before confronting me about my lack of a face diaper.
“Sorry, don’t use them” I replied.
The clerk insisted and then seeing that I didn’t have one, picked one from a stack on the counter. I managed my best “sour face” look and shook my head no.
“I don’t know where those have been” (seems like a popular line ;’}
Still she insisted so I took the diaper and held it up in front of (but several inches away from) my nose and smiled at her. Seeing that she wasn’t going to win, she completed the transaction and probably prayed that I would never return.
