    You're missing the "I just want to walk into the store in peace and not be asked to leave".

    I do quite often w/o a mask on and am left alone. I've never been asked to leave..

  • Again on the bike trail today Cuyahoga Valley I saw at least 6 idiots riding their bicycles outside with their fucking mask on.

    After the ride we went to a great big farm market, really cool place, just packed with people shoulder to shoulder oh, just about everybody picking up every piece of fruit or vegetable and putting it back down after inspection. But everybody was wearing a mask. Arbitrary bullshit

    Again, like I've said from the beginning.. If this had been a true pandemic, there would be no better vehicle of transmission than currency.

    Neat.   Well I can't speak to that experience so I'll just keep playing it cool and low key.

    The wife and I were running errands yesterday and stopped at a local dollar store. 

    Unfortunately we only had one mask in the car, so the wife told me to wear it inside the store, and she was going inside without one.

    We no sooner walked through the front door, and the cashier (wearing a mask around her neck) told my wife she couldn’t enter without wearing a mask.

    The wife went out to the car while I did the shopping.

    When I went to the checkout, the cashier (still wearing the mask under her chin) felt apologetic and said “I’m not being mean...I just have to keep everyone safe”.

    I reminded her that a surgical mask provided as much protection as the mask she was wearing that was keeping her Adam’s Apple warm.

    Then I pointed out she was handling everything I purchased, and she seemed confused by my comments.

    I went outside and told the wife of my conversation with her, she said “that’s why she’s a cashier at a dollar store”.

    You also need to understand I don't live in Ohio. Our local ordinances pertaining to masks are probably bit less stringent than yours.

    Well, shit.  Now I am jealous. 

    Admittedly the mom and pops places are pretty cool about it, especially when they're slow.     Went back home for the weekend to see family and hit the local diner before the breakfast rush.  Servers didn't seem to care that we walked in and sat in a booth with only half of our group using masks.   Might have been 10 people total in the restaurant at that point.

    I get chain stores and the like being under the microscope.  Smaller places though, not so much.   It's nice when we see our better judgement being used and not attempt to be over-zealous. 

  • I really don’t consider it rebellious not wearing a mask.

    less and less people are subjecting themselves to such an odd request to wear a peice of cloth on there face.

    making a scene is not a good idea.  Just don’t wear one.  Respect business owners though that do approach you, unless you have a medical issue that prevents you from wearing one.
     

    if you are an anti masker lookin for confrontation than you make everyone look bad.

    i don’t wear one and no one gives me a hard time.  I don’t rub it in anyone’s face either.

  • I try to use common sense. If I am about to enter a bigger outlet (tho I do try to avoid them) like a grocery store or a Lowes/Home Depot I carry a mask with me  because the 6' thing isn't gonna happen in there. If someone were to say something (hasn't happened yet) then depending how they approached me, I would either oblige them or tell them to keep their distance .. Smaller outlets, it's never an issue

    See, our mask ordinance (probably like yours) is not enforceable if you read deep..  I know people that keep it on their phones to show mask Nazis when need be.  I'm lucky, because of my appearance, people don't fuck with me, nor do I with them. 

       I DO however wear my mask into my Bank!!   I've always wanted to wear a mask into a bank.. ?  Back a month or so ago it was like playing Whack a Mole trying to find a BOA branch open around here. I have to do multiple deposits a week.. Well, I had to visit a BOA branch I'd never been in way out east one Monday. So I strolled in with my black pants, black tank top, black hat, black mask, black small duffel bag (full of cash) and sunglasses.. 😁   I wanna tell ya, EVERY head at every desk popped up and the looks on their faces were priceless...  Tellers too, customers,, everyone!! ?

    Tell me you've never wanted to do that ?

  • Well, I won't be using this BOA branch for a little while.. I generally use that branch but was at one out on the island at about the time this happened. ?

  • I've actually seen two people on separate occasions by themselves wearing a fucking mask on the bike trail. I shit you not. I'm not saying you should throw a fit in a store or a restaurant because they asked you to wear one but even you Democrats have to admit it gets ridiculous. No matter how much you love Biden.

    Some people wear it to set a good example, some people wear one because they are at a higher risk than others. I wear one on the bike trail when I ride just to keep bugs out of my face. For the people say "it's my body, it's my choice" when defending themselves for not wearing one, the same can be said for people who do. It's my choice and I will wear one if I want.

    You can do whatever you want. As far as wearing a mask when you're riding a bike or riding in your car alone it makes you look like an idiot. If you do that then you look like an idiot too. And the only people that you would set an example for are other idiots.

    The next day of the trail we saw probably at least six people wearing them. Just for the record they were among the people crammed into the Farmers Market asshole to Elbow picking up every piece of fruit in the place. But hey they had their masks on.

    I'm not bothered much by people who take extreme precautions, even if I don't. And of course you can choose to look like a fool.

    I told you why I wear a mask when I ride, to keep bugs out of my face. I only put my mask on in the car when I pull up to a drive thru window. People should not be calling other people idiots because they don't understand why somebody chooses to wear a mask.  People with compromised immune systems should always wear them.
