I was happy to greet a new employee today at work, a young kid with a bright future. He wore a mask into the office, I guess it makes sense if you're going to go somewhere new where you don't know the culture.

Anyhow, he was informed the mask was optional, and he promptly took it off. Literally no one in our office wears a mask or social distances.

It's nice, and it's not something I should be appreciating, but here I am.

These are dark times.

It disgusts me seeing everyone walking outside with masks on. There are even people running with them on. What is the TV telling these morons that makes them think masks are useful outside, let alone inside? They act like they are walking through toxic air, when the mask isn't even meant to protect them anyways.

The TV is telling them they'll get arrested if they don't wear one!

I’ve had the police called on me many times for trying to buy shit without a mask. Luckily the response times are abysmal.

Speaking of toxic air - I had some 3M acid filters for a concrete etching project and one thing I accidentally noticed was that if I had the mask on for a couple minutes (before even opening or messing with any chemicals) and took it off, I could smell all the chlorine and in the air.

It smelled like I was inhaling pool water... just from the air.

That being said, wearing a surgical mask unless you are in an operating room is basically going full retard.

No sarcasm here but you're saying a mask (is it a respirator?) that's actually designed to block particles actually works?

peterstrzoked 2 points ago +2 / -0

Yes, it was a 3M half face respirator - the kind with two ports , one on either side of your mouth that you attach filter cartridges to.

I didn’t have it fit tested or anything but I was clean shaven. It was the real deal though - you could stick your face in a bottle of muriatic acid (not that I would advise that) or a tray of paint thinner and not smell anything. I was working with 35% HCl for the etching and I used the same respirator for a painting project with a bunch of paint thinner

The cartridges I bought for the etching project were for acid gas (6003 or 6006 I think?). The respirator came with some of those pink n95 particulate filters but I never used them.

I’m not scientist, doctor, or expert, but if they would have told us from the beginning that we all had to shave and wear fit tested respirators from the beginning to stop the virus, that would have at least been believable. I wouldn’t have thought it was worth it in the case of the China virus, but I would have at least believed that a respirator might work.

Again, I’m not a scientist, maybe the wufru is so much smaller than an HCl molecule that even a respirator wouldn’t stop it, but to try and convince me that a piece of cloth loosely strapped over my face with gaping .5-1cm holes around the side where the air freely flows in and out is going to do anything seems absurd to me.

Even a respirator; which basically has a rubber gasket that is form fitting to your face is completely worthless if you have facial hair. How much more worthless should these stupid face diapers be?

But then again, I’m just an ignorant racist so what the fuck do I know.

I have one of those too and they definitely work just like that. I've had the same sort of experience.

Our cloth masks and even the "medical" masks to almost nothing to nothing. Sure, I suppose it would be a little beneficial for someone to catch their sneeze in the mask but other than that the fit is so bad the air just goes through every gap.

It's bizarre how our culture is so anti-truth that telling people this makes them angry. The masks we wear are only safety blankets.

That's what they think: toxic air. Sooooo many people don't have the first clue about real science. What I mean is that people think there is an even distribution of virus throughout the air and even a single virus will make you sick.

I was waiting for someone after dark in the parking lot of an apartment complex. No one around. Saw a lady walking by herself wearing a mask going to get her mail. I was maskless and she gave me a wide berth.

Next time I'm going to start shaming them. Shaming works on stupid people.

I work at a super liberal company and I have to wear a face diaper when I’m around people. I get so excited when people take their mask off. I’ve been written up a few times for not wearing a mask but fuck it. I’ve been in the shit everyday since March 2020 and still have yet to even catch a fuckin cold. I eat out everyday to help local small businesses, leave my house and go to work everyday and I do not saturate my hands disinfectant. I just wash my hands after using the bathroom that’s probably it. Call me dirty but I probably have a better immune system than most liberals. In times like this it’s great to see other people who aren’t afraid of other humans.

You aren’t kidding. The one good libtarded friend I have wears the double mask and all and he is ALWAYS complaining about some type of problem. I try to tell him he needs to boost his immune system but I’m just a dumb Conservative.

Appreciate it.

Some employers that shall remain nameless have decided to virtue signal hard enough to mandate masks as essential ppe regardless of any laws or state actions.

Wait, I am retarded because none of us are sick, have been sick, or know any one who is sick?

I am retarded because I live in a low density population area with almost zero recorded deaths, and zero deaths under the age of ~80?

You can't have kids because you can't figure out which hole to stick it in you fucking cuck.

At least we stand for something, all you can do is get on your knees. You best swap out your cum rag once a day, its getting mighty dirty.

You're here replying to everyone, causing a stir. I wouldn't dream of banning you. I want you to have your voice.

Know this though, your kind gets the shit kicked out of them by people who've had enough.

For real? Look for a different job, try to acquire new skills to change into a different field.

Move away from the city, those places are trash and are not worth living in. What's the benefit? Oh I earn more money and spend 3-5 times more on living expenses, but it's OK I like the smell of shit in the streets and vagrants everywhere.

I hope you are not working fast food and stuck near an endless stream of worthlessness.

Wrong! The reason you won’t have kids is because your wife’s bull won’t allow it! He did tell me he got you a Switch for Christmas though, so that should keep you nice and happy

An overinflated sense of self importance injected into them by their liberal arts professors, combined with staggering student debt for a worthless degree leading to a menial low paying job is a recipe for some nasty cognitive dissonance and an inexplicable hatred for anyone who thinks differently than them.

Add that to a lifetime of conditioning to believe whatever illogical bullshit is spewed from their TV and social media feeds and you end up with a nasty smooth brain like the one on display here in this comment thread.

I feel bad for them, I really do. I despise their behavior and the consequences the rest of us suffer due to their ignorant actions, but I don’t blame them for being retarded, I blame the system that created them.
