ok....this is getting out of control. i swear to god this virus is causing people's mental capacity to break down or something. can a virus effect people's minds? O.o because i've noticed ever since this virus has gone on...ive been noticing more dumbasses, illogical people and COMPLETELY over hysterical people out. anybody else notice too?
It’s like restaurants wanting people to wear a mask to their table. It’s stupid. And even if masks worked, a restaurant is not a place you should be if you are paranoid about respiratory viruses.
Yeah on the local news a few times they said that around 70% of lemon wedges in restaurants had fecal bacteria. Also hepatitis from salads and filthy workers.
At rec facility indoor pool. I walk out of the pool to dry, and a woman with a mask was trying to get my attention. She pointed at my and at her face, I realized she was talking about a mask. I mouthed that I'm drying off and held up my towel. She walked backwards to the waterline (about 10 ft away from me) and side stepped by. I couldn't believe what just happened, my first real life encounter with a NPC.
You're lucky. I've already had 3 bovines scream at me for not wearing latex gloves while shopping... on 3 different occasions. One said I was a Fox viewer, despite no apparent visual cues for such thing.
That's nuts. Are you in a big city? I'm in a small city in upstate NY and I mock the glove wearers. They don't even use the gloves properly. They touch their phones, reach into their purses, etc. Then I find the gloved discarded in the parking lot. The worst type of person does this.
No, I don't. But I live beyond the fringe of a metro, where agri meets city, so there is crossover.
I just find it obscene. People yelling their heads off in public like 7 year olds not getting their favorite toy they've been eyeing for an entire month.
DON'T YOU KNOW THAT YOU CAN'T GET THE RONA IF YOU'RE SITTING [email protected] iT'S BECAUSE THE RONA IS LIGHTER THAN AIR AND ONLY FLOATS AT STANDING PERSON HEAD LEVELSi!i!
IF THIS BIGGONT COUNTRY CARED MORE ABOUT HANDI... I MEAN REDUCED ABLED PEOPLE THERE WOULD BE ENOUGH RAMPS FOR EVERY ONE AND THEN WE COULD BEAT THIS VIRUS BY EVERYONE USING WHEEL CHARS! BUT NO! PATRIARCHAL LEG USERS STILL USE STAIRS SO EVERYBODY CAN'T USE WHEELCHAIRS!
Went to lunch a few weeks ago. You have to wear a mask to your table. Then it get's even better. You need to keep it on until your drinks arrive, then you may remove it. I asked the server why? They had no legitimate answer.
I don't get the thinking at this point. I'm going to a very public place, to have a meal, prepared by people with questionable hygiene skills, served by people that are handling both money and the credit machine, while others walk by my table crop-dusting me. How is keeping a mask on until my drink arrives "saving" me from covid?
If I was that afraid, I sure as fuck wouldn't be going for a meal at germ central station.
If it was a work lunch or you were on your lunch break, I completely understand staying. But if this were just a lunch with friends or family, I would have stood up and said "we're going somewhere else". These people have to be told that we realize how stupid these policies are. I also refuse to spend money anywhere that goes above and beyond with the covid shit. Yoga studio that requires a questionnaire and temperature check every visit? No. Gym that has a mask sign on the door, but the employees look the other way when I start working out and the mask "accidentally slips off"? Yes.
Yeah. It’s the inconsistency which irritates me. I can actually accept that masks would be helpful in situations like subways, elevators etc where you are sharing their air with people for a short amount of time. Masks would plausibly reduce infections there.
But if you’re sitting around a table eating and talking and stuff, a mask isn’t going to do shit when you’re there for two hours. It’s not like a protective magic spell.
Just wear a mask that is obviously useless. I have one that is lace — it is obviously pointless, the air goes right through it. People don’t care, as long as I look like I’m complying! That’s how you know it’s all bullshit.
If it were that serious then the restaurants could not and should not ever open. The fact that they are open is evidence that it is indeed NOT that serious and therefore requiring masks is stupid and pointless.
To be fair, at least this one is consistent with the idiotic logic. Those just contradict the purpose of the mask in the first place since they're literal holes cut in masks and nothing on the instruments themselves.
That's how I feel. I think at this point, with the double mask mandate, the government is trying to see how far they can push the people before they'll start pushing back. It is pretty sad that there are so many absolutely cucked people that are willing to double mask out there.
I'm not so sure this is bad as y'all think - have any of you been a child before? Christ, I can easily imagine "Haha, this is dumb, if I post this online, so many people will laugh or get angry."
Kid's probably mocking it, and it deserves mockery of that level. On the other hand, it's nuts that it even got to the point where this could be a thing to be mocked. No gulags yet!
Idk who you are, but I'm betting you could do that in under 10 minutes if you had the materials. Christ, did you have no childhood or something to consider that as even a possibility? People have silly fun, especially small, little people of a younger age. It's called being a child.
Could be other things, but damn, don't rule it out.
No this is the new reddit and we only post in anger with zero thought to the possibility we are missing context and falling for rage bait. Imaginary internet points are on the line 'fren'
That is so dangerous. I’m glad she and the baby made it through delivery under the lack of oxygen. Life changing defects can be caused by a lack of oxygen at birth.
Woodwind player here. This shit has been plaguing the music world for a while. Some school bands are seriously making their kids put their saxophones in trash bags because they're so fucking scared of the coof coming out of the tone holes. Thankfully some of the higher level orchestras are letting the winds play without that nonsense, but the strings/percussion are still masked even in them.
As a flutist I refuse to wear any of this nonsense. If it means no one will hire me then so be it; I'll make my own little MAGA orchestra with sane musicians.
Edit: Actually have been considering trying to find a couple of other local concert musicians who aren't totally deluded. Might start seeing if I can't recruit a few folks.
You just need a snare player and someone to hold an American flag, and you can march around neighborhoods playing Yankee Doodle to recruit for the continental army.
Yeah, not sure how they're going to hear any of them if they're covering it up. I can only imagine woodwinds marching like this- the furthest you could hear them would be the sidelines.
Here's a hint: if you can hear the music, the air is escaping the bag, along with the virus. A hundred years from now, if we're still around, people will look back at these times and think—what a bunch of fucking idiots.
This photo made me wonder if it will end up in history books. Will future generations look back at the fake pandemic and believe that we all happily complied?
I k ow! Now hear me out guys, before you say anything negative...what if, instead of having to mask our faces, hands, and everything else...we just mask our entire bodies! We can call them, I dunno, burhkas?
I think a real case for child abuse can be made here. She will forever be mentally scarred by her parents' and teachers' hysterical overreaction to a virus that hasn't even been isolated yet. She's going to have some serious latent anger issues to deal with when she's older.
WE CANNOT CONTINUE TOLERATING THIS LEVEL OF DERANGEMENT
Here we are
complete Hysteria.
...as she plays her Clarhairnet.
You're comment has been flagged for Awesome!
At least we know she can follow along in unison with just about any tune!
that is underwear on her face, right?
no, it's a retard mask with an opening for straws, food, her mouthpiece, and assorted other insertables.
Giggity

It just shows me how much people would rather comply then to follow through would critical thinking.
Goes to show King George III was a moron.
If only he told the colonists to stay inside and wear a mask, the entire American Revolution could have been prevented.
man you just blew my mind
Powdered wigs were the limit
It's the lack of oxygen from wearing masks showing it's effect
Yes
No, it's cabin fever. People's brains are melting.

Or germs of any kind.
*Shit smeared lemon slices have entered the chat.
Is that a thing?
Yeah just Google lemon party (NSFW)
wtf is google?
Sounds communist.
is
It’s a fagat
LEMON STEALING WHORES
Yeah on the local news a few times they said that around 70% of lemon wedges in restaurants had fecal bacteria. Also hepatitis from salads and filthy workers.
Did they specify the sensitivity of the test? Fecal matter can be found on pretty much anything anywhere near a washroom.
Literally just watch the mythbusters episode and realize we live in a dirty world and THATS WHY WE HAVE IMMUNE SYSTEMS.
Stop using logic and common sense, bigot. How dare you advocate for murdering all the grandmas.
Don't eat at a restaurant in Texas right now. Employees can't even shower before work

Neurotic people need tranquilizers. I swear.

I was at the library and had a stack of books in my hand. My mask dropped below my nose and the lady working there said SIR
like do you not see what I have in my hands? I'm not dropping them on the ground to fix my face diaper

It's still unbelievable to me how some restaurants are closed for indoor dining and instead offer an outdoor yet still enclosed place to sit in.
And I thought the picture of the kids playing instruments through holes in their masks was bad.
To be fair, at least this one is consistent with the idiotic logic. Those just contradict the purpose of the mask in the first place since they're literal holes cut in masks and nothing on the instruments themselves.
For everyone's "safety".
This is so messed up
God all mighty...it is truly scary how fucking dumb people are. Critical thinkers are a dying breed.
They are just fucking with us at this point
That's how I feel. I think at this point, with the double mask mandate, the government is trying to see how far they can push the people before they'll start pushing back. It is pretty sad that there are so many absolutely cucked people that are willing to double mask out there.
Only the idiots that actually comply are the ones being fucked with
Which, unfortunately, is a large majority at the moment.
I'm not so sure this is bad as y'all think - have any of you been a child before? Christ, I can easily imagine "Haha, this is dumb, if I post this online, so many people will laugh or get angry."
Kid's probably mocking it, and it deserves mockery of that level. On the other hand, it's nuts that it even got to the point where this could be a thing to be mocked. No gulags yet!
They custom made the mask and instrument bag with elastic hand holes... to mockn it? Get fuckin real.
Idk who you are, but I'm betting you could do that in under 10 minutes if you had the materials. Christ, did you have no childhood or something to consider that as even a possibility? People have silly fun, especially small, little people of a younger age. It's called being a child.

We beat you yanks at something finally! We now have covid gulags in Canada. Take that 'Merica!
They made my fiance wear a mask during labor.
They expect us both to wear one continuously, even while alone together with our newborn, for the entire 48h+ stay here.
My condolences to your infant and their having to grow up in this shit world.
Taking "cute" photos of the newborn enveloped in a face shield has become popular where I work. I lose more faith in people every day.
'alone together' the dystopian mantra
That is so dangerous. I’m glad she and the baby made it through delivery under the lack of oxygen. Life changing defects can be caused by a lack of oxygen at birth.
She ended up getting c-section. She threw up during OR prep and that was enough for them to allow her to skip it.
Are you still in the hospital? Just keep accidentally getting blood on the mask.
I'm curious to hear how it sounds.
Looks like she's blowing a clown dick.
I was thinking that mask makes her look like one of the nurses from silent hill.
I'm sure that mosquito net is going to catch all of the magic virus coming out of that clarinet.
IT'S NOT ABOUT STOPPING THE [email protected] IT'S ABOUT STOPPING DROPLETS! SHE'S UNIRONICALLY LITTERALLY SAVING LIVES JUST NOW!

No need to wait a hundred years. We're thinking it now.

We live in a world full of retards.
MK-INTRA
Anything to stop the China Red Death she should wear a plastic bag over the rest of her body so spittle doesn't fly and kill everyone. LOL
Clarinet condom.
She literally looks retarded
Damn.....
Dumb! Dumb! DUMB!
Why? WHY?!?
This is what Hunter Biden's wet dreams are made of
His username is up above. Who knew he was a commenter. Always assumed they were just lurkers.
Ridiculous
Lol, You americans are so silly!
I k ow! Now hear me out guys, before you say anything negative...what if, instead of having to mask our faces, hands, and everything else...we just mask our entire bodies! We can call them, I dunno, burhkas?
I bet that sounds as bad as it looks.
RIP humanity!
This is retarded and that bag doesn't look like it can filter the spit coming out of it too.
Imagine thinking this is acceptable.
Bags’ Groove
Won't somebody think about the children???
It’s a joke
Willful idiots.
WTF. Pure insanity
Lol... it's mesh or silk fabric, right? That wouldn't stop anything. This is so stupid.
I need to produce and sell something retarded and superfluous like that. Can probably get a federal contract for public schools.
This shit is the modern-day version of using leeches as a viable medical practice.
That dead look…
Looks like she's at home fast.
I'm not sure whether God is pissed, incredibly disappointed, or laughing hysterically.
The nerve, that needs another layer. Fucking murderers.
That bag looks like it does even less than a mask as I can see the damn instrument thru it.
I think a real case for child abuse can be made here. She will forever be mentally scarred by her parents' and teachers' hysterical overreaction to a virus that hasn't even been isolated yet. She's going to have some serious latent anger issues to deal with when she's older.
IDK. Is it a zoomer meme? Ever harder to tell the difference between Babylon Bee and not.
No country will ever take us over. We will implode from the inside first, out of stupidity. We are the USSA.
STRAIGHT OUTTA PERSIA.
If anyone is still into Reddit, I’m sure you could post this for a load of free karma
anyone else think it was a bong at first??.... lol
