Holy smokes, I did not expect this submission to be so popular. Mask are cool and all, but not when they're being mandated to go about your day to day life. That's when things go too far. And it clearly does not protect the wearer. However... on the flip side...

I'm still trying to figure out where this pandemic of coughing and sneezing people are. Maybe it's location dependent, but I can't remember the last time I saw anyone cough or sneeze out in the open. I'm sure it happens, but it seems rare to me. So I don't get why the insane push to be wearing these when the possibility of transmission in that form is insanely low. Seems to me we're better off carry around sanitizer to keep our hands clean and a handkerchief for the involuntary achooo moments.
