“Door girl” screams repeatedly “sir where’s your mask” I kept walking, then she started screaming for the manager. Manager chases me down. I turn tell him I have a medical condition and I can socially distance. Go about my merry way, making sure that when I leave I make eye contact with front door girl and smile! Just doing my part.

I saw 4 others besides myself at Kroger maskless. The tides are turning. It will catch on. For awhile I was the only one. Now 4. Next week maybe I’ll see ten people maskless. They need encouragement that they are not alone

If I'm feelin' extra "don't want to deal with it"-ish I'll put mine on near the checkouts and take it off as soon as I'm away from the register. For about a year I've had a really bad reaction to heat & humidity and a mask will make me itch like crazy. Starting to seriously consider the "HIPPA defense" if confronted. ;)

My favorite is guys "trying" to stuff their giant beards into masks. I've also seen the cover-the-mouth-only position and the "tie the top loop over the ears, but let the bottom hang free" maneuver.

Had to take a trip to the Ye Olde Walla-mart today for a thing; had my baby with me. Was getting her in the cart and giving her extra attention to ignore yon door sentry, but yon door sentry asked if I had a mask anyway. Said "Yup", flashed a cloth from my shirt pocket, and went inside a free breather.

I really think people are starting to get tired of it all - no one said anything to me beyond border patrol. People were pretty polite like they used to be/always. The back of my head is always "are they staring at me? are they gonna say something?" Then I feel good about being a free-breather and forget it.
