I think its bull but I don't want to make other people uncomfortable. When I walk into someone elses business or house I have the mask on.

Luckily at our office we can keep it off. Only have to put it on when a client comes by.
 
Yeah I work in healthcare I have been next to patients with corona and co workers with corona while we are wearing masks and so far I haven’t got it.

it’s not an inconvenience to me.
Someone photoshop this picture of Jooxed Jooxed with a coVid mask, please.

Yes, whenever I’m out working, running errands, etc. As for exercise, I wasn’t wearing it to the gym so now that my county and gym are requiring it I’ll be forced to jog around the neighborhood again.

Yes, why wouldn't I?

It's winter here, I haven't got even a cold (which is given every year), so it's working so far.

And it's just a mask, it's not like you become a simp or a cuck if you use one, so I really don't get why some people are making it a big deal.

Use a mask, it will keep those around you safer, it can keep you safer. Why the fuck not?

Only when it's required in stores. I didn't use public transport and avoided other people on the street even before the pandemic. ;)

Me and my relatives are also trying to be responsible and we don't attend any casual family gatherings, birthdays etc.

Nope and it is mandatory here. I often times passed a police patrol but they never told me anything. The politicians also don't wear them, or my mom who works with covid patients so why should I? It has been months and still not one person I know has been infected and, like I said, my mom works with infected people at the hospital and she is fine.

Yes. It is also still the law to wear a mask in many places in my country (as it should be.)

Also, I'm not a selfish piece of shit. I don't wear the mask for myself but for others who might have a weakend immune system or other factors that might put them into the higher-risk group. And wearing a mask, washing your hands and keeping a minimum distance is one of the easiest things you can do. I really don't get people who argue that it is somehow a "servere" restriction of their "democratic freedom" (whatever that really is, lol) and the worst thing that has ever happened to them.

I mean, I really like to go swimming, which you really can't at the moment but I'm not out there making a fucking drama. I understand why it is happening and it's ok.
Just fucking behave like a somewhat civilized human being and wear a mask and be considerate, how hard can that be?

At grocery stores and gas stations, yes. At the gym, no. I'm very far from others at the gym and stick close to my machine. It is required to carry a spray bottle with you and everyone has been good about wiping down their equipment.
 
Yep whenever I go to the store, drive thru, or whatever I'll wear a mask.

Only time I don't is when I'm around my wife's parents or exercising or doing yardwork outside.

What about when you’re masturbating?

Personally, I don’t wear a mask anywhere, but things aren’t bad here.

i do it as a courtesy to others, but since it seems to be so fucking hard for most i just stay inside most of the time.

I wear them into places of business. But I don’t just automatically put one on every time I leave the house.

Inside enclosed environments with recirculated air? Yes. Outside in the open air or in our car? No.

I see these people walking their dogs in the woods with barely another soul in sight wearing masks and I just feel so immensely sorry for them. Same with those wearing them inside their cars (alone). These are people clarely paralyzed by fear, and I don't blame them either, if you just got your information from the news it can be easy to see why people would be so scared. You don't blame the flock for having a bad shepard...you pity them.

They suck ass for any extended period of time, like a flight with a layover yesterday to the humid Midwest and getting on a hot shuttle to the rental car area...good lord taking it off in the air conditioned car was glorious.

But yes, of course I wear it even when it’s not mandated. Anywhere at work outside my office too.
 
I have to wear one for work, otherwise no I don't. I don't fear Corona and I like to raise the steaks by snapping at the air where someone has sneezed, like a dog biting at the stream from a garden sprinkler

Chad, here. No, I'm not wearing a mask. I want to stay manly.

Okay, I'm kidding., I wear a mask when I go into a store/outside.
 
The "science" actually says asymptomatic people are not spreading it. The social, one-size fits all, dumbed down approach says to wear the the mask.

A person is smart people are dumb. It is easier to keep things simple so saying wear a mask as a blanket statement keeps shit simple.

Absolutely. The overall rules here are pretty stupid and incoherent regarding restaurants, bars and so on, however in grocery stores and public transportation it's mandatory and i'll be damned to be that idiot who doesn't wear one. It's not that bad in my opinion. Also at work i have to wear one in the entire building except for the department I work in

Of course. I don't want to be careless and infect the people around me

My pops is 63, and my mom is 55. Don't want to put them in any danger no matter what

For those who do wear one, what kind of mask are you wearing? Just a store bought cloth mask? That's what I have.

On a related note, how fucking rich are the companies producing masks now? They sell like 20 of the one time use ones here for 10 euros...they can't cost more than 2-3 cents each to produce.

I wear it if I’m in a Uber or Lyft or when I enter a building or store. Walking down the street I don’t wear one.

I dont elieve that government has the authority to tell people to wear one so no. If a business says I have to to go in I’ll either wear one or go somewhere else.

Do you feel the same way about seatbelts? Or driving while drunk?

It's not only mandated, but since it protects AGAINST YOU not wearing it in public places is being an asshole.
