2. Why are you blowing exhaled air out the gaps of your barrier at the sides of your cheeks toward people next to you?
Because I know that doing something constructive - albeit not perfect - is much better than self-centered whining. And unlike Trump, I'm not worried about my bronzer rubbing off.

Let’s go to the pool.

I’ll stand next to you and urinate.

My fabric trunks will stop the droplets, right?

Wait, did I start engaging a double-digit noob more or less seriously?

Deliberate obtuseness or genuine stupidity?

These Republicans/conservatives need to grow a pair. Really. All this tough guy 'Murica and guns crap and they're really a bunch of passive aggressive sissies. Liberal extremists are running amok and pretty much destroying the US from within and these morons just sit back and let them get away with it. Do something you jellyfish.

I was fine with the shut downs as it gave everyone (including experts) an opportunity to “pump the brakes” and attempt to take control of this out of the ordinary situation.
That doesn't address the masks.

Conservatives have the worse breath imaginable. Why do you think they keep saying that breathing in their own air will make them sick? Because it's true!! I absolutely would not wear a mask either.

This question came to mind when a dear friend sent me this article for laughs: https://cbs12.com/news/local/throw-g...m-out-the-door

Alas, I was not laughing. I was sad. The woman in the second video was particularly concerned about the Devil, Bill Gates, Hillary Clinton. Soon after, I imagined some of the posts here in these women’s voices and it was absolutely frightening how plausible it is that they might be contributing to this forum based on the content of some of these posts.

How did a simple mask become so controversial for conservatives?
People like you are making it a political issue.

It's embarrassing.
Yelp. We are weak. At least the republicans are. Nsnowflakes as they would say.

If the mask is so effective, why does it matter if i wear one? I'm not worried about Covid. If it's really that effective, you dont need to worry about me giving it to you.
