99% of people have no problem with someone having an emotional support dog, however. Im really doubting the person with with a bright pick dog carrying case, with a chihuahua who barks at every passing person is actually telling the truth about that animal being an emotional support pet.

Nah, I like to pick out my own stuff, from the clearance meat, also produce. Otherwise, as much of a recluse as I am, I would SO do delivery. I do use it (Amazon) for mostly everything else, non edibles.

Wish it worked like that (get over it). When that kinda stuff happens in very early (in my case infancy, on through childhood) years, it creates weird phobias that never go away. Be glad and grateful to God that you cannot relate.

But... but.... you can certainly protect yourself by staying home, right? It’s your life so you should protect it. We have no legal, moral or ethical obligation to do so when that ability is well within your power to easily do so, Karen. Any “endangering” is on you by your choosing to be in an environment where you are unsafe, whether that danger is real or imagined.

You sure don’t sound very compromised to me.

Trumpies, don’t give a damn about three trillion dollar deficits but wearing a little mask makes them cry like a baby.

So order Walmart online and have it delivered. Be a patriot not a virus spreader.

When people have to stay home to stay away from the irresponsible nutcases businesses suffer.

Bingo, reps to you.

Further, the masks aren't intended to protect the wearer from contracting SARS-CoV-2, which is exactly what the warning is saying. Blame the US for being an overly-litigious and overly-uneducated society.

Keep blaming other people for proper breathing through unobstructed vital airways.

If you don't want to be around breathers, you're on the wrong planet.

Uh, what?

I'm not blaming anyone for.... well.... anything.

I was addressing Torn2Pieces' incorrect interpretation of the warning on the box of masks.

You know what works better than masks?

Staying away from people.

So instead of getting in people's faces about them not wearing a mask or allowing people to not wear a mask, why don't you keep your distance, keep your crazy to yourself and go about your business?
