I have seen people wearing the mask upside down, i.e. with the metal part under the chin and huge gaps around the nose

I think mask designers should improve masks. For instance, much of the unpleasant feeling comes from the used air accumulating inside the mask. It might be better to make a mask where there is a stiff horizontal part right UNDER your nose so that the air goes outside right away instead of accumulating between nose and mouth. In fact, mouth and nose should be completely separated in terms of air.

I would submit that people who advocate for wearing masks are more intelligent than people who don't wear masks.

Went to Walmart the other day. Had my own mask. Know how to wear it properly and have my own, but have a difficult time breathing while wearing, so shopping is now a five minute (literally) adventure of pro-football-player-like dodging and weaving and getting the hell out of Dodge just as fast as I can.

As I walked in there was an employee sitting in the middle of the aisle (apparently last weeks' Shopping Cart Sanitizer is not this weeks Health Ambassador). She was sitting eager and ready to hand out masks to anyone who may not have had one. Someone she obviously knew was standing there talking to her. As I walked by I realized that the guy was absently fingering the masks as he was talking.

I know where MY hands have been. Can't say the same for Chatty Cathy and her little friend standing in the middle of the entrance at our local Walmart. This mask-thing is a joke.

Default The Way You Wear Your Mask Might be an IQ Test

Statistically, half of any large population is below average.

The bottom half of that bottom half is WAY below average.

I've been thinking about people who refuse to wear a mask, or if they wear one, purposely wear it wrong.

I wonder if they're the kind of people who don't flush after using a public toilet, don't return their grocery shopping cart to the cart corral, park taking up two parking spaces, don't pick up items in the store that they cause to fall on the floor, don't let someone know they just dropped their credit card, don't throw their trash away when leaving a fast food restaurant, and all the other things normal people do in society just to make it a little easier on everyone else, and not be a jerk.

Hey you said something mostly accurate for once.
There are those of us in the 2nd and 3rd standard deviations above average too, that makes us WAAY above even the "average" ones.

How about the guy I saw the other day standing at the crosswalk waiting for the light to change? Looked about 80 years old and had on all his doomsday props (rubber gloves, sunglasses mask & plastic face shield). When he goes to press the walk button on the pole, he uses the bottom part of his un-tucked shirt between the button on the pole and his gloved hand.

So, whatever he was trying to avoid touching with his gloved hand, is now on his un-tucked shirt bottom, which he'll just wear into his home, lay on the couch wearing it, and probably crawl into bed wearing it too. LOL morons in masks!
