Your Dumbest Mask Sightings

Funniest one I've seen personally was a guy wearing one of those single cup coffee filters with duct tape over his ears to hold it. I crashed into some poor gal's grocery cart with my grocery cart, laughing.

Funniest one of all time that I've seen (but not in person) was this woman in the checkout line at Walmart or Target (I forget which). Some staff person told her she needed a mask and she reached down, and up under her dress, and pulled off her thong and strung it up over her nose and mouth and behind her head. About fell off my chair when I saw that one!

Fishing in the middle of nowhere, guy on a small trout creek on a portage between lakes, about 100-125 yards from the portage to the creek, nobody around. Another, a guy in a boat on a lake in Haliburton in the middle of the week, no other boats, no cottagers, no brains!

Cheers - Dave

Well, the first guy makes sense. I've heard that human/fish born Covid transmission is on the rise (first believed to have spread when, behind Hellboys back, that fishy sneak Abraham Sapian had a toss with that fire chick...let's just say that wasn't the only reason it burnt when he peed).

Hahaha! Good ones. You've just given me and idea for my next thread. The second one, depending on whether it was WalMart of Target, has the potential to be either sexy, or really really gross.

The funniest mask I saw was on an old, bald guy who had a bra wrapped around his head, using one of the bra cups as a mask.

Ha! Just think, if only he were one half of a Siamese Twin this might have made sense...

Not even an hour ago I say one of these people you are talking of.
He was waiting for the lift in my mums block of flats.
Blue face diaper on and a mountain bike.He was puffing and panting just standing there.When the lift came he told me that I couldn't come in the lift at the same time as him and his bike but he was only going to the first floor.
Why the hell would you wear a mask on a mountain bike especially if like this guy you were fat and seriously overweight?

The gal was not morbidly obese, if that's your question.

The guy walking down the street, 97 degrees....kn-95 mask over a blue disposable one, all under a face shield. He passed out 2 blocks over, and tested positive for covid. Lmao.

When this all started, work said I needed a face covering. I made a mask out of a lace doily, that said it was fine.

One governor came out recently (can't remember who) and said that people at restaurants should leave their masks on and only pull them down when putting food into their mouths, then pull the mask up again while chewing.

As dumb as that is, it pales in comparison to some of the really stupid things politicians have said.

Certainly one of the best is Rep. Hank Johnson saying he feared that stationing 8,000 Marines on Guam would cause the island to "tip over and capsize".

Then there's V.P. Dan Quayle, who said (in public) that "It isn't pollution that's harming our environment. It's the impurities in our air and water that are doing it."

One double masked women once got into my face, accusing me of skipping her in the line. I said to her, you were standing like 5m away and would not get into the line, then that's on you.

She said that it's too stressful for her to get in line, too close contact. I asked her why she's in my face then. Like 10cm away. Oh when she heard that, her flight response kicked in and she started bickering from far away, I ignored her. The waitress on the other side of the takeout table started to excuse herself but I interrupted her that it's not her fault at all.

TLDR: Double masked individual get's in my face because could not be bothered to get in line, but for making a scene, could get to nose distance and scream at me.

I saw a woman with a surgical mask on that was cut in half to the middle so she could smoke.

We went for a walk on a country road that has been closed as a trail near town. Nearing the parking lot
a couple were heading in, the man no mask the Woman a mask. We went to the side of the road leaving a good 10 ft to pass, as they got nearer the woman pulled the guys hand and backed up a pace, looked panicked, looked back at us (no maskers) and he tried to talk to her murmuring close to her face, but they nearly ran back to the car and drove a way.

I honestly felt sorry for that Woman, the day was beautiful and the air clean and pure and this was just after everyone had been shut in for months! She was young and healthy looking in her 30's Id say but terrified!

Ha

If you are attacking ME your are not attacking Dr Fauci YOU ARE ATTACKING SCIENCE!!

He IS science you see!

I had a guy pull a Joe Biden next to me in Target. He's not three feet away and he proceeds to pull down his mask, cough like a TB victim into his hand, then put it back on.

Not mask user per se, but plastic bags on hands and feet with rubberbands or tape in my town... Pool noodle hat to keep people at a distance, spotted by my brother in Phoenix

That reminds me of the masks with the straw hole.Those always make me chuckle.

Husband and I went to a local diner to eat the other night. They were so full you had to wait to be seated. While waiting we spotted a guy in the dining room eating alone. We watched as he sat there with his mask pulled up cutting up his plate of food. I figured he'd take the mask off when he was done cutting everything up. Nope. He proceeded to slide each bite under his mask to eat it. Same with his coffee. He was dining alone and there was no one within a 5 foot radius all around him. He wasn't about to take that mask off for anybody.

"Security Guards" at the Train Station pointing out that people should wear masks over their nose in a grunty fashion while their face nappies are hanging off their chins. Got an abject apology from the train company to my rather long and scathing email.
These idiots were unemployed pre-scamdemic.
