Are you pansies still wearing masks?

Nope done!! Call me names, hold your breath and throw a tantrum, call me a Trumptard,etc,etc. I’m done!!!

Are you sick? Then no problem.


Apr 16, 2021, 6:08 PM

But the mask wearing and the major decline of flu cases this year show there’s a good reason to wear one if you’re sick.

Can you explain the problem with wearing a mask?


Apr 16, 2021, 7:14 PM

I really don't understand this weird sensitivity to doing something so unexceptionable.

Re: Can you explain the problem with wearing a mask?


Apr 16, 2021, 7:40 PM

Sure I can explain. It’s been well over a year and I hate wearing the thing. Pretty much that simple.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Have you tried to find a better fitting mask?


Apr 16, 2021, 7:45 PM

I have had no issues wearing one and can't see how anyone could except if they have a poorly fitting mask or have to wear one for long hours (like in a hospital).

It really seems like such a small action to protect oneself and others and complaining about it borders on snowflake territory for me (assuming you aren't in one of the two previous groups).

Re: Have you tried to find a better fitting mask?


Apr 16, 2021, 8:07 PM

I’ve had covid. By now most people who want the vaccine have had the opportunity. People can also choose to wear a mask even if they’ve had their supposed protection from the vaccine. It’s time for everyone to make their own choices as they see fit.

Re: Have you tried to find a better fitting mask?


Apr 16, 2021, 9:12 PM

It’s time because at some point you realize living on this planet involves some risk. People can now choose to get vaccinated and wear a mask for the rest of their lives. I choose to move on. I know that’s not popular with some people but more and more people now feel that way.

Personally I'd wait until I myself was vaxxed...but hey. Go forth and infect the world. It's your right as an American and you're not being even slightly selfish or irresponsible, and you are in no way putting little old ladies around you at risk.

At this point haven’t the little old ladies had their vaccine? So , if the little old ladies have had the vaccine and wear a mask are they not safe? Where is your confidence in the vaccine? I’ve worn the mask in public places for a year. I’m done and so are many others. You wear your mask and carry on and you will be ok right?

You are not yet protected by the vaccine. That's the math. Period.

If you just plain don't care, go ahead and say so. But it is not yet "time" to stop wearing a mask.

When will the time be?


Apr 17, 2021, 6:20 AM

When cases go to zero, 1000 a day 10,000 a day? Only 10% of the population has been infected. Most everyone that is planning on getting vaccinated has already been vaccinated, maybe a few percentage more but not much. COVID is here to stay like the flu.

2024 orange level memberbadge-donor-10yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up


Re: When will the time be?


Apr 17, 2021, 6:33 AM

Honestly, probably a month or two.

My guess will be, we'll know it when we see it. There's this "R" number they track, and when it hits that magic wall, it falls off a cliff. We're starting to see cases fall in places like New York because they got hit hard in initial waves so they have a lot of antibodies and a lot of vaxxed people. Even with the Johnson & Johnson vax getting pulled they're still vaxxing 3.5+ million a day and that's a wall of immunity; we're up to 80+ million vaxxed now, by mid-summer it'll by well over half the population and I think cases start plummeting. At which point, de-mask away, because it's basically over.

At that point they can start doing contact tracing and local efforts and that kind of stuff starts getting a lot more effective because it's not an out-of-control pandemic with brushfire conditions, so barring a "Variant X" thing that comes sweeping in from Mongolia or some such we could have this thing 99.99% knocked down by the end of the year. At which point nobody except the truly paranoid will still be wearing the masks. (You know there will still be some die-hard paranoid germaphobes still wearing them come this time next summer because, well, you just never know, but there's always that one guy in your neighborhood who still has his Christmas tree up in August too.)

There's more than half a million Americans dead. There's a guy over on the main board asking for prayers right now because his wife is dying, in fact. Her oxygen's down in the low '80's.

I'm sorry wearing a mask seems like an imposition on your precious "freedom". I feel for you, I really do.

2024 orange level member flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Re: my body my choice only work for abortion


Apr 17, 2021, 8:07 AM

I guess you really have no idea how you come across. My own wife has asthma. When we got COVID she made it. We kept checking her oxygen levels, but they never dropped below 90, that level they recommend you head to the hospital. She wheezed, she panted for breath at times, but she never got lower than 91, and we didn't have to go. Still had some bad moments. We sat on the couch one night and I held her hand. I didn't want to think about what life would look like without her.

This guy's wife doesn't sound like she's making it. Go on, tell her it's just the sniffles. Because the next one you infect without even realizing it could be her, or somebody just like her. That's the whole point of the mask...making sure you aren't the guy who snuffed out this woman, or somebody like her.

I guess some of you make it so hard because you just really haven't been there.

If you do not leave your home, you will reduce your chances of getting or spreading COVID. Oh by the way, if you have read any of my previous posts, you know that I wear a mask.
YOU may want to consider how YOU come across before preaching to others as to how they come across.

Apologies. Re-read and I see what happened. I did indeed get confused because of how thread views sometimes get shown; I wasn't having the argument I thought I was. Which indeed makes me (drum roll) the a$$hole. At least in regards to this quibble I thought I was havbing with you about "the sniffles". Tardog, not so much.

In my very best British accent: "You have my unreserved apology, sir." And I do need to go seek some caffeine, clearly.

Re: because it is stupid if you have been vaccinated or already

Exactly. If you’ve had your vaccine and have any confidence in the thing get your butt out of the house. Put a mask on too if you wish. If you’re afraid or feel vulnerable stay home or away from people. So much of what we’re doing is going through the motions and just stupid. Watch a basketball game. Watch guys guard nose to nose then go to the bench , put on a mask, and sit 6 feet apart. Idiotic!! Walked into a crowded restaurant with a mask in, go to your table and take it off in a place where everybody sits with no mask. Put the stupid thing on to go across the room again?
I think we are just getting tired of the crap.

Masks don't stop influenza or coronavirus. Counting every person with the sniffles as covid rather than flu is what stopped influenza this year.

because people who do not get vaccinated all but guarantee that the rest of us will be getting booster shots until the anti vax crowd finally all die off, and that makes Jesus angry, especially since they are supposed to be rational adults.
