“Put your damn mask on” said a guy three seats behind me on a Southwest Airline flight heading to Washington, D.C. to the passenger walking down the aisle. The man's mask had slid down under his nose as he negotiated his carry-on bag while holding his little daughter’s hand.
I turned around to see who was making such a demand so rudely. Just as I suspected, it was the guy who came aboard sporting a full N95 mask, face shield cover and surgical gloves. Forget for a moment that the father’s mask slipping actually posed zero risk to the hazmat-protected, delusional passenger. Who appointed him

People who act out like that should get a punch in the nose.

These mask Nazis make me sick.
We know who will be in the Stazi if Biden/Obama/China are able to steal this election.

The mask controversy taps into the deepest mine of smugness and sanctimony. I can't think of any possible scenario that could be worse than this "disease".

I have no fear of flying in the age of COVID. I've been on eight flights since June and fortunately have yet to be on a flight with a mask nazi. Good thing, too. On my most recent flight, I was sitting in first class (I got a really good deal on the seat). About 5 minutes after finishing my scotch on the rocks, I realized I had never pulled my gaiter back up. No one else had noticed either, or if they had, didn't say anything about it. I felt like such a rebel! And it felt really good!

Sometimes I wear one, sometimes I don't depending on my mood. But if ever confronted I have a couple of responses ready:
1. Are you a doctor? And keep walking.
OR
2. Whatever makes you feel like you should give me medical advice.........shouldn't.

I just wear my full head gorilla mask and call it my Covid mask. Convenience store employees and bank tellers really like that - except when they're cowering under the counter calling the police.

I really resent being told what to do. Its been happening my whole life. Almost always those with who do it are bigger losers than I am and their lives are complete train wrecks. That includes those with the legal authority to boss people around.
How about this? Leave me alone and I wont beat you to a pulp.

A male Karen, the worst kind. I would have been thrown off the plane about a half second after that clown make his demand.

Never knew there was such thing as an eye sneer but there is. I received one while walking around an outdoor mall without a mask. My feeling was that is she was that afraid of getting sick, she should be at home under her covers. Yesterday there were so many people wearing masks at this outdoor mall, it broke my heart. What has happened to us? As we know, a mask works as well as a chain link fence stopping a mosquito. But the younger people have been told it still helps to protect the elderly.

The other day, as I was entering a national chain discount store, I was pulling my mask out of my pocket. The bouncer at the velvet rope behind the giant "Mask wearing mandatory" sign snarled, "Hey, do you have your mask on?"
"No, this is my real face. You calling me ugly or something?"
The manager standing nearby laughed. The bouncer gave me the hard stare...

A few days ago I was out and about (without a mask) and some fat guy got out of a car with a mask on. He had a full mountain man beard from the eyes on down which would make the mask useless even if they did work. The entertainment value was priceless. His face looked like a sasquatch wearing panties.

If accosted for not wearing a mask you can always point out that, if everyone else is wearing one, then you don’t need one. Same goes for the vaccine - if everyone else gets it, why do you need it too?
A poster after the article said that he doesn’t wear one and when anyone confronts him, he asks, “Doesn’t your mask protect you?” It the person responds in the negative he then asks them why they are wearing it at all. I’m going to steal that.

Instead of turning around to look at this self-righteous jackass perhaps he should have verbally assaulted him. There is no law (yet) that says you have to passively accept rude behavior.

A facemask is basically a modern day hanky. One sneezes into it. One wipes their nose with it. Its a petri dish for one's germs! No problem though. We are all on a first name basis with our own germs so no harm.

I would have interjected a response in the poor father's defense, something along the line of 'mind your own business karen' to the snarling overprotected chicken little. Then I would have helped the poor father with his bag so he could take charge of his daughter. I cannot help but think this situation is just ramping up to be great times for all the nasty karens who have been longing for the day when they could boss everyone else around, no matter how foolish and wrong headed their reasons.

We always lose to the left's evil. The left gets away with anything. You will be wearing those masks forever, unless you take them off and refuse to wear them. The only way to get into a store will be if a mob of non-mask wearers go in together. The left will never end their emergencies.
