Get your muzzle on, you might catch a cold. Do as Jeffery Epsteins friends tell you.

The funny thing is, it actually IS like trying to keep a fart in your trousers.

If someone comes along and farts in your face with trousers on, do you know what happens? You get a face full of stinky fart.

If someone comes and points their BARE ARSE at your face and farts, do you know what happens? You get bacterial conjunctivitis because you just got a load of microscopic **** particles blown into your face.

It can apparently escape a secure high security lab, but a thin piece of cloth is gonna stop it.

Crazy, absolute crazy.

I seriously believe some of these people would chop of their leg if they were told it will keep them safe.

It doesn't completely "stop" it, it reduces the likelihood of transmission and therefore slows the rate of spread, which is a good thing even if it's only by a small amount.

It's really not very hard to understand, unless you misunderstand the purpose of them and pretend that you think they're supposed to "definitely keep you safe".

I understand. The muzzle is incase on the off chance someone coughs or sneezes. It's that simple.

I just don't really understand the issue with masks to be honest... it's not a gag, it's not a muzzle, it doesn't actually restrict anything at all. You can speak in them... they don't restrict breathing... they're barely a minor inconvenience. I can only imagine that people's issue with them is "what they represent". I'm going to be honest, I've not been hardcore on Covid avoidance, we went on holiday with my in-laws from England, we used our exemption (my daughter's disability) to travel outside of our area during the early lockdowns, etc... my daughter kicked about with her friends all summer, has been to sleepovers etc. so I'm hardly Mr Covid Safety.

But the masks? My question is "why not?". Why is it such a scary thing? I understand people being against actual restictions - things being closed, activities being limited... but "Oh nooo a piece of paper is on my face how will I cope!" ... it just seems ridiculous :shrug:.

bots 29-11-2021 09:00 AM

i wear a mask in public, it's just not that big a deal, but i actually think it has become a psychological crutch to many. They don't now feel safe without one, and it's highly understandable if you have watched people die all around you, but the point is, it doesn't protect the mask wearer, it protects people from them .... so it's all a bit crazy

Being totally honest I wouldn't be "scared" to go into a shop maskless - if I'm going to get Covid, it's 99% likely to be via my kids - but I know there are anxious people who would be, so I wear a mask as much for the reassurance of others as much as anything else.

When it's being forced on you to do the things you need to do in life, then it's a muzzle.

Actual definition of a muzzle, a piece of cloth does not fall into any of these definintions

What does it mean to muzzle someone?
A muzzle is a guard that covers an animal's mouth to keep it from biting. ... It's the mouth of a gun, too. If you muzzle someone, you gag him to prevent him from speaking.

What did Dr Hannibal Lector wear for stopping him from biting people?

This makes no logical sense unless you live in a world without other laws and conduct rules. Why aren't you so upset about being "forced" to wear trousers and underwear in public?

forced to wear an id badge for work, forced to show a train ticket when you travel. Forced to pay council tax .... the list is endless

Because I'm not a pervert who wants to flash my tackle at passing people.

Still a muzzle and was put there to stop him doing what he likes to do, in his case, eating people.

But you think it should be legal for people who do want to flash their tackle to be able to do so?
