I was wearing earbuds so I just ignored him completely and eventually he shut up, but this is why I continue to mask, because these people are crazy.

    anytime someone asks why I’m wearing a mask I say it’s because I don’t trust the government. they either short circuit long enough for me to walk away or immediately go “hell yeah” and try to fist bump me

        “they told us to stop wearing masks because they needed to train their new ‘AI’ facial recognition on us.”

          This is kind of unironically true. I’ve been to a couple casinos recently in teh past year or two and they make you take pictures for facial recognition.

    Well I hope he gets the COVID Pneumonia I’m on week three of. There have been points I’d rather have just been dead. Seem to be on the mend now, but wow is it ever going slowly.

      It’s terrible. I have vaccinated every six months so I only got a stuffy nose but I don’t wish it on responsible people.

        I was super regular with mine up until the last one. Both Shopper’s and Rexall were being weird about it, I don’t recall if it was waiting for supply, and/or their online booking was all messed up, and it eventually just slipped through the cracks. NOT going to let that happen EVER again!

    Dude, something like that happened to me in the US. I was walking into a grocery store and a guy in a MAGot hat saw me wearing a mask and said, “masks don’t work”. I said fuck you and kept walking. Don’t know if he heard me, but it just made me so mad for the rest of the day, like I live in a place filled with brain-rot.

    I don’t mean to go off topic, but I’d assume your Canadian by the guys shirt. This makes all your sov cit stuff even funnier coming from someone outside the U.S.

    If this is true, do you have a sov cit movement up there?
