Give them friendly, courteous and disarming. Folks today were quick to reciprocate. Everyone you smile at is one more small crack in the farce.
I caught one lady smiling back under her mask and I said to her, "I saw that..!" She looked at me and I told her that there was a pretty smile under that mask. She liked! I got an enthusiastic "Thank you."
These are the things that will fix this mess. I hope.
Thank you for reading.

Yep, I'm the asshole that walks in and says "why the hell is everyone getting ready for Halloween so early?"
Ha! Same here!
Took my family to the Halloween store last weekend and I pretended to be startled/spooked at anyone with a mask and said, while holding my chest, “Whew! YOU have the scariest mask of all!”
