Turn to the person, square up, step in, get in their "personal space" and ask, loudly, "what? you have a problem with the way I look? You want me to hide my face?" and just keep leaning in until they turn and run.
I've been hella curious how the deaf are dealing with this stuff. Dated one years ago and their world was an interesting one to enter. Her ability to read lips was fucking impressive as hell. If you've ever seen the movie I Hope They Serve Beer In Hell that intro is pretty much spot on.
It's been horrid. Have a friend unable to go to college because no local schools would exempt her or anyone else of mask. She can't communicate at all with the hearing world. Where's the ADA now?
Wow that's a really good point. It never occurred to me how much I do that as well. Having to try to decipher what people are saying behind that mask has been exhausting. I feel like I can barely hear them unless they are shouting but the volume is fine I just cant read their lips anymore. We are going to have a generation of fucked up people in the coming years.
That could end up as an Assault With Imaginary Weapon charge. Those tend to carry a sentence of life in jail awaiting trial. Just like being rounded up for imaginary insurgency.
Your comment made my day. I might use it sometime for an aggressive mask wearer, lol.
Mostly I just feel sad folks wearing masks as they have been apologetic and scared rather than aggressive or rude. The tide is turning re public opinion.
That's exactly what I see in the YT shorts I come across. Bunch of asshats trying to bully others into submitting. You don't get all up in someones grill if you're worried about their germs lol. It's almost always some creepy old dude trying to harass a woman. The ones who give a damn will just cross the street to avoid you because they're actual germaphobes rather than minions doing their master's bidding.
I had to wear one to the DMV yesterday. I got so hot I thought my head would explode. I don't think someone else's mental health issues are worth my life.
I was in a store the other day with literally no more than 4 or 5 other customers in the entire place, plus employees. It didn't take long for one of them to birddog me to the back of the store and say, "Ma'am, do you have a mask?" I smiled and said, "I can't wear one, Sweetheart". She paused, mouth agape, and said, "Ok".
Got told by an old man at hospital waiting room while trying to get my records that I’d better put in a mask or the lady at the desk would jump on me. Told him that I had already talked to her (which I had). They have the Must wear a mask sign with disclosure at bottom ‘unless under two yrs or difficulty breathing’. Said I’m taking disclosure for my asthma and she left me alone.
I had someone pull that crap on me the other day.
Found a sweet way to deal with it.

You just gave me an idea.... pretend you're deaf.
Yeah, do some movements with your hand like sign language and then end with a middle finger.😁
Kekekekekeke!!!!!
...and then end with the universal language. Kek!
Bueno idea
Brilliant!

Yeah my ex had a notepad she used to communicate with the hearing public. It was already a pain the ass with her reading lips and writing a response.
Miserable for the hearing impaired. I contract tutors and had one who reads lips--she had a wretched time.
I'm not hearing impaired but never realized how much lip reading I do until the masking started. Our young kids are going to lack this skill!

🤣🤣🤣
Maybe cough on them. That will send them away quickly.

I just start coughing.
If they don't run immediately they're full of shit only wanting to assert power 😂😂👍🏼

Tell them it's not healthy to live in fear all the time. They love that shit.
I just ask them if their underwear holds their farts in...

Amish live around me. because they don't have a propaganda box, they give no fucks. No one fives them a problem. I identify as amish when shopping.
Best thing I’ve seen in months. I’m using it.
I can't stop laughing. I'm using this idea. 'I assure you I don't have a mental illness."
