I heard her tell a customer that they didn't pass out the bathroom key anymore because of the germs. "Germs, huh?" I say. She looks at me and sputters through her mask, "Monkey pox!! Someone in Harris County died yesterday from it!! Can you believe it?? Here we go again!!" I said, "Nah not even close. You need to read up on that and realize you're not in the demographic at risk for monkey pox". Hindsight is 20/20 and I wish I'd told her that she was wearing the mask on the wrong hole to protect her from the pox.

I just think of them as players in the game of PaNdEmIc!® and usually I play along and give them a wide berth (they're sick). I really ham it up too and make it obvious that I'm trying to avoid being around them. If they want to act like lepers, I'm going to treat them as such.
Makes sense actually, according to actual logic a mask may stop a sick person from sending out saliva particles if they cough or sneeze.
Since it doesn’t make sense for a healthy person to wear one, and no one is forcing them to, logical conclusion is they have a contagious disease they are trying to stop spreading. BUT they can’t virtue signal THAT because a virtuous person would stay home if they think they have a contagious disease…
Ooh, that's a great idea. I work in multiple retail locations every week. The location where the most mask idiots shop is nearest our local state university. No surprise there. I'll just start treating them like the sick crazy people they are
