Face Mask

I went to the grocery store wearing a vampire mask.

I meant to add a festive touch to the Halloween season.

I didn't mean to scare the cashier.

Cashier was maybe a tad oversensitive. I'd have thought it was funny.

OTOH, I'm STILL weirded out by this whole business of walking into banks or convenience stores with a mask on, even after 18 months of this. After all, for the first 50-ish years of my life, that was a "NEVER do unless you want the police summoned" move.

It was the RealBlood® drips with AuthenticAroma®.

I know what you mean. When I went to get my new CPAP, I stood outside to put my mask on. It almost felt like I was about to rob the place. I felt the same way when pay at the pump first became a thing.

My favorite mask to wear at work is a custom-made one that has my own face printed on it.

Customers either think it's hilarious or extremely creepy.

I love my Jaws mask. As I told someone who questioned me about it, with this mask, I feel like Brucie is protecting me from the virus (and other people), and the only one who gets hurt is Chrissy Watkins.

Back when this whole pandemic started, I remember parking away from all the other cars, and then putting on a mask before I walked up to the door. I then realized that just a few weeks prior, that sort of thing would have looked suspicious.

It's official. My clown mask scares old ladies, little girls, and my project manager.

Naughty, naughty. You shouldn't be scaring old ladies and little girls. But since your project manager is being scared, the collateral damage is acceptable.

I know that feeling well.

I also know its relatives:
"Something makes me think you are exploiting pandemic safety measures to make it harder yo identify you. Maybe it's that bottle of wine in your pants."

"You seem to need to be reminded that the Governor's Executive Order applies specifically to masks 'worn for a medical purpose'. Entering a business while wearing any other kind of mask (without permission in writing from the business owner) is still a felony."
I'd wager that if it isn't covering both your mouth and nose then you aren't wearing it 'for a medical purpose'. Similarly your winter wear with big vent holes isn't serving a medical purpose.
