So here it is:
I have wondered for weeks just what kind of idiot _refuses_ to wear a mask during a pandemic (if you've wondered why I haven't done a video in a while, it's because the sound kind sucks with the mask on).
Now I know.
A coworker asked me today if "the place up the road" sold a particular thing (I have to buy from them frequently as part of my job; I've become quite familiar with their stock).
Yes; they do. However, I don't buy it from them unless we have a dire need. It's nearly half the price at Sprawl Mart (I don't go their myself, but the company uses _massive_ quantities, and only Sprawl Mart keeps sufficient quantities on hand. Plus, my job includes managing the purchasing budget. While it's insanely large, it's not infinite).
Oh, says co-worker. I can't go to Sprawl Mart no more. Startin t'day, they make you wear a mast (sic) to git in.
First, let me note that part of the local accent around here is a _bizare_ tendency to take every word that ends in "sk" and pronounce it so that it ends in "st.". No; there is no goddamned sense to this at all; it's just _done_: "I was gunna bast in the sun, but I lef' my mast on my dest."
Fucking asinine!
Second:
Who the Hell refuses to wear a mask?! I mean, I understand why he wouldn't wear a _mast_: some folks might mistake his big ass for a schooner and try to sail the hell out of the United States of What the fuck is wrong with you people?!
Third: why are we worried about reopening schools? I don't mean right now, I mean fucking _ever_?! Why should we give a single shit if our kids ever get educated when it's pretty damned clear the most ignorant butt muffin can rise to insane levels of power and influence! Not just that, but don't we all, in at least some small way, want our children to be influential and heeded as adults? School clearly has no part in that, because the only mother fuckers we are _refusibg_ to listen to are the _educated_ ones!
And fourth, if you were wondering, the coworker was the same knuckle-dragging inbretard that exposed fifty of us back at the start of this by having his Corona-positive sister and her equally-positive husband come and spend a week with them on their way to quarantine in FUCKING FLORIDA so they could go to the beaches and shit!
You know: the guy who cause me to lj e four weeks in my fucking garage out of fear of infecting my asthmatic wife or daughter with chronic bronchitis or eighty-eight-year-old immuno-compromised mother-in-law who was forced to move in with us when her age-related muscular atrophy meant she could no longer compensate for her polio!
_That's the dumb mother fucker that thinks it's wrong to require you to make an effort not to kill other people when you are on their property!
News flash, dumb bastards of America: stores are private property. They are legally prevented from barring entry to people on certain grounds--race, religion, etc. Everyone understands--even if they don't like it- when they see a "no firearms" or a "knives only beyond this point" sign. (yes; they are real, and found inside the doors of some of the better drinking establishments out in the boondocks; please stop asking). But tell me I can't wear a mask because I might kill a thousand people? Tell me to protect _myself_ because I don't know that the next fifty people I encounter aren't dripping with the disease? Oh, no! That's unreasonable!
They tell us that God is, in ways we do not understand, infallible. That's probably for the best, because at this point, it really wouldn't be wise to put me in charge of who lives and who dies.
Or how immediately.
I live in a nation of dumbfucks.
How did this happen? From the mightiest, stivingest, most inspirational beacon on earth to a nation of self-important over-entitled dipshits, and it only really took the length of time the internet has existed.
