A mask is supposed to go over your mouth AND YOUR NOSE

[Annoyance]

FFS.

[confusedofengland]

I like the analogy that wearing a mask but having your nose stick out is like (for men) wearing pants but letting your willy stick out

[ssd]

IME working in retail, its older people who are the worst for this, the ones who need all the protection they can get...

[mylittleyumyum]

People like ME? How dare you assume I go near ANYONE? Even before all this palaver I never got in, or allowed anyone in my personal space.

I'd be more inclined to think that the people who pull strangers up for not wearing a mask normally want them to so they can get closer to them?

[Whoooootaminute]

Mind your own business.

Complete nonsense.

someone all ways says this.
yet it is other peoples business as masks are supposed to protect others.

[Mischance]

Pitiful isn't it? No wonder the virus is spreading.

I never got in, or allowed anyone in my personal space.

mylittleyumyum How did you manage that? Short of wearing a hoop skirt 4 metres in diameter I can't even fathom how I could stop other people entering my personal space, and even then there would be no mutual protection from coughs and sneezes?

[doctorhamster]

I honestly think masks are completely pointless at this stage. People either don't wear them at all, don't wear them properly, or think wearing it properly gives them total immunity to covid so social distancing goes out the window.

[Soubriquet]

I see this every day though

Usually in people who wear glasses

[Covidiot]

Mask-twats are everywhere.

[RedRiverShore]

There is a fine example on the front page of the papers today

[TokyoSushi]

This is my new pet hate! Mask twats, that's a good name for them! Of course Jeremy Corbyn wears his like that!

[Tumbleweed101]

Sometimes the only way to clear glasses is to pull it down for a moment otherwise you’re completely blind! It’s even worse with the colder air outside and warm air inside now. I do wear them properly but find I’m fiddling with it more now as I can’t see. Masks really aren’t practical for glasses wearers. I still haven’t found one that doesn’t steam them up. However it has meant I rarely go out so I’m less likely to be a danger to others anyway.

And apparently it's fine to remove them to talk to people

I saw a lady in Aldi remove her mask to cough, and then put her mask back on!

[CorianderLord]

😂 I've had frequent hospital appts this summer and the number of people who wear the mask in and then when they get to the desk pull it down to talk.

I can feel the receptionists wanting to roll their eyes.

Mind your own business.

Given they are to protect others rather than the wearer, it is our business.

[OpheIiaBaIls]

I'm exempt (wear a lanyard, carry a consultant's letter etc) and I've had people wearing masks on their chin give me abuse for not wearing a mask. One charmer took his mask off entirely to better be able to shout at me in the supermarket.

[Muddybuddy]

It totally is our business. The masks are to protect everyone. I’ve been to Tesco today and saw 6 people with noses stuck out of the top of masks, it’s maddening

My favorite was the man who pulled his mask down to lick his fucking fingers, to rub open a veg bag in the grocery store. He then squeezed every fucking pumpkin. I told him what I thought of that. He was rude, but at least didn't shoot me or anything. Apparently how can he open bags without licking his fingers. Infuriating.

[ListeningQuietly]

Old men whose brothers are COVID deniers need to know it too

Drives me bonkers too. I was out with my adult daughter this week in a shop. Quite a lot for me to tackle my anxiety to do this as I used to cry food shopping - just from the anxiety.

We were in a small boutique jewellery shop and I wanted to buy a necklace for bad for my daughter so we asked the salesgirl if we could see it. She comes over with her mask under her nose. I said, “Excuse me, would you mind wearing your mask over your nose.” She looked at me very shocked that I’d say something, but she did it. I did thank her.

My DD told me off after leaving the shop how embarrassing I was. I had to tell her no, it’s the sakes lady who should be embarrassed.

As you can tell from my user name, I love yoga. I only started it in the autumn because of peri menopause issues and it soooooo helped me. Absolutely devastated when I couldn’t go to my health club. I tried on mine but just didn’t do it for me. I have been unbelievably thrilled to be doing it again. Sooo
At my health club they have covid protocols to avoid spread, which includes everyone using hand sanitiser upon entry and you must clean your equipment after use (and before use). Today I was there with DD. Young man comes in (wearing gym kit with very posh public school on the shirt) and breezes right by the hand sanitiser - do I said to him that he missed the hand sanitiser. Looked at me dumbfounded, how dare I say something to him, part of the world’s elite is dated to be reprimanded. (Ok, it was St George’s College, Weybridge shirt)

Again, DD tells me how embarrassing I am.

Nope. Not having it. I don’t want my health club closed down. It’s very important to my physical and mental health, I know to many others going there too and I’ll be damned if I’d allow a little arrogant shit mess things up for the rest of us.

One of the nice things about facemasks is you can now tell at a glance if someone is a total moron.

[bengalcat]

Just give mask and non / ‘dodgy ‘ mask wearers an equal wide berth . You’ve no idea of mask wearers have just used one non washed mask for the whole / significant part of the pandemic .

Gross. Even before the pandemic that was, and still is, a disgusting habit.
