Just seeing if anybody would go along with it.

Definately not.

Fatted · 10/10/2020 12:18

At home?! Fuck that.

Also interested to see how that could possibly be enforced. The law of this country means I can behave how I choose in the privacy of my own home.

SimonJT · 10/10/2020 12:18

When we kiss, share a bed, often share a toothbrush and have sex then I’m sure wearing a mask at home would be extremely useful.

Frazzled13 · 10/10/2020 12:19

Of course not.

Witchend · 10/10/2020 12:19

How would they check that?

CoffeeNights · 10/10/2020 12:19

nope. too far and unenforceable. Happy to wear them out and about, but not all the time in my own home.

3littlewords · 10/10/2020 12:19

This is ridiculous now Hmm

SilenceOfTheEmu · 10/10/2020 12:19

Fuck no - that’s batshit!

SoUtterlyGroundDown · 10/10/2020 12:20

Of course not.

TheLastStarfighter · 10/10/2020 12:20

haha haha NO.

I actively comply with it everywhere else, and get frustrated that some others don’t, but that would be a step too far.

PinkSparklyPussyCat · 10/10/2020 12:20

That would be the most ridiculous idea they have come up with yet! How on earth would they police it? Surely no one with any common sense would allow the government to tell them what they wear in their own home!

Triangularbubble · 10/10/2020 12:20

No.

BrazenlyDefying · 10/10/2020 12:21

Of course not, ridiculous and unenforceable.

Juniperandrage · 10/10/2020 12:21

what would the point be and how would anyone know?

paxillin · 10/10/2020 12:21

No.

I don't think even the current administration would be unhinged enough to suggest it.

Viv0321 · 10/10/2020 12:21

Why?

Rudolphian · 10/10/2020 12:21

Nope

gymbummy · 10/10/2020 12:21

Absolute bollocks to that!

3littlewords · 10/10/2020 12:22

Anyone who would comply with that are stupid enough to drink their own piss if the government told them too!

Threeoleary · 10/10/2020 12:22

Has this actually been suggested by government or scientists?

DilysPrice · 10/10/2020 12:23

Not sure.
Would you wear a zebra onesie to the office if that was made compulsory OP? How about orange nail varnish?

coffeeabdteav · 10/10/2020 12:23

Has this even been suggested as a thing?

It doesn't make any sense. As said people sleep in the same bed etc.

I heard outside was suggested but not in your own home.

Funkypolar · 10/10/2020 12:23

But but but...do you want to pass on the virus to your household?

Wouldn’t be surprised if they banned sex with your spouse next.

CrunchyCarrot · 10/10/2020 12:23

Don't be daft - of course not!

Oh ffs, as if any Govt would ask this of their citizens. It was just a hypothetical question by the OP.
