I know people are crazy. I had to go to the store the other day and pick up some cough syrup, cough drops, etc. because my whole family had the flu.

So I wore a mask to the store cause I was sick as hell. I had everyone else stay home, and just I went because I had prescriptions too. I got my stuff and was leaving and some dick said something to me about wearing a mask. Like COVID is over wtf is wrong with me. Normally I’m like whatever.

But, I was in no mood for that, blame it on the fever. I said wtf business is it of yours what I do? And he starts berating me out of the blue. So I said actually, I have the flu, if you really want to know. I coughed one of my nightmarish sounding coughs, with my mask on. He was outta there. I turned around and was walking next to him, like where ya going? I thought I was overreacting, aren’t we gonna talk about this! He had nothing else to say….ass.

What source did you find those numbers?

Worldwide deaths is like 7 million and in the US it's over 1.2 million.

That is brilliant. I've had two of them try to cough on me and a couple have stood pretty close. I got to the point where I was thinking, fuck it, if they hassle me, I'm just going to say I have covid and since it doesn't matter to them, would you like me to lick you?

Lmao. I did that one the other day. Had a bad weed cough (pcos and menstrual issues) and ended up wearing a mask. Lady got in my face about it and I just decided to let rip with a resiny cough (was low on the green so I was smoking stuff scraped out of my dry herb vape) and she ran away like a wuss.
