Yeah the tweets often start with comments like: "I was out shopping today and saw some saddo with his mask on outside!"The fact they’re still banging on about masks when there haven’t been restrictions or rules about mask wearing in the UK for like a year now is just so sad… move on with your lives, everyone else has!! Sometimes I do actually feel sorry for them tbh, it must be exhausting having your mind continuously occupied with such worries.
I agree, they just need something to moan about when actually “freedom” day occurred well over a year ago. I’ve definitely noticed the change in attitude extends to real life too. I haven’t been able to leave my house for some time as I’m unwell but I have to wear a high quality mask for obvious reasons. Last time I went out someone genuinely took a picture of me and laughed- wouldn’t be surprised if I’m on a corner of twitter somewhere!The fact they’re still banging on about masks when there haven’t been restrictions or rules about mask wearing in the UK for like a year now is just so sad… move on with your lives, everyone else has!!

Sorry to hear that - it sounds like life is tough enough without people mocking you for looking after your health.I agree, they just need something to moan about when actually “freedom” day occurred well over a year ago.

Ugh! I'm so sorry that happened to you.I agree, they just need something to moan about when actually “freedom” day occurred well over a year ago.

Thank you, you are very right! Honestly I rarely am actually able to leave the house at the moment but on the occasions I can I am more concerned about my safety than anything else. I just find it funny that they are all for freedom of choice until something differs to their choice & also was surprised (at the time) to be openly laughed at away from the internet.Sorry to hear that - it sounds like life is tough enough without people mocking you for looking after your health.
Still, hopefully you pay them no mind. I think if someone cares enough about what others choose to do to the point they openly mock, then they must have something going on in their own lives.
Back to basics... but we'll keep our smartphones and the internet.Much as I appreciateBob Morans pieces as posted on The Other Thread l normally just the leave comments in my own head where everything sounds funnier anyway (the echo helps)....
The latest one though, be what they don't want you to be, is understandable as a back to basics simple life thing, but then you think about the details of the scene and see even that isn't immune to the depiction having the 'correct' symbology even if the somewhat 'rural gilead' vibe doesn't scream it and it feels like a creepy undercurrent, even if perhaps unintentional.
(yes, handmaid's tale viewer in case that wasn't obvious)
Both my son and I have worn masks today, on public transport and at work. We've both had a horrible streaming cold all weekend and we would hate to pass it on to anyone else if we can possibly avoid it. It's the decent thing to do, surely? Not sure why anyone thinks it's ok to point and laugh, but then again, we're now living in a world where protesters rant outside women's healthcare clinics (specifically abortion providers), and where it's apparently acceptable to hound the bereaved on Twitter, to justify anti-vax views.I agree, they just need something to moan about when actually “freedom” day occurred well over a year ago.

Dare I ask if your beloved spouse also uses that brief description for the most wonderful day of your livesI wore a mask everywhere in the lead up to my wedding. I wasn’t having that shit cancelled for anything!!
I actually used this exact phrase, pretty much daily. He laughed. And yes, my sofa is excellent for sleeping on- when everyone in the house snores you learn to buy one you can sleep on from an early ageDare I ask if your beloved spouse also uses that brief description for the most wonderful day of your lives
Also wondering whether the sofa is comfy, suspect you may be finding out soon enough
Same here at Baskin Towers although I have to admit I’m one of the culprits. I blame the vaxI actually used this exact phrase, pretty much daily. He laughed. And yes, my sofa is excellent for sleeping on- when everyone in the house snores you learn to buy one you can sleep on from an early age
Must have been the MMR because I’ve snored since I was a childSame here at Baskin Towers although I have to admit I’m one of the culprits. I blame the vax
Me too, Ive snored for about 40 years - but it was defo the Covid Vax and no one will convince me otherwiseMust have been the MMR because I’ve snored since I was a child
