How Are You Protesting Anti-COVID Measures?

[Matt]

Matt, please hang yourself.

I'll try to reduce my post size if that's what you're driving at, but it's just a matter of typing fast.  So literally, within a few minutes of typing, I have a novel.

If your post is a matter of worrying about Covid-19, does this stand to reason that you are pro-mask, or otherwise in an at-risk group for dying of COVID?  The latter I can empathize with, but it's not just a matter of wearing a mask - the small and medium business sector has lost $200 billion thus far and counting, while the 2,604 global billionaires of increased their net wealth by $1 trillion.

As of September 23rd of this year, 2,627 Canadians under the age of 70 have died of Covid-19 out of a population of 32,921,409 who are in that age range.

That's 0.00798% of the population under 70.

Put another way, that means 99.992% of the Canadian population under 70 has thus far survived this global pandemic.

Not to mention the fact that Canada has gone into more debt in one year than in the previous 30 years combined.

Or the fact that the average age of a person dying of Covid-19 globally is 84.8 years old, which is higher than the human life expectancy in every country in the world, including Hong Kong, which has the highest global combined-gender life expectancy at 84.7.

Or the fact that Canada is accruing $1 billion in deficit spending daily could be used to literally build ten hospitals each day to deal with Covid-19 at a cost of $100 million per hospital - or we could save 1,000 Canadians daily who need health procedures costing $1 million.  Procedures such as organ transplants which add decades to a person's life.  Meanwhile, 94% of people are already dead by the average age a person dies of Covid-19.  Would you be scared of a virus that kills people who average 94.8 years old, rather than 84.8?  How about 100 years old?  How about 110 years old?  Would you still be afraid of such a virus?

...

Anyway, I'm not, but the fact that lawyers and police don't seem to understand the law is sort of a big deal to me.

Either way, this can't go on for another 18 months, or the entire world will be bankrupt.

But then again...maybe that's the point.

I would wear a mask anywhere if you would put in a 50-word limiter on Matty Aspy’s posts.

That actually sounds about right.

I've been telling myself that for almost four years now.  I think I'm going to start that, starting now.

I put the over/under of me lasting a day at about 50%.  But I'll give it a shot.

^43 words.  Ok, maybe 0.5%.

Change nothing.

[Matt]

I've seen it all

wearing a full body painting jumpsuits  like a snuggie in airports

wearing those funny plastic face shields! cause everyone knows germs cant get under or around the shields ultra secure barrier

face shield plus cloth mask, epic bafoonery

maskies wearing 2 masks one over the other

constantly touching the mask pulling it up over nose while being a bartender or server with hands full of dishwater and all sorts of shit

walking outside and smoking with mask just lowered under mouth

the thing that makes me sad is seeing a busload of little kids get off a bus after school wearing them

these poor kids are just doing what their sheep parents told them, and the media told their parents. sad stuff

very sad

in a few years maybe less , people will say wtf were those maskies thinking?

even though they were one of them

Exactly my thoughts.  That's what I like about you, epic - you stand your ground.

Sometimes standing one's ground is not good.  I've seen dumb people do it at completely inappropriate times [like in 2013, when Reese Witherspoon was arrested on video for drinking and driving, and apparently felt that her celebrity status qualified her to do so], but this is not just a matter of "Just wear a mask".  The entire world is literally heading towards complete economic collapse, and doing it voluntarily.  We're hand-washing so much, that we're not even giving our immune systems a chance to work.  It's like people don't even realize we have immune systems.

It's like a tragicomedy to me...but maybe leaning more towards tragedy.

[epic is back]

germs dont matter

money does

once people lose it all no one will give a shit about a mask

prepare my nikka

[robcguns]

I only wear a mask at the store.

Same

It’s bad enough your insipid posts are way, way too long, but then some squid’s dick comes along and quotes the fucking thing.

Makes me want to punch Chrissy Tiegen in the fat face with an anvil.

[epic is back]

you do need to cut down on the long posts my friend from Canada matt

just save what you thinking about for another thread

or surmise more

or just say fuck off

drink my piss,   a nice warm bucket of it
much more effective than a long scientific post

[Matt]

LOL!

Change nothing.

Hahaha, I don't even think I can. 

I try to manage my autism for the comfort for others by adjusting where I sense universal effectiveness in doing so.  One rule I generally stick to on Getbig is not to START threads.  Thread hijacking is one thing - board hijacking is next level, in terms of lack of online/board etiquette.

The tragedy of my life [and an aspect of many autistics] is that I mainly speak out on things that I sense many people refuse to speak out on out of fear.  On YouTube, I literally post next to nothing, whereas while using my real name online, I post all the time.  It's because online - where people are given the protection of anonymity - they are not as afraid to speak their minds.

I commented on this video just for kicks, but check the Like to Dislike ratio, and read the comments.  Everyone is already saying what I want to say, so I don't have much of a need to say anything:

[Never1AShow]

I've made several masks that technically comply with the mask mandate, but allow for actual breathing, like out of cheesecloth or with slits cut in them so that I can get into places that require a mask (like the gym).

Got one funny look from front desk girl, but she let me pass.  Several gym members complimented me on it.

[ThisisOverload]

I wear a mask only when I go into an establishment that requires them. Here in NM they will call the Cops immediately if you come inside without a mask and refuse to leave. Many larger stores have real Cops sitting out front checking to make sure you have a mask. I've only seen one altercation over a mask, the Cop was being really nice about it and i could tell he didn't really want to deal with it, but he arrested a man for refusing to leave a grocery store after being told to leave multiple times.

I travel for work a lot and each place is different, some places don't enforce the mask mandates at all, while others are extremely strict about it.

I see people driving with them every day, walking their dog outside with a mask. Even the local news reporters wear the mask while being on camera outside with nobody else around. It's a bit silly.

The last 4 months i've been on a plane 6 times, it's funny how serious some people take it. There was a guy wearing a full blown respirator mask on the plane, like the ones you wear around toxic chemicals. One lady had a real hazmat suit on. Another lady wouldn't touch anything on the plane unless she wiped it with a Clorox wipe first.

Oddly enough, at my office it is taken very seriously. The guy who takes it the most serious and barely even leaves his house got the Rona a few weeks ago. Go figure.

I'm not worried about it, but i'm not much for protesting something that really doesn't bother me at all. But i don't have to wear one all day long like some people. Protesting the mask mandate at this point is a little silly. I think some people are just looking for attention.

you live in a democratic shithole

of course they wear them and freak out

fear is not a virtue

even though they are trying to convince you it is

[Teutonic Knight 1]

I would wear a mask anywhere if Ron would put in a 50-word limiter on Matty Aspy’s posts.

Matt, is managing your autism kind of like giving a guy 1/2 a blowjob?

Because it sure looks like you get halfway and then say “fuck it, I might as well finish.”

[Matt]

It’s bad enough your insipid posts are way, way too long, but then some squid’s dick comes along and quotes the fucking thing.

Makes me want to punch Chrissy Tiegen in the fat face with an anvil.

LOL!!  Sorry to laugh, but your post reminds me of my first post on EliteFitness - in 2001.  Someone quoted it, and the next guy replied "Geez - reading Matt's post the first time was enough of a chore, but you quoting it and me reading the whole thing again was pure torture", haha.

Oddly enough...I think the guy actually did read my posts twice.  I feel I have decent content, but I can't get a flipping handle on post length.  I seriously need to make it a top three new year's resolution, after general health and lifestyle stuff.

Walter - what I like about your posts is that you get straight to the point.  As long as you are like that in real life, and are a good judge of knowing when to turn that on or off, I think it's a good quality people have.  Normally, I feel like I'm surrounded by peasants obeying a monarchy.

Cool live podcast on COVID right now:

[Matt]

I just saw some daft cu nt jogging in one

Haha, oh FFS.  I didn't realize my younger sister lives in England now with her English husband, and she said things are way more insane in Canada than over there.

I hope that's true.

A few hours back, I was talking to my dad about having the police called on me today - he told me he had the Mike Tyson vs. Roy Jones Jr. fight, and asked me if I wanted it on a thumb drive.  I said yes, and opened it, only to find the thumbnail for the fight below.

So literally the most dominant alpha males in human history wearing a bacteria-laden face thongs - did everyone's balls just drop off?

I'm looking forward to watching this fight tonight...although given how long it took Mike Tyson to take his t-shirt off at the weigh-ins, I'm not expecting much.  I wish we get get a time machine to put prime Tyson against UFC's JON Jones today.

NOT that I would know anything about giving blowjobs, but I would say that I do say that.

What's with all these stories online of "straight" guys giving blowjobs...isn't the correct term "bisexual"?  The more articles I read, the more I feel like I am the only straight man on the planet.  Since autism tends to be associated with extremely masculine things [not necessarily "tough" things, but just how chess and physics are both dominated by men], I thought autism would be correlated with heterosexuality.

Apparently the opposite is true.

But I am just barely on the spectrum.  Max, I am one point in.  Getbiggers can test themselves here - it's a valid test:

Cool live podcast on COVID right now:

Matt, the main two things you need to know about your post content:

(1) No one gives a monkey fuck about your opinion.

(2) No one cares one iota about what goes on in Thunder Bay Ontario.

From now on think of scrubbing your posts in the way I read an ESFitness or PrimePedo post, “first I skip over the bullshit and then I skip over the liberal stupidity and gayness”, once I’ve done that I read what is left.

Try posting that way you spastic muppet.

[Rusty Trombone]

Matt, please hang yourself.

Imagine Matt's suicide letter

[AbrahamG]

Covid mortality rate is 1.96% last time I checked. 

112,000 cars cross the Golden Gate bridge daily.  The average car carries 1.7 passengers. 

If the mortality rate for crossing the Golden Gate bridge was also 1.96% then 3,731 people would die crossing it per day. 

I don't know about the rest of you getbiggers, but I'd take the ferry instead.  Or, wear a mask and stop whining.

[epic is back]

You should “ mask up “and not drive across the bridge

Jump off

Then you don’t have to be afraid anymore

[AbrahamG]

Not afraid personally.  I'm afraid for others.  I'd like to see everyone make the smallest of sacrifices.  Mask up.  Stay home.  Get carry out (which will help support businesses).  Stop whining.  Be positive and get back to some semblance of normal.  Not sure how "poking the bear" is benefitting anyone.

[epic is back]

Why didn’t you mask up in December of last year ?

You got me sick

Completely irresponsible of you

Oh and I am the bear
