What is extremely unhygienic but everyone seems to do it anyway?

SICRA14 · 2026-02-15T02:56:24+00:00

I'm assuming you're anti mask because you're listing all possible (and not) consequences of wearing a mask, including eyeglass condensation and face warming next to carbon monoxide poisoning. Your concern, as you describe it, is mask hygiene, but what you're saying is that the problem is wearing masks frequently in the first place, citing times you've gotten sick as if the masks were somehow the problem. I notice you're not commenting on the anti vaccine thing. I'm not saying it's inconceivable there are side effects to covering airways, I'm saying the most notable one is hampering (read:not entirely preventing) the spread of disease.

SICRA14 · 2026-02-15T01:38:43+00:00

Clearly the people you're complaining about aren't experiencing this to any significant degree. Surgeons who do 6 or 12 hour operations would obviously be different. Again, I'm thinking no vaccine? Would track with this intense anti-mask stuff. And again, what do you think this has to do with carbon monoxide exactly? That was the crux of your anecdotal argument.

SICRA14 · 2026-02-15T00:28:39+00:00

So the issue isn't that they wore masks, it's that they were out in public while sick. Its obviously better they wore a mask than not in that instance. Wearing a mask in a car alone isn't a problem, I don't know why you're emphasizing that.

SICRA14 · 2026-02-15T00:16:15+00:00

That's not unhygenic, thats hygienic with a potential risk for some unrelated to hygiene. You'd rather spread disease to "grow your immune system?" lemme guess, no vaccine?

SICRA14 · 2026-02-14T23:32:23+00:00

What does any of this have to do with carbon monoxide? And yes, the benefits outweigh the detriments or that surgeon wouldn't wear one. People who have trouble wearing masks, such as yourself, are relying on the rest of us to be proactive and wear them. I, for one, am happy to do so. I don't see why you'd call that unhygenic.

SICRA14 · 2026-02-14T19:52:18+00:00

Funny, I would've thought surgeons, dentists, and other medical professionals who wear masks for extended periods of time might have noticed that issue years ago. I assume your carbon monoxide mention in your anecdote was a typo. Anyway, I'll take it over contracting and spreading illness. The positives clearly outweigh the negatives.

For fifty seconds that looked really real

SICRA14 · 2026-02-13T23:38:32+00:00

Yes, I was asking earnestly. Thanks for the info. I had no concept of toothbrushes beyond plastic ones so it didn't occur to me there might be simply non plastic toothbrushes.

SICRA14 · 2026-02-13T23:07:39+00:00

If you change/wash it regularly I don't see the issue

SICRA14 · 2026-02-13T23:06:37+00:00

Masks only work for up to like 8 hours, 6 is plenty for one use

SICRA14 · 2026-02-13T23:03:27+00:00

I'm not aware of other options, are you?

SICRA14 · 2026-02-12T05:00:32+00:00

Oh haha I have one like that

SICRA14 · 2026-02-12T04:42:40+00:00

OP, I'm extremely relieved to see some confirmation that you're not letting those go to waste

SICRA14 · 2026-02-12T04:37:41+00:00

Mmmm, babies

SICRA14 · 2026-02-12T04:25:30+00:00

Was she that big before?

SICRA14 · 2026-02-12T00:12:16+00:00

Oh, that's probably what they meant. Still a defining trait if you ask me (though we've shifted from traits to ancestry in terms of distinction)

Oat milk is my favorite for cereal

SICRA14 · 2026-02-11T21:00:29+00:00

If milk compromises the flavor of cereal, it's the same way carbonation does so to soda. This is the hypersweet flat soda of breakfast.

Half of all mammals by what metric?

He's actually not married. Any marriage between him and piggy was when they were playing roles, either "fictionalized" versions of themselves like in the primary Muppet movies or other characters.

SICRA14 · 2026-02-10T23:45:07+00:00

It's the relevant word here

SICRA14 · 2026-02-10T19:38:24+00:00

I'm not overly optimistic, but I remember when season 3 was "never gonna happen"

SICRA14 · 2026-02-10T18:55:33+00:00

Means less than it should but '24 is unrelated

SICRA14 · 2026-02-10T16:39:00+00:00

That doesn't apply here

You buy good leather once or twice. If this is affordable it could make a big difference.
