Benefits of wearing a mask (not so obvious)
« on: May 14, 2021, 12:28:07 am »
Of course by now we know why we should be wearing masks but I have experienced some other benefits of wearing one.  For example.  I have noticed I don't smell other people's stinky breath when they talk with their mask on.  Masks definitely keep the stench in.  I don't have to wear make up for work.  Don't have to shave, pluck, wax facial hair as often.  Recently I had a cold sore and the mask hid that very well and other facial blemishes one might have. 
 
Any other not so obvious benefits to add to the list?

Just being safe from the other people who have not been vaccinated.

Saving money because of buying less make-up and facial product.

You can rob a bank or commit another crime and no one will be able to identify you.  8)

I have been vaccinated but I will wear a mask again during flu season. I don't know anyone that had the flu this past year. What a bonus that was for using a mask.

Obviously you should just stay at home so your stinky breath does not offend other people.

I keep seeing where the PD puts pics of FB asking who can identify this person. And they have a mask on and a hat and all you can see are their eyes. Unless they also wear sun glasses.
