There must be something in the air, and I think I know what it is…
I just saw a video of Benedict Cumberbatch reading something first written in 2011, but my experience with this has been post-pandemic, where it seems like all manners and rules are completely gone, everywhere [1]. Apparently this was a thing ten years earlier, though I was blessedly unaware. And then there was this blog at one of the better websites…
My thought since the eternal March 20, 2020 has been that I am never going to the gym again without a mask because every day, there’s someone who thinks that the appropriate function for the hand drier is to dry their balls [2]. Pandemic or no, not ever going into the gym again without a mask.
[1] don’t get me started on people who just drive with their brights on all the time, and get angry when you give them a courtesy blink. They know they are blinding people, and they mean to do it, and they don’t care that it makes everyone else a more dangerous driver. For example.
[2] and then there are the people who never wash their hands, or wipe a bench.
