So never unmask, right? Covid will be around for our lifetimes.

No, will eventually become endemic like the flu and kill significantly fewer people. But, whatever, you obviously haven't been paying attention.

Again, enjoy unmasking in the grocery stores and retail stores and whenever else public you go and increasing exposure to the workers. That's a whole lot worse than being a "miser."

Thank you! I will enjoy it very much!

No, in December. He had to do his internship this past summer as everything was cancelled the summer of 2020. So, this Fall he graduates. People are flying in for his graduation.

Congratulations to your family. I hope everyone enjoys a wonderful celebration.

The mask wearing in this area is just over the top. Enough already. If you want to wear one, go ahead. But it's not necessary to mandate that everyone wear one. I was in Towson over the weekend and it was so nice to see people not wearing masks but also being respectful of personal space.

I am sure it matters where you are talking about but we just traveled to several spots in NE and mask wearing was just like here. I am not sure what the rules were but everyone was masked in stores. Servers were masked in restaurants. Most businesses requested masks. I assume TX would be quite different but lots of the country is just like here too,

In a few days none of you will be mandated to mask and I guess it will be fun for you to grocery shop without masks, so go for it. You can already go out to eat without wearing masks while eating, so not quite so sure why folks are so happy they still get to eat without masks.

I won't be able to be there, or spend my money there unless they have pickup of some kind, but hope the rest of you have all the maskless fun you want.

Of course we don't have control over you masking. Just as you have no control over us not masking. If you are scared of being a bit sick and you think that warrants you avoiding grocery store, good for you. All I can say is you should feel grateful that you can afford such economic privilege.

Getting pickup at the grocery store is free to less than $5 a month, depending on the store. I've checked. It's not a huge "economical privilege." Just doing my best to save on groceries. More than covers the pickup fee, if there is one. With a combined income under 100k, I'm probably one of the poorer pps here.

Sadly, the workers at the stores (who make less than we do) won't be able to protect themselves as well --which is the real economic disadvantage.

A friend of mine, who works retail in a maskless state, just lost 10 days of income because she caught Covid (while vaccinated), probably at work. She had a mandatory, unpaid, 10 day quarantine, and I ended up sending her money for food on our measley (for the DC area) income. Those are the real people who don't have "economic privilege." But, by all means,enjoy infecting them with your breakthrough Covid cases you catch at brunch.

You don't tip???
What a miserable person you are, all around! Scared of living, yet a nasty miser. I can just picture you making everyone around you miserable.

The grocery store I go to forbids tipping, it's their policy. Theobe cart guy who was requesting tips, which I gave him, was fired. Even though, I still discreetly tip on holidays.

It's really weird that you attack someone within hhi of 100k in the DC area for not tipping at a grocery store that officially doesn't "allow" tipping.

So one pp thinks I am a miser for being DC poor and not tipping when I have a chronic health condition, and another pp thinks I have "economic" privilege. Got it.

OMG! You truly are a misery itself! Yes, we are all just feeling so sad for your poor 100K per year personage!

Didn't you get vaccinated? Don't you believe in vaccines? I know, I know. People like you underestimate the effectiveness of vaccines. I actually believe in science.

I remember when we were unmasked over the summer, I went to the Safeway in Olney. About 50% of the customers still masked. Meanwhile 100% of the employee staff were unmasked.

So lets stop pretending that you're all doing this for those poor grocery store workers. They can (and should, if they feel so inclined) take their own precautions

You just use that line to try to feel superior

5 days down ,2 to go. Looking forward to working out unmasked later this week.

It wasn't like it is here in Rhode Island, Boston nor Chicago when I was in those places the past two months. Yes, there were mask mandates but most people completely half-assed it.

We all know it's a joke and anti-science to wear your mask to the restaurant table then immediately remove it for the entire meal like everyone else, then wear it to walk back out. It was nice to not even have to fake the hypocrisy.

If your friend needed food money after a 10 day mandatory quarantine, she should have been wearing the mask. This is what the makers fail to grasp. If you want to or need to mask, DO IT! A no mask mandate doesn't mean anyone who wants to wear a mask is forbidden. Just a little common sense people!

The one thing I'm always laughing about inside is people walking around with their mouths shut and mask on. And then they sit down and start talking loud and laughing without their mask. When they're doing that, they're expelling a lot more disease.

Its not $5 a month as they generally charge a premium to order online and most of the more affordable stores don't have online ordering and you still have to tip. We shop at Aldi's and Lidl and there is no delivery or pick up outside instacart which charges double in store prices. Its great that you can afford to pay a premium and get things delivered but many of us cannot. I very rarely go to Safeway or Giant and never to Whole Foods, Moms or any of those places because of cost.

The really sad thing of all this is these same adults behaving poorly are raising a entire new generation of selfish kids who will be selfish adults.

Common sense is wearing a mask to protect others as well as yourself. Your not wearing a mask could kill someone else. Sad how you don't care about anyone but yourself. And, the problem too is those fake masking don't care and they are the same people who refuse to distance at stores.

"Common sense" does not reject science, the CDC or Montgomery Health Department.

You are as bad as the "common sense" anti vaxxers, covid deniers. Different side of the same coin.

The most important thing you can do is get vaccinated. Second best is social distancing. The cloth mask is just cosplay for hypochondriacs.

I take it you don't live in the DC area.

If you do, and make less than 100k a year, enjoy not wearing your mask and not being able to pay your hospital bills and / or your rent, if you get sick with Covid. I'll send my friend in the red state food and rent money when she gets sick, since she is mandated to not wear a mask at work, but not sending a thing to you.

The median household income in DC is $86,000/year. Your $100,000/year puts you solidly in the upper half of households by income.
