Idiots or S***heads

Why are those not wearing masks not simply walking about with a big sign on their foreheads declaring, “I am an asshole”?

 


I spent a few days in Berlin last week and estimate that about a third of the passengers on the underground trains – if not more – “fake it”. Many leave the nose free; some just wear the mask around their chin. And then you get the morons, who lift the mask whilst talking on their mobile phones. But the winner was the man who took off his mask so that we could all share his sneeze output.

 

So, what should one wish all those, who knowingly and defiantly put others at risk? What should one wish all those, who do not even have the decency to respect the discomfort and the fears of others? 

 

Sometimes it is simple: A Ukrainian bishop who explained that COVID was a punishment for same-sex marriage, found himself, some weeks later, in hospital with Corona-induced-pneumonia. If the bishop gets better – having already paid the price – he should perhaps try that same-sex marriage, which he spoke about. The man is 91, so he should hurry up.
