Masks required in Raleigh

You think that a fart can only exit through clothing and not reenter? I think you're going to be very disappointed.

Pressure makes all the difference...

Mac5005 I am not aware of any. NCGS 14-269 which is the ccw statue doesn't say anything about wearing a mask and carrying. Now a town or city may have their own ordinance against it.

What about:
14-12.8. Wearing of masks, hoods, etc., on public property.
No person or persons shall in this State, while wearing any mask, hood or device whereby the person, face or voice is disguised so as to conceal the identity of the wearer, enter, or appear upon or within the public property of any municipality or county of the State, or of the State of North Carolina. (1953, c. 1193, s. 7.)

Cue @RatLabGuy being compelled to highlight "intent to conceal identity"

I hate wearing the masks cause I am fat and they make me sweat even more than my fat ass already does. Plus my breath goes straight into my eyes which is also annoying. I also understand that the back and forth that the CDC has said about masks first not being effective and then they are effective has people doubting everything they say. Lets not even talk about the tap dance they did about hand sanitizer and surfaces.

That being said, I don't see being asked to wear a mask is anymore of an infringement on my rights than being asked to wear clothes in public. Its not that big of a deal, and if it has even the slightest chance of keeping me or someone else safe, I can put up with the hassle it causes me for the short amount of time I am in a store or other public place.
 
I have a medical issue and cannot wear a mask. You cannot ask me my issue under HIPPA and ADA. I can sue the shite out of you if you do.

no different the having a little horse as a support animal flying on a plane.

But you can be refused service. Of course, you STILL have to make that cake for Larry and Steve...but you won't be allowed to shop at a store with a mask policy

Will I though? They have to make disabled person accessible. Maybe they will create an autonomous zone for non mask wearing people?

I have seen stores already refusing to allow non-masked people entrance to their stores and actually they have been doing it for some time now.
 
Went back to the ABC store today...used my 18 month old’s rain jacket...

Wrong, they are on a mechanical mask. Some call it a ventilator. You know, it's that .0003%

Except some hospitals are too stupid to do that .... Even in Winston Salem!!!

What about vacuum?

Nowhere near the same.
When you fart, you are pushing the gas out a small hole. Not a lot of pressure, maybe 1psi depending on dinner bean content, but its concentrated and 100% of the force is behind 100% of the gas. Pressure pushes it through, you know it makes it through the fabric b/c you can smell it.
On the inhaling side though, the gas is already dissipated into the air. You're pulling vacuum through your nose, but that vacuum is immediately diminished and spread around a large surface area of the underside of the mask. The vacuum on the outside of the mask at any single point is very small, and is pulling in mostly air from everywhere and only a tiny bit of fart. Plus on top of that you have the filtering effect of the mask to stop of the fart particles from coming in.

That was a great read. Especially "If an 80-kilogram person, floating around in space bare-assed, emitted a fart, the reaction would propel him in the opposite direction at a speed of 13 centimeters per day. "
 
All this talk about farts and the cooler weather we have been having lately has me wondering something. You know how when its cold outside you can see your breath? If you fart and its cold outside, can you see your fart? I have never been able to spin around fast enough to tell. Has anyone else?

Dear God I hope not.
You can see your breath bc it is full of wator vapor that is condensing as you breathe (hot air into cold air).
If you had that kind of vapor in your farts your pants would be naaaaaasty

This is awesome. Now I really want to relive my childhood fantasy to be an astronaut......I'm not average in this department. Everyone I spent quality time eventually says so!
 
Just get a rorschach mask. No one will come within 6 ft of you guaranteed. Plus it will keep the rona from getting in your tear ducts.

If I have to come to Raleigh I’ll wear my koh mask. This way I get another round of valley fever and keep everyone away with my coughing.

i am waiting for you to come to raleigh :)
 
I'd estimate compliance at 40%. It doesn't seem any different than two weeks ago.
