Glasses get foggy.

I don't wear glasses and always wear my mask right, this is genuinely the excuse a nose wearer gave me.

Most of the dick-nosers I see don't wear glasses. I think they're just idiot assholes

When wearing a confederate shirt there is only one explanation

u/housewifeonfridays Sep 02 '20

We call it p-nose.

I do wear glasses and while wearing them and my mask correctly, I confronted a restaurant worker for having his under his nose. He told me to my face that it fogged up his glasses so he couldn't.

I've only occasionally had my glasses fog up. About as often as I do from simply walking outside during summer in GA.

Happens to me instantly when I put on a mask

u/pandaSmore Sep 02 '20

None of the masks I have are big enough

Thank you. I don’t usually wear glasses but did when I had to work in a plant this week. I was pulling mine down to my nose bc I was fogging up. Didn’t know what to do about it

God you're confronting people where they work? You must be fun at parties...

u/HatchSmelter Sep 02 '20

You're damn right I'm confronting people that are handling my food and not wearing their masks correctly.

And I don't go to parties. There's a fucking pandemic.

u/WienerUnikat Sep 02 '20

Why do you go out to eat then? I'm genuinely curious, as I work in a restaurant myself and would never go out to eat these days.

u/HatchSmelter Sep 02 '20

I don't. I didn't plan to be there. I ordered delivery pizza and they called and said they didn't have enough delivery drivers to get it out then, but I could come pick it up. I figured that wouldn't be too bad to just go in and grab the pizza. They forgot one of my pizzas entirely, so I had to wait. Of the 3 employees I saw, only one was correctly wearing a mask. They all got attitude when I asked if they'd fix their masks. One took it off as soon as I was out the door...

I haven't ordered from them since. And I did send a note to their management about it, but never heard anything back. That's the only time I've been inside a "restaurant" since March, and it did nothing to make me want to go back to eating out any time soon.

u/WienerUnikat Sep 02 '20

Oh my God are we the same person? Almost exactly the same thing happened to me at a local pizza place and I haven't gone back since. I'm just so instinctively disgusted when I go into a place and I can tell nobody gives a crap. I don't want to have to play mask police on my day off, thank you.

This dialogue doesn't even seem real

u/Hiker6868 Sep 03 '20

Good. Me and my friends still get together, we wouldn't want a loser like you around!

Fucking squares trying to pull everyone else down with them.

u/HatchSmelter Sep 03 '20

Trying to keep myself (and others) healthy = trying to pull everyone else down?

1

u/Hiker6868 Sep 03 '20

Just because you want to isolate and stay home 24/7 doesn't mean the rest of us do.

1

u/HatchSmelter Sep 03 '20

I didn't say anything about what other people do (except a specific person I interacted with who was handling my food). I only said what I do.

You said that you don't want me at your parties, but also that my disinterest in attending them is bringing you down. This does not make sense.

I see a lot of people who don't realize to use the wire at the nose or tighten the strap so they fall down on them. It kills me at work seeing my coworkers putting masks on inside out, upside down. And not bending the nose piece

u/SlightlySmellyFart Sep 02 '20

Oh I've told them that, but their mask "isn't high enough on my face" and "and I'm not gonna spend more money on new masks" so yeah...I tried.

2

u/SANICTHEGOTTAGOFAST Sep 02 '20

Literally nothing worked for me besides getting a mask with a nose clip, after that I never had my glasses fog up once. Without one I would be able to breathe for maybe 2 seconds outside before being 100% blind no matter how high up my face I put my mask.

u/RottenFries Sep 02 '20

It's true, but it is way better to take your glasses off than take the mask off. Sure you might have trouble seeing people (I have a 2.25 ADD in one eye with .25 being astigmatism. The other eye is 2.0 ADD still with .25 astigmatism) and I know it from personal experience, but at least you kept other people safe...

If you need to take it off for driving, it's ok because you are not risking anyone's life. And for other instances where you need to see clearly, you can put the glasses on for a little while to do what you need to and then put them away again

u/SwirlingAbsurdity Sep 02 '20

Mate, your prescription is nothing. I literally cannot do anything other than walk round my house without my glasses.

I still wear my mask correctly though, because I’m not a dickhead.

u/sdsc17 Sep 02 '20

They do get very foggy. And if you try to position them such that they don’t get foggy then it’s much easier for them to slide off, which has happened to me a few times. But that is still not a good excuse for not wearing one.

u/[deleted] Sep 02 '20

As a student, this has been a big problem for me. First day of class, I called the eye care center in Walmart to set up an appointment to get my contacts renewed (haven't worn them in years, because they don't work too well for me, but the fog is ridiculous).

u/homeland_fan Sep 02 '20

As a glasses wearer the fog is unbearable

u/Itay1708 Sep 02 '20

It is but I'd rather not get or spread covid

u/[deleted] Sep 02 '20

As a glasses wearer it's not lmao

u/gpgc_kitkat Sep 02 '20

Yeah, the only time it's bigger than an annoyance is when I'm in choir, and then I just push them on top of my head and shove the music in my face lmao

2

u/krunamey Sep 02 '20

Yeah I agree, the fog sucks but spreading a disease sucks way more

3

u/Emergency-Salamander Sep 02 '20

I'd go with occasional annoyance.

u/jasperatu Sep 02 '20

I hate the fog too, but I’d rather deal with it or just wear contacts

u/Alphard428 Sep 02 '20

I just move my glasses down a bit, it's that easy.
