Stumbled across it last night. Props to whoever came up with it.

Unfortunately, face masks are the new normal way of life. :(

Short term, maybe a year or so. Long term we should be okay.

I hope you're right!

I’m in an optimistic mood today. Tomorrow I’ll probably be back to my usual cynicism of “Oh God, it’ll take 10 years to develop a vaccine”

OH Nuts!

My guess is two, but that’s still a long time to live like this.

I'd guess you're right. Within two years is probable.

Face mask and smilie do not belong in the same phrase, it is too bad that monster is one of the official smilies here now. I am thankful to live in a state that does not tyrannize its members into wearing face masks, went for a walk in the park and no one else was wearing one either. If they can't come up with an effective vaccine by the end of 2020 and drag it out to next year, the response team really is led by morons. But then with the totally inept and greedy CDC in charge, they don't care about a vaccine any time soon. Those lying scum even admitted on their site now that several deaths that had been listed as covid-19 were actually flu. :mad:

Remain calm, try to find your meds, and turn off Fox News. We’ll try to send you help as soon as possible.

By the way, record spikes in Covid cases are occurring, so not the best time to spew nonsense

Morons are the selfish jackasses who refuse to wear a mask in public, possibly infecting others

Norway recommends the exact opposite of the lousy US leadership: everyone healthy and younger than the at risk age is recommended to NOT wear a mask in public. The CDC is full of lies and manipulation, and they have gotten the spineless media here to attempt fearmongering the whole country into wearing masks. CDC run labs were found full of contamination, and they illegally suppressed more accurate testing kits from independent companies so those greedy scumbags could make a profit off this. So no, I don't trust a thing those corrupt liars at the CDC say or how high the count of cases supposedly is, and not wearing a mask I do not see as infecting others. A thread about masks and vaccines didn't belong on the Site Feedback board in the first place and should have been kept to the Politics board.

I saw it on Twitter and in e-mails. It was added about two months ago. It's surprising nobody noticed it before. It's just a smilie. I didn't think it would be so controversial. If you don't want to use it, that's fine.

This thread has gotten way off topic. If you want to discuss politics, take it to the politics board.
