If the recipe I'll use is any good, it will take this into account
when giving the settings for the machine. But I can always override.

It sure does and I knew that. But I almost never use butter, always
olive oil or peanut oil.

While I agree with you, if you feel you must wear a mask, might as
well do it properly if safety is your aim, for yourself or others.
Personally I feel if my number is on it, sobeit.

I merely pointed out that the use of those masks is to protect other
people from any germs you might spreading through breathing or sneezing.
If you disagree with what they have been advising about that you are
most welcome to state your objection to the content.

Ah! I understand now:-)
It was quite a few years after arriving before I heard the Canadian
"trademark". Then I heard my younger son say it a few times. He doesn't now!

You breath inside the mask, that pulls any virus on to the mask, so
when you touch the outside - even if you don't touch your face - you
likely go on to touch surfaces others may touch. That would be very
bad if say you pulled it back up as you went into a supermarket.

And my point. Touching the outside of your mask makes no
difference
to the inside of it. The virus stays on the outside where it was
in
the first place. Or on your hand, it still transfers to the
outside of the mask and the mask protects you from what's on
the outside. Think about it again.
 
Regardless, that's what I do and it makes sense. So far, so good.
I do also carry alcohol wipes and use them after stores and also
wash hands after getting home.
 
My point here...ok to touch your mask from the outside to pull
it up and down. Just don't touch the inside with possibly
contaminated hands.

You're missing my point. If you are wearing one, the minute you pull
it down it is no longer effective, you've touched it and it should now
be disinfected or washed. That's why some people are seen driving with
them on, they are the people who know how to properly wear one, if
that's what you feel you should do.

4 hours with your mouth open would be cruel. Even one hour
leaves you with a sore jaw, just holding it open so long.

Yes! That sounds hellish:(

The primary purpose of wearing a mask in public is to protect others
from yourself. There is a certain amount of moisture in the air you
exhale and a virus could possibly go for a ride on it. The bigger
problem is coughing and sneezing, which will blow out larger chunks,
blobs of mucus and saliva. The mask should hold that stuff back. All
that yuckiness will be affixed to your mask, probably inside and out.
It's just not getting blown out into a cloud that travels a couple yards
and hangs there for a while.

My guess is that she said it to my wife because she was the only other white lady in there. Everyone had masks on and were struck speechless. My guess is that she was one of those nutty/pushy

You can always just pinch the outside of the mask to lower it
down to your chin or neck. Then raise it up the same way.
 
Might depend on the type of mask. The ones I have don't hook
around the ears. It's a molded cup mask that has straps that
go around you head and neck. Good for reusing many times too.
Just let them air dry to remove the moisture from your
breath, then store for the next use. I keep one in my van
and also one at home if I walk to the nearby convenience
store. (I also still have 3rd unused mask in box)
 
Those are they ones we have, but D. cleans them with a UVC
wand.
 
Any bacteria or virus on them will be dead within 1-3 days max.
These will last a long time just for the occasional store use.
 
This is a pic of the ones I use:
https://www.hostpic.org/images/2006031558400088.jpg
 
They work well but are thick and annoying. Even in a store
I'll occasionally pinch it and pull it a bit off my face
just to get a breath or two of fresh air. The moment I exit
the store, it goes down around my neck.

I once endured several hours of a root canal job that was not completed
because it turned out that the tooth was cracked. It was a real pain in
the butt to be sitting there with my mouth open all that time and
choking and gagging on the dental dam. The next time I went for a root
canal I opted to be sedated. I had to go in 45 minutes early. The
endontist came in said hello asked how I was doing and said she was
going to get started. It some point I felt pain but didn't care. Then
she said she was almost done. It seemed like it had taken 20 minutes but
my wife said I had been in there for 2.5 hours.

I just typed "homeless man with gun" in Google and linked the picture
without reading what it was really about.

I'd say there's a correlation between 'no sense of humor', 'taking
yourself too seriously' and 'putting people in your killfile'. Prime
examples: McBiddy and Dave.
 
 
>And now, the same crybabies will still yell at my joking...

If you only ever say sweet things that nobody can be offended by,
you'll never have to defend yourself by saying you were joking. But do
you want to be that guy?
