"Wearing a mask is like trying to keep a fart in your trousers" is a long-winded way of telling the world that your breath smells like ass

Worst part is is that it's oddly accurate? The mask lets air through but not all the airborne saliva droplets in your breath that carry COVID in them. The trousers (though more accurately underwear) don't stop the smell or the gas, but they do stop the poop particles from escaping.

@@yaredscott3134 it stops them enough for the particles not to reach 6 feet out even nearly as easily as without a mask, and it's already been thoroughly proven masks work to reduce transmission, across the medical field there is a consensus on that. Governments don't tend to enforce mask mandates for a laugh, it's not a politically popular idea, it's only done out of necessity.

I love the fact the guy made no excuses for himself, just said "erm yeah it's not one of my better moves". Like, while I am confused about why he glued his head to the road, I gotta give him credit that he is honest in that he really felt he didn't think it through

I'm also confused why he glued his head - a hand would have done just fine! (This tactic is used because rather than being able to simply pick protestors up and move them out of the road/arrest them - British police then have to wait around untill they can source some of the solution that dissolves super glue.... Russell's fortunately wrong about him having to cut himself free with scissors... British police dissolve the glue before arresting people fairly routinely at protests... But I guess that wouldn't have been as funny 🤔

It's actually a very valid point about transmission of the virus. Masks are ineffective and vectors for transmission, primarily because you actually CAN catch it from someone farting and/or just simply breathing. It can also infect through the eyes and ears, but nobody is covering up their eyes and ears to slow transmission. So covering the mouth is basically a pointless effort where we pick an orifice we think is the main source of transmission, ignoring the health and quality of life consequences that entails, whilst all other types of transmission are ignored too.
@Snowshowslow

@@pseudonayme7717 Well... We pick two orifices that are otherwise uncovered and that are actually big factors in both emitting virus particles ánd taking them in. So while masks are far from foolproof they have been shown to have a sizable effect when everyone wears them. But I am sure everyone will thank you to keep your farts in too.

To be fair: He was a rich arsehole, always on the side of rich arseholes, and a staunch republican. Sneaky bastard about it too: He wanted the people (well... burghers) to vote on a single powerful leader, and when it became clear that the people didn't want to vote for some smarmy bastard who was just going to rob them blind, he tricked them by taking over the "education" of the then young William III and teach him to avoid power. Anyway, if you want examples of terrifying Dutch people, look no further than that one time Dutch moms noticed their kids were dying in traffic more and more. kzread.info/dash/bejne/hY183JtseLuwdrQ.html

Wow. I know the Austrians with the toilet brushes are kind of played for laughs, but I'll be honest; that's a pretty genius way to protest without getting arrested. I'd demand a full HAZMAT suit if I was a cop tasked with breaking that up, and I'd probably still need to take an hour-long shower after. "NO, YOU go out there and get the rest of them! God, I can still feel all the bristles..."

There IS good logic in wearing trousers AND UNDERPANTS to contain farts. We may still smell farts, but every so often, there is a small amount of waste expelled into underpants. If we weren't wearing underpants and/or trousers, those larger elements would be expelled into air, to fall onto ground, on seats, etc. That is the reason we developed underwear. It keeps our trousers, dresses cleaner, so that many people are happy to wear trousers, etc, multiple timesbefore washing. Anyone with a dodgy belly is even more likely to slightly soil their clothing, and without underpants/ trousers - and there are many who 'go commando,' so if we didn't wear trousers when we farted, there would be a hell of a lot more faecal matter on seats, etc. So the stupid chant is in fact, truly stupid.
