  1. “ Why don’t we just cut to the chase and create designer hamster balls to roll around in all day so nothing can ever endanger us again, ever!”

    The final word pretty well sums it all up.

    1. Remember the Hamster Habitrail the 1980’s hamster habitat where you could watch whatever your furry friend was doing during his busy day? Now with that image fresh in your mind put yourself in his place, welcome to what our Professional class, smug overlords have in store for us.

      1. So I guess seminal music festivals … such as the 1970 Isle of Wight music festival which gave us the once GREAT “Free” with Kostoff shredding the blues guitar in the tune Mr. Big.

        Hint: make certain you watch Kostoff’s guitar solo starting at 2:30. So I guess mass spectacles such as these which become historic touchstones for a generation busy CREATING and LOVING one another … instead of living in self-imposed FEAR and CANCELLATION of all NORMAL human contact.

  2. It really makes her eyes pop, don’t you think? This could be the next trend!

    1. I suppose the bug-eyed look could catch on. Though AOC really has it locked up.

      My first thought on seeing this picture was “cosplay Ms. Piggy?”

  3. Black Horn-rimmed glasses and heavy black plastic eyebrows not fucking included, you stupid goofy, trendy morons. Etc.

    1. Well, those are actually useful. If you want to do the mask thing, they are better than an N95 (because they protect your eyes as well), but beyond that, with the appropriate filters they will keep out the CS gas and other nasty stuff when Antifa comes calling in your neighborhood.

      The glorified nose clip? Not so much …

      1. Why not go full commando….Scott Air Pack, with the steel tank instead of fiberglass? Get in shape, go jogging, too. Be like a fireman/person wear the “street” garb.

    1. That market sector appears to be booming …
      will it be shipped in *ahem* discrete packaging ?

  4. I am guessing the idea here is to not talk or ever open your mouth. Just sit back, look stupidly at one another while wearing a Miss Piggy nose devise. It makes sense since if you buy one of these things, you are too stupid to say anything worth hearing anyway.

  5. 2019 called, and asked if we could PLEASE call it COVID20 since well, timing.

    Only one bat and a couple of Chinamen died in 2019.

  6. shove one up yer arse, and filter the farts going out, they could even add a sent additive to make farts smell better!

  7. Everytime I see that picture my brain screams; “Why did they pixelate her nose?!”

    Then I think she(they) looks like a cocaine addicted 1980’s Florida lawyer after one too many reconstructions.

    That picture looks like it was taken on a catwalk. Is it covid-stoopid-runway-season already? Welcome Lenka, modelling the latest in coke-mask technology, with built in lil’ potato brand internment camp rape nose whistle (guanteed louder than your uncle Bob after Thanksgiving dinner).

    1. alecincgy – I think her nose looks like she has been playing Minecraft too long

  8. I see this Covid nonsense as a big behavioural experiment. Now that the politicians know they can manipulate people into surrendering their rights for “public health”, what won’t they surrender or do? Up next the world’s biggest existential threat, global warming. You’ll be told where you can go, how far and when. You’ll be told what to eat, what you can buy, where you can live and be limited by carbon credit cards. The sheeple will go along willingly… masked up and 3 metres apart.

    1. B.A.D. – I learn something every time you post… I have some ADD tendancies. Tycho Brahe was Danish. AOC says the Danes have a $22/hour minimum wage. But even he left Denmark for Prague. Maybe because the minimum wage was too high? No? Anyways, Wikipedia says “Tycho’s body has been exhumed twice, in 1901 and 2010, to examine the circumstances of his death and to identify the material from which his artificial nose was made…and that the artificial nose was more likely made of brass than silver or gold, as some had believed in his time.”

      1. B.A.D. – I learn something every time you post…

        You’re welcome.

        The story of Tycho’s golden(?) nose often shows up in historical accounts of early astronomy. He was renowned for being the best naked-eye astronomer in Europe at the time, with perhaps his best-known discovery being the supernova in the constellation Cassiopeia.

        Johannes Kepler was his assistant for a while and, according to one account I heard, the two of them apparently didn’t like each other.

        AOC says the Danes have a $22/hour minimum wage.

        So that’s what Marcellus meant when he says “Something is rotten in the state of Denmark.” (Hamlet, Act I, Scene IV)

      2. Sorry, PH, from the story MacDonalds pays its employees $22 an hour, plus a lot of vacation time. One of the commenters on the story noted that Denmark doesn’t have a minimum wage (which I had thought made the story hilariously funny), but a quick search proved that to be false. The minimum wage in Denmark is about $18/hr.

        1. C_Miner – I make no claims of the veracity of AOC’s claims. However, I stand corrected re McDonald’s vs minimum wage. Thank you.

          B.A.D. – Kepler may not have liked Brahe but he didn’t let that stop him from using “Tycho’s astronomical data to develop his three laws of planetary motion”. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tycho_Brahe

  9. I predict we will see this product pitched on Shark Tank … and Marc Cuban will invest $1M for a 3% share of the company.

  10. I don’t get the point here. This has zero moral value in terms of mask wearing and no practical benefit. It’s even more useless than a face diaper.

  11. For the Germophobe with everything.
    A pocket flamethrower.
    Cause nothing kills germs like a blast of incinerating heat..
    The guaranteed cure for your Covid 19 fears,the heavy duty plastic bag(mask) complete with duct tape to ensure it seals properly around the neck.

  12. This nose filter wouldn’t do me any good. I’m a mouth breathing low IQ conservative. At least that’s what my betters say.

  13. I actually saw a couple wearing something similar in a Walmart at Moose Jaw, Sk. last week. They had a face shield surrounding the nose and mouth piece.

    I wear an industrial N-95 mask. Much easier, and it picks up everything, including pixie dust.
