MAGA genius at doctor's office this morning.

[tavernier]

I fell recently and went in for X-ray. In the waiting room sat four people, quiet, masked, waiting appt. The fifth was a loud mouth guy, mask under chin, talking angrily on phone. He’d been to several docs that day and “the help” were really pissing him off. “Incompetent, can’t barely answer a telephone, surprised they knew how to take a temperature.” Just as I was wondering about his politics he took off on mail in ballots and people no longer true Americans and if he had to explain to one more phoney American he would just as soon crack them in the face.

I’m glad my mask didn’t give my face away because I had the biggest grin ever... that jerk’s rant made my day!!

1. Had a similar experience in late November 2008

Was in line to return a cable box. Guy in line starts grousing about how this is going to be what it’s like during Obama, long lines.

There were multiple black customers in line who he was clearly making uncomfortable. I let him go for a few minutes before saying.

“Why don’t you shut your mouth you old bastard before I shut it for you.”

He turned around, looked at me, and shut his pie hole.

3. Normally I would oppose sinking to their level

But sometimes it's the only way to reach them. Or if you don't really reach them they at least know that not everyone agrees with their spew.

7. I probably wouldn't have done it now

Mostly because I’m a little older and also because my state has passed conceal and open carry laws since then so now I assume everyone I encounter in public is armed.

6. I'd have said, "Oh, you mean like it is NOW under Bush?"

10. Thank you! I have had enough of these cross toed cretins to last me a life time.

2. What I don't understand is why the staff there

didn't tell him to wear his mask properly or leave.

4. The patients at my clinic wear their masks properly, or they are shown the door.

As much as I would like to fix their health complaint, I don't want them making anyone else sick in the process.

8. L shaped waiting room.

I don’t think they saw him because they were busy at the desk, and the other patients didn’t want to get involved with him, surprise surprise.

[tavernier]

5. It's a long L shaped waiting room

and I don’t think the girls at the busy desk could see him.
Everyone else was just pretending he wasn’t there. The chairs were set up 6’ apart though.

9. He should have been forced to put his mask on properly or thrown out

It's one thing to have to suffer these fools when there isn't a pandemic, but this is a matter of life and death.
