1. [+1,087, -16] This has to be a joke

2. [+696, -11] It looks funny even with a pretty woman wearing it..

3. [+244, -11] Just stuff cotton up your nose instead of this..

4. [+213, -3] Are people sane?

5. [+170, -22] The point of a face mask is that it covers both the nose and mouth since both are used in breathing and to block spit particles... this is a joke. I'm scared that I'll ever come across someone wearing this.

6. [+112, -5] Quite the selfish mask. The person wearing it has no problem spreading their germs everywhere but refuses to breathe in anyone else's.

7. [+63, -11] It kind of looks embarrassing... like you're wearing a pad on your nose...

8. [+53, -3] And what about your own saliva? ㅡㅡ;

9. [+43, -3] Let's get one thing straight: this mask was invented for people who eat inside of restaurants. The point of this mask is not to wear only this around outside.

10. [+27, -9] The point of this mask is to wear inside restaurants. In such an environment, it's easier for germs to be exchanged no matter how much distance is maintained between everyone. Instead of everyone taking their masks off, maybe it'd be safer to at least wear nose masks while everyone eats.

11. [+10, -2] This is foolish. The virus can still go in through your mouth.

12. [+4, -0] Just stay home instead of wearing this

Eye- don’t know what to say. Truly.
