Singapore — After needing to wear masks over our noses and mouths for over a year and a half, some people still don’t seem to get it.
Either that, or they’re sick of masking.
One man in a supermarket, when asked by others to place his mask over his nose as it was only covering his mouth, got angry when he was confronted.
And like others who have used strange excuses when asked to mask in public (sovereign citizens and badge ladies), all sorts of interesting things came out of his mouth.
In a video posted on the sg.incidents Instagram page on Sept 26, a man in a grey shirt and cap and khaki shorts is seen walking aggressively up to a woman in a black dress, coming much closer than the prescribed safe distance of 1.5 meters between people.
Apparently, she had just “politely asked him to put on his mask,” according to the caption on the sg.incidents video.
The caption also said that the man “yelled at her claiming he’s very rich” and “he also used “harsh words, tried to threaten the lady to punch her, he even asked the lady if she’s an officer to do it , and asked where’s her badge?”
The woman seems unfazed by the man’s manner and tells him that he’s on camera.
He answers, “I don’t care, dude. I got my mask up. What’s your problem?”
The man then marches up to the person taking the video and says, “Hello. How are you? What are you going to do with it?”
“I’ve got my mask on,” he repeats several times, pointing to his face.
His nose, however, is still exposed the whole time.
“That’s your hobby, isn’t it?” he tells the person taking the video.
He then returns to the woman in black and points off camera. “Healthy eggs,” he said, as if the situation could not get more bizarre. “Healthy eggs.”
The sg.incidents post, which has been widely viewed, went on to say that while a police report had been filed, “but the guy had left before the police came, and they already can’t find him I mean during this pandemic try to care about other people, you may not have any symptoms of Covid but who knows you’re already spreading it.”
“Please help to spread the video to catch him,” the poster added. /TISG
