Let me paint a picture here:Haha well we already were forced to pay for it, might as well use it :/
but yeah I like having my book collection!
I want a specific book...
“I know let me patronize my public library!”
So I drive one of my 14 MPG 4wd SUVs down to a stale old government building before I “waste” $10.
“Sir you need to wear a mask”
Under my breath: “I hate you.” I put it on. I notice a picture of Joe Biden on the wall behind her.
“Oh crap, you don’t have it... Oh You’ll have it next week? Great!”
I come back next week.
“Sir, you need to wear a mask.”
I act like I didn’t hear the Bolshevik.
“SIR!!!! You NEED to WEAR a MASK!”
I guess I need to either act deaf or apologize now. Next time I’ll wear my AirPods.
Back to the truck to get my face diaper.
Back inside!
“Oh a fellow patron didn’t return it on time.”
Son of a bitch.
I come back the following week.
Defeated, I put my mask on with my nose out in silent defiance.
“Sir, you need to pull your mask over your nose.”
I look around for an easy way to kill myself. Nothing. Oh well. “Sure let me pull that right up for you.”
“Do you have this book?”
“What? I can’t hear you.”
“Yeah that’s because you insist on standing behind 3 layers of plexiglass and I’m wearing a face diaper.”
“What?”
I raise my voice... “DO YOU HAVE THIS (F*cking implied) BOOK?”
“Yes, right here!”
“Hooray you finally have it? Wait... What is this nasty slime on the cover? Let me go wash my hands and why don’t you wipe this thing down while I do that?”
Finally, I get it for free, I’m walking out... And I realize... It is a 600 page book and I have a week to read it or it isn’t free.
The next day I develop a severe illness, presumably the slime was the culprit. Is this covid? No! It’s meningitis. I am dead in 24 hours.
In her mourning, my wife goes to bring the book back several weeks later...
“Ma’am, you need to wear a mask”
“You’re very late on this return, that will be $11.”
F*ck. I look down from above wishing I could kill myself even though I’m already dead.
The alternative to dying inside and then literally dying:
