Corey Taylor Thinks You Should “Stop Whining and Put Your God Damn Mask On”
The world is full of deeply, deeply stupid people. A lot of these numbskulls refuse to wear a mask when they go out because they think it impinges their freedom, or they can’t stand the minor discomfort/inconvenience caused by masks, or that the coronavirus is all hoax, or that the masks are equipped with a device that lets George Soros and the Illuminati track you, or whatever whatever whatever. Maybe you’ve seen some of these people out in the world. Maybe you know some of these people. Heck, maybe you are some of these people.
And while these people won’t listen to me… or health experts… or politicians with an IQ that’s larger than their shoe size… they might listen to Corey Taylor, The Greatest Man the World Has Ever Known™.
The Slipknot/Stone Sour vocalist on Triple M Rock Interviews (bottom of this post), where he implored fans to shape the fuck up:
“Stop whining and put your god damn mask on. This isn’t an isolated incident. My country’s loaded with these dumbasses that think it is some sort of political standpoint or some sort of partisan garbage. And I’m just like, ‘Are you serious?’ Just because you haven’t had anyone in your life affected by it doesn’t mean that it’s not a real thing.
“I once had to wear a full head mask for eight hours while doing Slipknot press. Eight hours straight – didn’t take it off, but these people are going to bitch and moan about wearing it for ten minutes at the market? Get over yourselves.”
Corey’s right, of course, as he always is. If you love Slipknot, you should listen to him because you admire his work, and if you hate Slipknot, you should listen to him because he just called you a wimp. Either way, just put the fucking mask on already. Sheesh.
Slipknot, BTW, sell face masks, if you want the whole world to know you’re doing your part to help curb the spread of the virus and you’re a Maggot. Buy ’em here.
