Straight Line of the Day: Springtime Ends Mandates in Germany! Need lyrics for “MaskEra – The Musical!”

Masks Forever: Germany Plotting to Mandate Masks Annually From ‘October to Easter’
Breitbart | 06/18/2022 | Kurt Zindulka

Lawmakers in Germany are reportedly considering instituting mask mandates every year during the winter months, likening the move to requirements for winter tyres on automobiles.

A report from the German newspaper Welt am Sonntag has claimed that the Social Democrat-led ‘traffic light’ coalition [?] government is making preparations to pass legislation requiring German citizens to wear masks in public from October to Easter annually to supposedly stem the spread of respiratory diseases such as the Chinese coronavirus.

OK, I’ll get the bawl rolling:

I was born in dear old Scranton
That is why it’s “Let’s Go Brandon.”

No good, huh?

Well, how about:

Don’t be stupid; don’t be sulkin’:

All your pistols are ReVolken.

And, by the way . . .

What is this German obsession with disease and government equalling tires and traffic lights?

I guess they’re German, so it makes sense.

“There is now an AutoBan.”

Heh.

♩♪

When I was just a little girl
I asked my mother —
What will I be?
Will I be pretty?
Will I ever smile?
She put a mask on me . . .

♩♪
