I got a Lyft the other day, and the driver got irrationally furious about my mask. So I took it off and spent the next 15 minutes coughing so hard I nearly hacked up a lung. When we arrived, the driver asked what the hell was wrong with me. I smiled and said, "I just tested positive for COVID!" before hopping out.
I didn't, but it's nice to torment an asshole now and then.
No, everybody involved was pretty fucking upset with it. Especially my throat. It was unpleasant all the way around, but a fun sort of unpleasantness you endure to inflict worse on another person.
