Don’t get caught with your pants down – unless, of course, you need a face mask in no time.
A woman in South Africa avoided being expelled from a Pick n Pay supermarket by wearing her panties as a mask.
Images from the smartphone camera obtained by Newsflash captured the bizarre interaction in which the store guard asked the woman without a mask, who was waiting with her grocery cart in the checkout line, to put on a face mask or leave the store.
With no mask at hand, the ingenious renegade opposes himself before taking a break, probably at the moment when a light bulb went on in his head.
In the next moment, the cheeky client can be seen extending her hand under the paisley printed skirt, pulling her black thong down her legs and up to her face, where she placed it to cover her nose and mouth.
“Happy?” she asks sarcastically. A surprised viewer can also be heard saying “good God” behind the camera.
Meanwhile, another buyer on the line directly behind the woman, now without pants, encouraged the feat.
“Well, personally, I think it’s acceptable: it’s a mask,” she says. “And frankly, I think the bacteria on your panties is less than on the mask.”
“Well done to you,” she adds with a congratulatory applause. “Brillant.”
However, Internet critics were not so impressed. “Come, grow up. What should your family think? ”Asked a Facebook user, according to Newsflash.
He added another: “It makes me sick. She is aware of the law worldwide. We have a serious virus and (she thinks) a floss will save her. “
