I was grocery shopping today, and this this woman was blocking the isle standing next to her trolley. I waited for a moment, then asked if I could get by. She looked at my and said "Why?". The sad part though, was that from the look on her face, she genuinely didn't seem to understand why I might want to get past and continue shopping.
Ugh, people.

My mom told me about her trip shopping today in Australia. She needed some food, and while trying to decide what she wanted, some came up to her and rudely asked her to get the out of his way.

every time I leave the house.
more specifically, last Tuesday night there were 3 German girls staying with me who were couchsurfing their way through California. I took them out to eat and to a bar afterward where we met up with a few of my friends. almost immediately some middle-aged creeper began chatting them up while the rest of us conversed in the back, no big deal. we finished our drinks and the German girls, feeling a bit uncomfortable around this guy, asked if we could find another place to drink. dude follows us to the second bar and for the next hour proceeds to throw everything he's got at them, introducing them to other dudes who looked just as old and alone as he did and trying to pry his way into our table in the corner.
finally as we were leaving they said a brief good-bye to him, truly a favor considering most girls in this area wouldn't even acknowledge somebody like that, and the dude responds by frustratedly shouting "bye German bitches!" as though he couldn't wrap his mind around the fact that these foreign chicks wouldn't go home with him. my friend responds in kind by marching up to him at the bar and shouting " you" in his face, and then we continue on our merry way home. as we're laughing and walking up the street we realize he has been following us for some time listening to us talking about him. I guess he must've grown tired of hearing us laugh about the very idea of his existence because the next time we turned around he was gone. |

On my friend's 18th birthday I tried to get a hobo lady to sleep with him.
She wanted a burger from burger king or the equivalent in cash. |

| On the topic of grocery shopping; Don't take your entire cart full of to the self-checkout. You it up. Trust me the cashier that does that 8 hours a day can do it faster than you. I'm standing there with a frozen pizza and you're fumbling through the produce numbers and weighing like some kind of palsy. Go wait in the other line. The are you thinking. |

This. Often as well you get some woman doing it with her kids who then proceed to make a game out of scanning the items. Only issues are that they don't bag them quick enough to please the computer scales so then it repeatedly calls for the attendant to override the system each time.
Also, and this is relevant to the others, I try to go early. Like it's 7am on a saturday and the stores open at 8. I'll be there shortly thereafter and then over to the market for most of my produce that I eat. It's so much nicer to go early & avoid the inevitable up that is mankind.
Finally, ugh goes to salespeople who are even more desperate than ever to follow us around and shove their 'deals' down our sphincters, along with those campaigning with the "have you had an accident recently that wasn't your fault" ambulance chasers. Generally they're gotten rid of with 'Yes, but I had some spare boxers with me so it wasn't that bad' or the energy scumbags who pounce on you and you just tell them that you rely solely on wind power, which is why you've just bought 3 bags of lentils, some split peas and a dozen eggs. |
