Now, if some strange older lady made that remark to you while standing in a grocery line how would you react?
My Story…
I went to a store to buy 2 KETTLE Bell Sets. The set had 3 balls 5, 10, 15, pounds each.
As I stood in line this senior aged lady wanted fresh roses so the cashier had
to run into her stockroom to retrieve them.
I stood in line patiently waiting for this SENIRCITZEN to
receive her dam roses. This lady looked at me and asked… What was wrong with my
face? The way she said it was quiet
horrifying. She repeated herself two times.
I’m pretty sure my jaw dropped to the ground in horror. I
looked at her and said… ummm…nothing?
She then said well your face looks very painful…
Honest to God I wanted to look around for a TV crew.
I replied nope my face feel just fine.
She then said it looks really chapped.
I said… It’s probably
red from the wind outside but my face was not chapped.
Then she said oh well it looks painful..
STOP... It is fine…
I turned my back to
her trying to give her a hint to stop talking to me!
I’m wondering to myself...what is taking this cashier so frickin long…
This Senior citizen lady wanted to continue a conversation. I am
not RUDE so I politely responded with short clipped answers.
She said… Love your coat…
Seriously you say my face looks
ugly and painful and you want to complement me on my frickin jacket…Umm Thanks…
She then said looks warm…I reply Yep it is.
Gesh lady take a hint…. DON’T TALK TO ME WIERDO!
Honestly why do senior citizen feel they have the right to
just say whatever the fuck they want?
I use Mary Kay Face cream and other facial products. My face
is frickin FABULOUS… SHUT UP!
Thank you very much ...you weirdo!
So…Knowing all of this what would you have done?
This is one of those situations where you think of the perfect thing to say after the fact..."What's the matter lady? You don't know a youthful girlish glow when you see one?"
ReplyDeleteOr you could have asked if HER face hurt and when she said no respond with "Well it's killing me!" That is a standing joke around here.
LOl... I know right... If only I could think faster on my feet. but I was to busy picking my jaw off the ground to think of a snappy remark...But those would of been perfect ones to say...lol
