I posted this on "that other place" and some over there doubted this actually occurred.
Those of you that know me, you really think I would do this?
If you don't think I wouldn't you don't know me then...
Really, I made her cry.
It had been a morning at work, inventory, fighting a new to me machine I was not familiar with, 87 different things going on etc. Come lunch time I needed to get out of the office for a while and decompress so I cruised down to a nearby BBQ joint for some brisket sammich sanity.
Now I wasn't in a shitty mood, just need a break from BS and I wasn't particularly warm and fuzzy.
The place is pretty busy with a line to the cashier about 6 folks deep.
I am carrying my G20 in a Bianchi OWB with a long shirt, covers it well. While I am standing in line I am checking e mails and I fumbled my phone.
I bent over to pick up my phone and obviously part of the 20 is exposed, I straighten back up, flip my shirt back down to cover and I am waiting there to order.
I hear a voice behind me and turn to look, it is a 40ish, red and purple haired lady about 5'5" and probably about 175#. Horned rimmed glasses, looked about like Evie Hudak from the Colorado recalls and she is giving me the stink eye.
Her: "Are you a police officer?"
Me: "Why, did you do something wrong?"
Her: "No, but I noticed you were carrying a gun." Now usually I just blow something like that off and I am tolerant of most ignorant people but the way she sneered at me looking over her goggles when she asked it struck a nerve.
I replied: "Well, you have a vagina, does that make you a prostitute?"
She turns beet red and she is pissed!
Me: "See, blind assumptions are foolish."
Her: "Well I think only police and the Army need guns."
Me: "I don't recall asking you what you thought about the subject and I saw that movie where only the police and military had guns too. It was called Schindlers List. It didn't work out too well for the people that didn't have guns."
Her: "Well I should call the police."
Me: "And tell them what? Here, would you like to use my phone, I will even dial the number for you in case you can't remember it."
And then it happened.
The crocodile tears started to flow and she just stood there.
I placed my order, got my sammich and sat down and ate my lunch.
Just before I left the guy who had been in front of me in line and had overheard the exchange came up to me and said: "Classic man, just classic."
Like I said, normally I would not reply in such a way but man, she really annoyed me.
Happy Friday all
