over a Nirvana UMD disc for the Sony PSP I bought for my son. It was the last one, it was on an endcap, I grabbed it and some lady says to me "You know, I was going to BUY THAT!" with a nasty tone and scowl!!




So, I of course responded with "Well, it looks like I grabbed the last one" with a smug face. I mean, she's the one that started with the nastiness, so of course she's gonna get it in return. I then said Merry Christmas and she HIT my cart with HERS!!



People are fucking whacked, I tell you.

U shouldve smacked her with the disc and walked away

i would have told her if "wishes" and "buts" were clusters of nuts, she should go to the cereal aisle and go have herself a damn bowl of granola.

then i would have wished her a merry christmas.

Let's! I know how to make a dollar holler!

next time call Carrie. she'll get it at an employee discounted price.

something like that happened to me over a Zelda game. but this other guy got the last one. and i was like "oh man" and he said "ha... last one,,,too slow....whoops" and i was like whatever... and he saw the box was a biT crushed on one Conner. and he got mad. i said "well it was the last one"

so as i am leaving i see like 3 empty display boxes for it (the had the green "Coming soon" stickers... well i pick up 2 and call to him "hey they have more over here" and the dummy puts down the real one and runs over to me... i then go get the one he put down and i litterly am checking out by the time he realizes it was an empty box! so i said "who's SLOW now? whoops!"

People are whacked. Think road rage. I tend to avoid confrontations with strangers as you don't know what drugs they may have on board. We have shootings every day here and dead bodies that turn up in the desert with evidence of torture. Crack and meth are a big problem and people just go nuts on that stuff.

There are some crazy shopping psychos out there

This is exactly why I'm not leaving my house today or tomorrow. The kids had some Christmas gift money to spend and wanted to go to the mall today. I told my husband to have fun taking them!

I was at the grocery store last night to pick up a few things, and when I walked out to my car, some jerk parked totally crooked, nearly blocking my car in. I had to really maneuver my car to get it out. Well, of course I couldn't see and when I was backing out, some stuck up looking couple had to wait for me. I said sorry to them, and they actually gave me a dirty look and the woman rolled her eyes at me! WTF??? It's not like I came close to hitting them or anything. They just had to be put out for like 5 seconds while I backed up.

jerseykrs said:

That's not bad.

I would have done something like pretend I was going to let her have it and then pull it away the last second before her fat sweaty hand reached it. Now That's Smug.

When I'm out engaging in a culturally-mandated materialistic binge and people are becoming Icky Christmas Slime Monsters before my very eyes, I always like to stop and ask myself, what would Jesus do?

Xmas is a fucking joke. Used to be people would be nice to each other this time of year. Not anymore. I cannot wait for this shit to be over.

jerseykrs said:

Damn! All that over a Nirvana UMD disc for the Sony PSP? That woman needs to get a grip.

Stymie said:

it's wild out there today. stores, roads, people are in a frenzy.

i am SO glad i mailed all of my gifts off two weeks ago.

i was just saying! people are truly crazy out there

Should have stabbed her with your car keys. and screamed "NINJA!"

there was a guy behind me in line at Petsmart, and he looked like he was ready to kill somebody. (probably me, because i had a month's worth of dog stuff in my cart ) all he had was his dog grooming bill, so i let him go ahead of me. who knows, one case of road rage may have been avoided.

IrresistibleB1tch said:

let's hope so.

i totally had a snappy reply to this, but then i thought better of posting it because i have enough problems without getting a jihad all up on my ass. better to let LordEvil field this one while i apply my best Lee Press-On smile and quote the blessed Sarah Silverman: JESUS IS MAGIC!!!

i think the problem is that more and more people are starting to see what christmas has become... and we hate that. so we go through the motions and take it out on others.
