We need a things we did say today. I've done this a couple of times recently because I find it annoying that cashiers and sales people aren't polite enough for my taste. The lady at Bed Bath and Beyond hands me my receipt before and says nothing so I thanked her and said, "oh wait, that's what you're supposed to say to me" right in her sour puss of scowling face. I don't think anyone's done that to her before because the look on her mug was fucking priceless.

Putting Swiss cheese on my hot pastrami sandwich like you recommended yesterday was an excellent idea. I'd like that today as well please.

Two of my personal favorites is from a looooooong while back. Sitting in my car outside my buddy's dorm, waiting for him to come out. Haven't put any coinage in the meter since I'm in it. I see the meter-maid coming up to my car, so I hop out and put a quarter in. The guy says, "If you're going to sit in it you have to feed it." Me: "Why? (long pause) Is it hungry?" Since the meter-maids are played by the role of rent-a-cops who are paid as campus security, I swiftly walked into my buddy's dorm before he responded, but he looked pissed off. And I'm glad I pissed him off. __________________________ My girl and I are exiting a mall with some food, but I forgot to get napkins. Next to the exit is a TCBY, with a convenient napkin holder right near the entrance, so I grab some napkins. Bitchy, fat worker-bee behind the counter: Where are you going with those? Me (looking her dead in the eye, still pulling out napkins): Why? Are you writing a book? This is one where you had to be there. Reading it doesn't do it justice, but seeing her jaw (and all five of her chins) drop was fun. I held her gaze for about 3-5 seconds and took some more napkins, all while she struggled to say something. Then I left. _________________________ I don't think they translate very well to print. But I hate meter-maids and mall workers who don't like it when you take their napkins. Those are two groups of people who are drunk with the "power" they have, and being a smart-ass to them gave me a warm and fuzzy glow. Maybe no one who reads this will understand, but I won't soon forget either of those incidents.
