I went there for months rehabbing my leg (fuck off..) and got a little unnerved with the amount of 'friendly' strangers walking up to me at night and saying - Hey man, nice night isn't it?
I told my friends of the time and they said it was my imagination. I take the same group of friends in my car to watch a lunar eclipse one night and out of the blue, a complete stranger walks up to my car, knocks on the window and then says in a totally creepy voice - Hey guys, nice night isn't it?
I'm ecstatic screaming - See! I told ya! Every fucking night I'm here it happens!!
sweet vindication

I was sitting on a park bench late one night with both crutches beside me. I could barely walk because the muscles in my leg had atrophied so much.
I hear a bunch of heavy breathing beside me and look up to see a big guy...probably 6 and half feet tall, standing there in a jogging suit.
He says - You here alone tonight? Are you doing alright? Do you need a hand with anything?....
Alarm bells are going off in my head big time and all I could think was - How can I use these crutches to hit this guy hard enough to get away? I'm no stranger to fights, but I was literally hopping on one leg at that time. Without crutches I couldn't walk.
He eventually left...but I'm sure it was going to be an assault or a gay thing (or both) if I didn't show disinterest.
Changing the subject a little...
I went to Superstore last night and bought six different types of frozen pizzas as an experiment...
The cashier was this young brown guy who kept making comments on people's purchases. The guy in front of me had a really lame bouquet of flowers (like four flowers in a bunch) and he grabbed a little chocolate bar while in the line up.
Cashier made some smartass remark about not getting into trouble on Valentine's Day and the guy laid into him..with some serious anger
He started with saying - You are obviously not married...and ended with - I don't need to hear some shitty comment about what I buy.
I kinda had to stand back and cover my mouth..
EXACTLY what I thought The cashier though was one step away from crossing the line with a couple of people...
I get up there, plunk down my frozen pizzas (on sale for 2.87 each, which is a good deal up here) and he says - Some guys give flowers, others give pizzas!
I smiled and was tempted to say - My girlfriend died in a horrible accident...but I didn't want to steal the guy's thunder
Probably not the best form of customer service to insult the customers though
I have a dude at Costco that I try and hit his line.. He always oohs and Ahhs over the stuff in my cart.. " Steaks, crab, beer" Mmmm man that looks so good... How are you gonna cook those" ?
In general, shopping at Superstore is a shitty experience so I try to find/make some humor when I go as well.
I was in a huge line up, struck up a convo with an older lady and she couldn't get over a deal on light bulbs. She says - They're in aisle 6 right now, if you want to get some.
I respond - Sure, you're just being nice so you get my spot in line!
She's horrified, other people are laughing, there's much rejoicing throughout the land
