Smile...

Have you ever had a perfect stranger come up to you in the store and tell you to smile?   Do you not want to pop them one and see if they want to continue to smile.    I'll smile when I have something to smile about, not on command.   GEEEZ...   What is there about them that makes them so special? hmmmmm.... 

I think the next time I'll unload on them and then ask them what I have to smile about.  Just like I did a few  years ago.   I had popped into my local grocery store for some item or another, and some ASSHAT came up to me and told me to smile, that things couldn't be all that bad.   I just looked at him and said, "gee, I just buried a family member, I lost my job, I need to move out of my house because I can't afford it, and now my car won't start half the time.   What do I have to smile about?"   He just smirked and walked off.   I did restrain myself and didn't lob the can of soup I had in my hand at him, but I was sure tempted. 

Texting idiots

So I'm leaving the grocery store, backing out very slowly so as to miss the idiot who is standing in the middle of the lane, texting.   Grrrrrr   The lady he was with was talking away on her phone and was at least standing next to her vehicle. 
Tell me something, do people who are texting think they're invincible and do they think they have a force field surrounding them so they can't get hit?
