Quote From: gwarrior6I went to Starbucks this morning, and there was a line, so I took my place behind this hippie-ish lady, dressed up. I didn't think it was necessary to dress up to go get breakfast, and she SNEERED at me! Plus she was RUDE to me at the cashiers desk. This infuriated me oourthn more than one level.
First of all, youre a neo-hippie, you believe in free-expression, don't judge a book by its cover, blah, blah, blah. Yet, here you are looking DOWN on ME, which basically makes you a hypocrite.
Second, I've got a massive dose of PMS, so i'm not taking crap off anyone!
Third, it's my day off, and I'll be darned if I'm judged by ANYONE! I'll do what I want, and if she sticks up her snooty nose, she can kiss my pasty butt, because I don't care!
Fourth, I'm tired, and hungry, and all i want is my friggin' coffee and muffin, and i don't want to interact when i'm just getting sustenance...so go back to your commune and leave me alone!
Perhaps since you were both looking each other over. You could have found 'something' about her you liked, and offered a compliment? It could have turned the moment around for you, and her as well, and made your day off a pleasant one to boot.
When I am out and about, and encounter someone like that, I don't assume anything. Most of the time I have thoughts of my own in other area's. But, if I suspect someone is truly sneering at me, I smile to see if it comes back. If it doesn't.. oh well.... I won't let someone take my joy.
