I was standing in a very long line at the store, waiting to pay for my groceries.
There was a man behind me, talking on his phone. He ran into me with his cart and I turned and looked at him. He apologized. Two more times, he bumped me with his cart.
The final time, I turned and said to him, "Sir - my derriere is substantial enough that surely you should have no trouble seeing it." At the bashful look on the face, everyone in the checkout line began to laugh.
I suppose I should have been annoyed at the butt-bumping, but the hilarity of the entire situation had me laughing along with everyone else.
Lol Eve I would've cracked up too.
I suppose I might have said something like, "Sir, my ass would appreciate it if you would put down your phone and look where you're pushing your cart." He did seem very nice though. As I was putting my cart into the "cart corral" after unloading my groceries, he came up behind me with his own cart and said, "We meet again!" I had to laugh.
Apparently, whoever he was speaking with asked him who he was talking to because I heard him say, "The lady I kept bumping into in the store."
I suppose we can sometime find humor in things that might typically be annoying.
I'll take shared laughter over annoyance any day of the week.
