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 *** 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.
