let's talk about...
On Thursday, before I went to Jack and Lizz's, I needed to go get gas. At Safeway, they sometimes close off one side of the island ( for a reason completely unbeknownst to me) which forced a long lineup of cars waiting on the other end. Now, the side that I was on had one free pump in the middle, but the guy in front of me ( now known as college kid) was pulled up too far for anyone to parallel in. Another car, however, (now known as old bmw) was ambitious enough to try and squeeze in - unsuccessfully. So now, we have college kid unable to leave the pump because stupid old bmw has completely blocked him in. You would think that the solution was obvious but old bmw _refused_ to move because college kid was the "asshole" that pulled up too far and screwed everyone over - "You pulled up too far, you figure it out". Well, college kid's friend and wife of old bmw got out of their respective cars and started arguing about this in the middle of the gas station while the rest of us were sitting in our cars, completely annoyed and a little bewildered. Finally, I got fed up and asked everyone behind me to back up so we could let college kid leave. College kid leaves, and wife of old bmw is absolutely livid that I interfered in _her_ argument and that I was out of line. I told her that I saw a conflict, and I resolved it. What were we supposed to do? Just sit in our cars and listen to it rust while they argue? AND THEN she SPAT on my CAR. I mean, these people are the same age as my parents. I didn't even have time to be appalled because I was in absolute disbelief at what she did. I made a big show of copying down her license plate number and said - that was completely unnecessary, "well, you interfering was completely unnecessary". I recognise that we can't talk about this maturely so I leave to pay for my gas. As I was going into the door, her husband elbows me out of the way, stands in front of the line and turns to me, smirking - "You got something to say to me?" I sighed, looked at him, shook my head and said - no, I'm just really happy that you two found each other.

OK, these ppl have the maturity of 10 year olds in the playground. Or maybe Draco Malfoy... But seriously, these ppl need some help. I can't believe people their age could act so attrociously and for something so petty.
Geez, you sure these people weren't American? They sound American. If not, well, wow, that's pretty fucked up right there. I'd tell you not to dwell on it, but it sounds like one of those situations that just begs to be dwelled upon. They probably resented your youth, angry at the fact that they spent their best years jacking off in some factory or some such bullshit.
Goddamn college kids.
oh wai
Wow. Sometimes I don't even believe that people that dumb exist.
Apparently they do.
