    Lupo, take them back!

    Yesterday evening, on our way back from work, my wife and I stopped at a supermarket to buy some basics.

    I go to buy "my" choc-chip cookies. I know which ones I want, it should be a matter of a bunch of seconds. Now, a relatively elderly couple were deep in discussion just in front of where "my" cookies were. I had no intention to extend my arm between them, at crotch height. So I ask: "Sorry, could I please pick those up?", pointing at the cookies. The man stepped back apologising, very nice; the woman, though, started complaining that I was listening to their private affairs (that they were discussing in the middle of a supermarket), interrupting them and that "You kids have no respect". Now - I am 35, I haven't been called a "kid" for quite a while. But as I raised my head ready to say something snippy the man delivered the perfect line: "Look who's talking of respect, you paranoid woman".

    I stepped back avoiding to look at him (otherwise I know I'd have started laughing), and instead threw my "teacher stare" at her.

            If you are discussing something in public, it is no longer a private conversation. Some of us wouldn't hear what you said if you screamed in our ear, cause we don't CARE, but if somebody over hears somebody..guess who's fault it is? Just one guess

              That made me inhale more of the ice cream cone that I was eating than I cared for.

                "Yes, because I have nothing better to do than listen to others conversations while I'm shopping. Paranoid much?"
                Random conversation:
                Me: Okay..so I think I get why Zoro wears a bandana
                DDD: Cuz it's cool
                So, by using the Doctor's reasoning, bow ties, fezzes and bandanas are cool.
