Acts of controlled rage

Dean820 · 04-12-2010 06:12AM #1

Was in the shop during my break yesterday and was walking up to the counter when this very rough looking girl in an addidas tracksuit and hoopy earrings asked me to get her a spoon. Now, I just should have said no, flat out but I was taken aback. So I went and picked up the spoon, the spoon was the other side of the shop by the deli. It was out of my way. I'm not the type of person to make a smart comment...I just hate making a scene...but this was kinda eating me up that I just had to do something to get back at her in my own way. I was so annoyed so much she asked me in the first place and I actually did like a tool.

...so I licked her spoon and rubbed it with my unwashed fingers as I was walking back to her. I handed it to her with a smile.

So...stupid story I guess...but have you ever done something similar where you controlled your rage and got back at someone in your own way?

You should have itched your crack with it, then handed it to her.

Saila · 04-12-2010 06:17AM

am I the only one not understanding where the rage is coming from here

was it that a knacker was in your shop and you had to serve her?

It was her manner of speaking to him (mr shop attendant i presume??

). So for her attitude problems she recieved a freshly licked and rubbed with dirty fingers spoon.

The question is: Was the spoon being used for coffee, or is someone insane enough to be eating ice cream in this weather?

I was walking to the counter with my lunch and she approached me. I do not work at this shop. I had to walk from the counter and all the way over the other side of the shop for a spoon. Whats not to be enraged by that? :mad:

I was just taken aback. I didn't expect it. I regretted and was annoyed with myself as soon as I started walking.

I would have but I'm not Brian Dowling.

Why'd you get her the spoon when you don't even work there??
"Sorry i don't work here" would've done her!

I just don't understand. You got her the spoon. I just don't understand. I've read it twice. I've not gotten to Why yet in my thought process, I'm stuck at What.

I had a bag on my back, I was obviously a college student. Unless she was on something....she couldn't of thought I worked there.

Acts of controlled rage sounds cooler. :cool:

Because he was scared of her, and he was so ashamed of being scared of her, he licked her spoon, so he wouldn't feel like such a pussy, instead of just telling her he didn't work there.

spoonface · 04-12-2010 10:25AM

I don't know how many times I've been in a shop and someone asks me for something thinking I work there. I usually play along...

Randomer: Do you have any aubergines?

Me: No, there'll all gone but we should be getting more in later this afternoon

or the same for wrong numbers...

Randomer: Is Paddy there?

Me: No, he'll be back later on.

etc.

Consider it your good deed for the day. Cost you nothing, nobody got hurt.
She probably had cutlerydislexia - the poor strumpet.

Well, I suppose it's a good thing that no-one here knows what the spoon was actually for - assuming it was a metal spoon, and not plastic. Hint: it's not something you eat or drink, there's another thread on the current "drought", and the licking would make no difference whatsoever. A member of staff would probably know this - so she wouldn't ask a member of staff. :rolleyes:

04-12-2010 11:11AM

OP,

First, you submitted to get a spoon for a perfect stranger- Bit of backbone would have had you saying "Sorry love, I don't work here." or even better saying, with a confused face "Why?".

Second, you "got back" at said person by licking the spoon. What if she ended up putting the spoon back, or washing it before use?

OP, you fail at backbone. And you crazy in the mix. I'm worried for the eventual mate you need to shack up with.

No 'fence hun.......

04-12-2010 11:12AM

You should have spooned her.

See how she would have liked that.

Son Of A Vidic · 04-12-2010 11:30AM

OP - well at least you did something, but the fact that you got her the spoon in the first place is worrying. Just say you're in a supermarket and someone shouts at you "Gimme your car keys and wallet now!"..would you hand them over without thinking and then try to react later? Just a thought.

MagicSean · 04-12-2010 11:34AM

I want to know why you don't wash your hands.

Stranger: I need your clothes, boots and your motorcycle.

Me: Eh, ok...
