Have You Ever Been Told to Watch your back in them streets
Today at whole foods was shopping for a corporate luncheon. My colleague, Liza and I were waiting in line in an overcrowded unusually disorganized store. Some douche in a tuxedo in front said fuck that I'm going to Vons. He placed his groceries in our cart and 😉.
A very attractive blonde ringing up our aisle announced, we apologize for the delay, half our staff is out due to covid. That is when very loudly a tall, fairly attractive black woman with big hoop earrings said, We don't need to know that" The cashier didn't respond. She continued,"The shit makes not wanna shop in this store" also on her cell phone, "look imma call u back and tell Tyrone he betta have my money when I see him". I chuckled and nervously held it. She noticed an intense stare from a middle aged fella behind her and asked,"what is you looking at". I'm going to fast forward this story because there's a lot ranging from contempt to humor from other shoppers in the store.
At some point Liza asked the woman, "Can you please calm down with your theatrics, I have a migraine." That is when the woman went off, "you dumb white bitch stay in your lane. This store is crowded and ghetto" she added. People were appalled. I chimed in that she needed to relax and move back. She cursed us out the entire time the worker was bagging our groceries. When we were exiting the parking lot we encountered her at an intersection, driving a BMW I might add. "She rolled down her window and screamed, "And you betta watch yo back in them streets". Liza and I looked at each other. Liza asked me, "Do you think shes Trans." We both laughed as I I sped off.

I can't state my opinion until I know how attractive every character in your story is.

R9, the impatient tuxedo man was fairly good looking. Likely mid to late 30s. He just looked very tired. I suspect he was coked up. Gave me strong Charlie Sheen vibes.
Liza, well she's Liza. Very cute when she was younger. Lets just say she has heart of gold now. And of course I'm a ten.
And no your sarcasm wasn't lost on me.

I don't know what's more disturbing that a woman would curse us over a prime roast and long lines or the fact that DL of all places does not believe me.
I will pray for humanity.

Too many people are suffering from long covid brain fog these days, and that makes their writing atrocious. Every news article now is full of syntax errors and weird sentence structures. The humanity is doomed.

R24 I agree and I do apologize. I think I do have covid fain brog. It would also explain the behavior of the patrons at Whole Foods today.

Also to add, the remarks from the ghetto BMW driver are her literal words. Her ebonics coupled with a few typos, misplaced commas might be off putting to some.

Was Liza on a scooter or were you wheeling her around in a shopping cart?

So the groceries that were placed in your cart by the tuxedoed gentleman, did you actually purchase them? Were they the hit of the corporate luncheon? Did his taste in food match his taste in attire?

R30 Of course we did not purchase them. His tuxedo was wrinkled. And I did not need 2 bottles of champagne, bacon, mozzarella sticks, frozen salmon, kiwi and strawberries. But more importantly I would never trust anyone walking around in wrinkled formal attire.

This morning Lizza called. Apparently she was drinking over an Ex, and her session with her woke therapist got testy. She's now deluded herself into thinking she was a microaggressor. She wants to track down BMW lady to apologize. I was too tired still to entertain the thought.

R34 This Whole Foods isn't ghetto; just a chaotic mess due to staff shortage. Everyone seemed to be on edge and BMW lady was on 10.

R37 Why do you believe this is an EST. Does it offend your sensibilities. Does it affect your ability to be right.
I have never lied on DL. Never have, never will.

R39 I'm a writer and editor, and I can spot inconsistencies a mile away.
You can save whatever bullshit you want to say to defend this for someone who gives a fuck. This is utter horseshit.

R40, what inconsistencies. I left a whole chunk of the story out, and the how argument between Liza and BMW lady truly escalated. My post would be a 2 page essay had I done so.

Op is a ten and the story features Liza, a "sassy black woman" and a tuxedo in a grocery store?

So apparently Liza and I were trolled. First of all Liza did not tell me the whole story. She and the black lady had an encountere earlier in the store over the last prime rib. Liza went and grabbed it and the BMW lady said her eyeballs were already on it. "Why would you touch my prime rib with your dusty hands" They had a brief confrontation and Liza walked away after offering the lady 50 bucks. How offensive?
Anyways this was all a farce. BMW lady and tuexo man are hidden camera characters who play pranks on people in public. We've been contacted by the entertainment company and the store. We declined their permission to use our video and likeness.
My my what a crazy, entertaining world we live in today.
