A few interesting things I witnessed while shopping yesterday.

Incident 1

A stereotypical little old lady (you know the one: a tousled bit of dandelion fluff on her head; sensible shoes; and a pocketbook - she doesn't call it a purse or a handbag, it's a pocketbook - about the same size and shape as a bowling ball bag.) held up a pair of very tiny red lace thongs to herself and smiled.

Incident 2

Two middle-aged matrons were standing by the lingerie racks.

Matron#1: "Do you think Chris will like this?" I couldn't see exactly what she held up but it was baby doll pink.

Matron#2: "No, Mother. It's too small for him".

They walked further down the rack.

Matron#1: "How about these? They look like they'd fit him." Once again, I couldn't see and again the item was pink.

Matron#2: "Those are perfect." And she put the item in her shopping cart.
 
Yes, the smile on that lady's face was just wonderful. I wanted to go up to her and tell her to go ahead and get them, but I was afraid she'd be too embarassed. I'm sure she thought she was unobserved.
 
does make you wonder what people are wearing underneath it all.....

viva le undies!
 
I love to get those little glimpses into someone else's life, even though many times I'm sure what I am thinking is inaccurate or inappropriate. Still fun, though.
 
I love the que in grocery stores. Checking out other people's carts is sort of a hobby. I saw an enormous fat lady with an entire shopping cart heaped with Soda Pop and Toilet Paper one day.

Makes ya think, yanno :eek:
 
If someone's got a mammoth bag of catfood, we usually end up talking about our cats.

If someone abandons their cart in the middle of the aisle, I will put small highly priced items in their cart. :)


I hope you don't mind if I steal your idea!
 
LOLOL

I enjoy watching people.
Peope are funny most of the time.

Several days before Christmas I wandered into Victorias Secret to get my wife a gift card. (I know better than to buy her clothes, her taste and mine just don't match. :rolleyes: )

While I was there I watched as a woman who had to be old enough to have bounced Moses on her knee verbally assaulted a young woman looking at thongs. (She claimed it was women like her that caused men to sin.) After she was done with this she turnd to a saleswoman and asked where the Peekabo Teddies were as she wanted to surprise her husband. I could only smile to myself.

Several months ago in a local laundomat a woman wearing a see through blouse told my wife to pull up her pants because her husband could see my wife was wearing a thong and this might make her husband look at her.

Oh yes, people are funny.

Please do!

May I also suggest hanging out and observing them when their items are rung up and they begin to freak?

Yeah, sometimes I enjoy being an asshole.......

What an excellent idea!

You're my kinda person, Misty.

I hate aisle hogs.

Especially when two of them are conversing.

I usually carry a handbasket.

It's easier to maneuver.

When I can stand to shop, that is.

I don't know about MOST of the time, but very frequently.
Except for those times when they're just too fucking weird. :confused:
Donald Trump's hair, for example...

Um, that's not hair.

It's the sensory organs of the alien parasite that's replaced his brain. ;)

I guess that means aliens own half of Noo Yawk.

Sure beats that messy invasion scenario.

Donald Trump starring in Anime Tentacle porn!

It makes perfect sense now.

Buying things is much more profitable, and almost as much fun, as blowing them up. :devil:

that all depends on how you blow them up. :devil:

Sounds like Halloween night in Detroit.

Plus neat fires.

Last month I had a shopping cart filled with a 50 lb. bag of dog chow, a 25 lb. bag of cat chow and a 50 lb. bag of bird seed. That's it. I could see the person next in line was looking at the items, as we all do, as I checked out. I smiled at her and said, "I couldn't find the 50 lb. bag of people chow."
 
I know you're both kidding around, but I write Celebrity Tentacle Porn. Now I have to find a way to include Donald, even if just as a secondary character off to the side...

OMG, dude, you're like just plain weird.

Paris Hilton...tentacles...yeah, I can see that.

But The Donald? Sheesh!

Ivana, definitely.

And his daughter's a babe.

Party on!
