Default Had a blood-boiling experience at Best Buy this morning...

So I picked up a few CDs and the Godfather box set (score) and I entered the line to proceed to the checkout. Like most Best Buys, you enter into a queue (sp) and when a salesperson opens up you walk over to that checkout area. I was next in line and there were about 4-5 people behind me.

I hear someone say, "Shoooooot. [censored] this, mang." I turned around to see who it is that is totally disregarding the children/families in the vicinity. I turn just in time to see this guy look at the line in disgust, then unhook a divider rope and just walk up to one of the checkout lines. Excuse us for waiting in line, sir.

I make this scoffing sound and the next thing I know I can feel him burning a whole the side of my head with his eyes. So I decide to look over. We have a staring contest for a full 7 seconds. He is actually glaring at me so intensely as if I were the rudest person alive! It was a "what did you just say/you can't do [censored]" look that I got from him, so at this point I started steaming, but he's right, I can't do [censored] about it. I am about to graduate from law school and if anything were to happen whatsoever I could kiss that goodbye (had some PIs in undergrad, so it would be the kiss of death for me).

There is one thing that I would like to point out. I am a perceptive person (except when it comes to my girlfriend lolz). The fact that you put on a 5XL white tee when you woke up this morning does not make you any bigger. He thought he was pretty tough but I could see his arms and his frame and I would have put my money on Calysta Flockhart if they were to scrap. I wear an XL and fill it out and I would have handled the guy without dropping my newly found CDs and DVDs, but it's never worth it.

I guess we could make this a 'choose your own adventure thing' and see if anyone would have done things differently. I am guessing that there are a few who may have said something, but that most would just deal with it.
