Rude People

Was at Carr Farm  earlier today on the Wirral browsing the cheese selections. Had a trolley with me as I was going to pick up some compost for the garden. Anyway some middle aged, middle class Karen wearing a mask in tow with her baldy husband approaches me and says, “Can I get past” no excuse me, no please just “can I get past” I says “sure” and as I’m about to move my trolley she immediately snaps, “ I said can I get past” . It’s a long time since I’ve felt rage like this I have to say. The utter contempt and impatience she spoke to me with had to be seen to be believed. I stared at the baldy husband who looked at me sheepishly and sort of shrugged. Luckily for Karen I’m a reasonable guy, I often wonder what would happen if these creatures spoke to the wrong person in this way. Don’t be rude to strangers, it could end up really ugly for you.

I usually handle cunts like that by shouting quite loud "SORRY, WAS I IN YOUR WAY". Usually shows them up to be the cunts they are.

Ha, I was wondering what to say but by the time I got my thoughts together the moment had passed. I was fuming though, she was unbelievably rude.

There's also been a dramatic decline in basic pavement etiquette. Maybe lockdown eroded the common sense. You get couples, or more, walking towards you and you can tell they're determined not to give you room to pass by. I was walking up a street one Saturday recently, and this middle-class family was walking towards me - real stereotypes, the bloke in raspberry-coloured cords, the wife in a green quilted gilet, two young girls dressed up like Alice in wonderland - and when they reached me, they just stopped and stared, as if waiting for me to either step out into oncoming traffic or levitate over their thick bourgeois heads. I said, 'Oh dear, I see I'm blocking the way for you four people,' and they then glowered and reluctantly went single file past me. Absolute wankers.

Try being in the asda and old people just clog up the whole shop while the woman dodders in the middle of aisle trying to decide what to buy and the felja is sheepishly close behind wishing he was somewhere else. But they do it slowly and slap bang in the way of everybody else. Your time is more valuable than mine so you'd better get a move on Darby and Joan.
