So...I'm at the safeway, buyin' some food. I want the good sliced turkey from the deli. There's no deli lady. I flag one down.
"Deli lady," I say, "Could you come chop my meat?"
"Sure," she says. She turns out to be the mom of two of the kids from the kids class where I used to do judo.
We chat a little while she bags my meat.
Meanwhile, this girl who has just been standing at the unmanned counter the entire time takes out her phone.
"YEAH...I'm still at the store," She says, "I'm in the deli line, and of course this cow is helping her friend before me and I have to sit here while she takes forever and talks about her kids' little leauge and stuff so I don't know how long I'll be really"
What passive aggressive bullshit, I think.
She hangs up.
"Hey," I say, as sarcastically as possible (Note:Very) "look I'm really sorry I held you up there, Princess."
"Thanks," she says, without irony.
"So..." I continue,"I feel really bad"
She gets that "Is he hitting on me" face.
"So I want to help you finish your shopping. The tiara polish is on aisle 9, the chihuahua chow is on aisle seven and you can find diet books next to the magazine rack, where you can get an US magazine that will tell you how to replace last year's tacky phone and stupid fuzzy boots with this year's."
The deli girl starts coughing intensely as I walk away.
So did I A) do nothing wrong
Fucked up by not letting her go first since she was standing there or C)I was rude by I canceled it out by being awesome?
That's my question to you, SE++, and I'll extend it by asking: What stupid shit did people say in front of you today? There are no prizes for participation and no-one cares, because your story isn't as good as mine, but you may answer anyway.

You did good, kid. Real good.
two preppy dudes come in with popped collars and stand next to each other at the urinals
'what are you doin?'
'oh, not much, pissin'.'
'ugh... i know, right?'
and they finish up and leave.
totally.
Edit: of which you speak?
you might have helped get deli lady in trouble with her boss, but if I were her I'd think it was worth it

I host a podcast about movies.
You could have killed them. It would have never made it to trial. I promise you that.
For what? I don't work there. I went and got her to slice my meat. People that work complaint lines know to ignore every third complaint because the caller is a cunt.

Hahaha, I don't even have to watch the video to know what that is, nicely done.
Need some stuff designed or printed? I can help with that.
so this is euphemism right
Okay me and my friend are adopting this schtick.
The other day, some guy came into the washroom still talking on his cell phone. He went to a urinal, pissed, and walked out, all while still talking on his phone.
I made sure to pee as loudly as I could.
that's fucking amazing
i saw the other dude yesterday and he was pissing and texting at top speed at the same time
it was like machine-gun fire of cell phone buttons
i was impressed
Can you google map it or something because I have no fucking clue how to find it.
Where the fuck is far? And the hell do you not know whether you were there or not?
And he passive aggressively destroyed every LEGO set of mine that I had built and set up in a beautiful portrait of greatness.
He didn't wash his hands?
You should have peed on his shoes.
It reminds me of a time my friend wanted to piss at half time at a football game, so to clear a crowded trough urinal he dropped his pants all the way to his ankles like a little kid.

Hahaha yes that's pretty much all I could think of when first reading it. I was like "oh god where is this sex story going"
did you passive-aggressively kill his dog
He had no time for simple matters such as basic hygiene.
He was a man on a mission.
passive-aggressives also lie a lot and generally know that if they bitch enough at the right person they'll eventually get their way
I already asked that and it was nicely answered by Grover
I was afraid when I got to "come chop my meat". Those deli slicer machines are terrifying.
