This happened yesterday while I was in WalMart.
-
Male cashier with multiple tattoos (two of them are colored in with rainbow):
How are you this evening?
-
Me:
Pretty good. Starving, obviously. How are you?
-
Cashier:
Not bad. I can't wait to get off my shift and get home to my boyfriend.
-
Woman behind me:
Wait, you're gay?
-
Cashier:
Yeah. . . ?
-
Woman:
That's a shame.
-
Me:
Why?
-
Woman:
He seemed like such a wonderful man, it's a shame he's gay.
-
Cashier:
Why is it a shame?
-
Woman:
It's wrong! It's immoral, it's dis-
-
Me:
Excuse me, but what's it to you if he's gay?
-
Woman:
It's offensive!
-
Me:
But how does it affect you?
-
Woman:
What?
-
Me:
Where exactly does it start to make sense that it affects you? A relationship is between 2 people, not 3.
-
Woman:
*sputters a bit, then leaves without her food*
-
Cashier:
. . . Wow, thank you.
-
Me:
Ignorant people are the reason I claim to be allergic to the human race.
