Ok, so i very rarely, if ever, get trapped by anyone for a religious conversation. Let alone complete strangers in line at the local home depot where i went to buy painting supplies to paint what will be the new office. Yay for blood red walls!
Anyways, Hubby wanders off to go look at ladders (its a ladder.. what do you need to look at it for??) while i wait in the check out line. Some random guy gets in line behind and say hello, how are you. I say im fine. Yadda yadda, you know, all the polite stuff strangers are SUPPOSED to say to one another. He then proceeds to tell me how great he feels after the jewish holiday and how its like confession times 1000. He then asked me if i have gone to confession recently. Um, no, i reply, i am not catholic. He asks my religion (who the fuck asks a complete stranger their religious beliefs while standing in the home depot check out lane??) and i respond Wiccan, thinking that it will scare him off and he will leave me alone (no offense to any Wiccans out there, but you know as well as i do people tend to be scared of what they dont know/understand). *sigh* It didnt scare him away. He asked me a ton of questions about it, and thankfully i know enough to give vague answers. He wasnt rude. He was polite and curious. But damn it was weird.
Who the fuck DOES that??
