Curmudgeonly yours.

Today was one of those days I should have not interacted with the world-at-large, for my stupidity tolerance threshold is set way too low lately

The mom and the balloon - the mom probably was totally unaware that balloon whacking *could* be noticed, because she no longer notices it - it doesn't exist. She could not correct the kid about things that no longer penetrate her consciousness.

I should add that I don't blame you for being annoyed.

See, I'd have been less annoyed if she hadn't kept just smiling at me like "Oh, you know kids" every time her kids bumped me or whacked me. She DID notice, just didn't do or say anything about it. That's why I wanted to smack her.

But I got ice cream, so all was well. :)

But then...didn't you just end up paying more and giving the shop more money...

I didn't say my pettiness was LOGICAL. :)

Oooooooo kid!whacking. Nice.

contemplating taking a balloon away from a small child and whacking said child and her mother with it. It seemed only fair, considering how many times I had been hit with the balloon.

Man, that's so annoying. One of the few benefits of being wee is that kids' balloons tend to not hit me. :)

In retaliation, I ordered larger containers than I'd planned of the hardest-to-scoop ice cream.

Sometimes being petty has sweet rewards.

BWAH! Yep, officially want to have your tippets now. ;)
