  • 'You are brainwashed, they have brainwashed you."

    I swear that I have a giant, flashing, neon sign that says "Sucky people come here."

    Today's little gem:

    ME: A southern girl who was raised with a thing called MANNERS and respect for
    others
    SC: hmmmm,...... notsomuch.

    SC: Can you help me?

    ME: "Yes, sir. What can I do for you."

    SC: "Don't call me sir. that is not my name. You are brain washed....they have brainwashed you."

    ME: followed by my patented death glare.

    SC:......

    ME: What do you want?

    SC was looking for perfume. So I walked over to the Jewelry counter where the person who also covers fragrances was and ask him about the perfume. He says we do not have it. I glare back over at SC, to make sure he heard, then walk away.

    Just damn. This was the ONE time in my life that I immediately had a great comeback -two in fact- and could not use it.

    What I so wanted to say???

    "Ok, I am not psychic and have no clue what your name is (nor what a giant ass you are) so I shall call you Fred. And since manners offend you... What the hell do you want, Fred?" I at least got some use out of the second part.

    That or

    "Oh, I am sure that anyone who does not think EXACTLY like you is 'brainwashed."

    Just thought of another great comeback.

    " I love my brainwashings....they keep the cobwebs out."

    Geez, you gotta wonder if his parents were that rude too to turn out like he did. Who the hell gets offended when they're called "sir"?

    Brainwashed? It's called "I get a paycheck to call your rude ass 'sir'"! Not brainwashed!

        I am almost certain that he is of the "If you don't think like me you are brainwashed" variety.

        Funny thing is ever since Waco and Heaven's gate, I have been studying cults and mind control. To me, it is just fascinating how someone can control a large group of people like that. It has lead to my degree in psychology.

        I *really* wanted to ask him if he even had an ounce of a clue what being 'brainwashed' even meant. However, I am sure he was of the " I know all" variety so I just chewed on my tongue.

          I should ad that I got Baron van Driver from a comedy play I encountered in high school English class (I forget the name of the play). I have a friend whose last name is Baron and I want him to buy a van.

            SC: "Don't call me sir. that is not my name.
            ok; you don't know his name, and by most social rules, calling someone other than 'sir, ma'm or miss' when you don't know their name is rude, so what exactly, was he expecting to be called?

            *agrees with edible* i'm for picking some random (and insulting) name instead; how about sir ima baggypants ladouchebag esq.?

              I'll say "please don't call me sir". But, I'm not rude about it. I just find it a little uncomfortable.

              If they keep doing it, I just let them. It's probably the most benign part of their corporate script.

                  "You are brainwashed,... they have brainwashed you."

                  Me: "Braaaaaains..." -accompanied by idle stare and lunge at the customer-

                  OR, for more random insulting names: asshat, aretard, adolf, dickwad, fface, and, of course, gaylord fauker.

                    "I didn't know you were called Dennis."
                    "Well, you didn't bother to find out, did you?"

                          ME: "Yes, sir. What can I do for you."

                          SC: "Don't call me sir. that is not my name. You are brain washed....they have brainwashed you."
                          "Oh, alright then, assbag, Terribly sorry to have offended you, fuckface. How can I help you, shit-for-brains?"

                          Damn. How can anybody be offended by being called "sir" or "ma'am"? I rather enjoy it. Makes me feel important.

                          And besides, if the employee has been instructed to address you as "sir" or "ma'am", they're only doing their job.
