Puppy Panic, Starbucks Stupidity and Shopping Shitheads. Lupo goes shopping again!!

[Becks]

We all need 1 character flaw.

I wonder what you people think mine is?

I know that bus driver must have been tempted to tell her to just call the cops. He likely only didn't because that would tie him up for a couple of hours, but that would have sunk her right there. The cops would show up, look at the dog and his blind owner, then turn around and slap some cuffs on her for interfering with a working animal, public mischief, making a false call to 911 and plain being too stupid to function in civilized society.

If only that last one really were a crime...true, we'd have more jails than houses, but at least we wouldn't have to deal with quite so many SCs, EWs and Drama Queens.

But yeah, she needed a course in Reality 101. Or a Freaking Drama Queen.

And as for Entitled Old Lady... I don't blame you for snapping. You never feel good after snarling at someone like that... no matter how much they suck, they ARE weaker, smaller, and disadvantaged. But that's still not an excuse for them to be lousy people.

No, it isn't, but they think it is. Notice how the rudest ones are always the first to complain that others are rude to them?

well, whiskey, i can give you an idea of what the pumpkin would taste like; if you like the pie and drink coffee with it, you should like it.

if not, you can try it as a creme frappucino or a pumpkin iced milk if fraps aren't your thing.


lupo, if i were a man, i'd ask you to marry me and be proud of you!

the pwnage of the 'diabetic' was sheer genius!

I REQUIRE sugar free beverages.

while this may be true, the same holds for pastries and any other item, so your diabetic knowledge is either flawed, incomplete or varies with your wants.

[Pagan]

Balloon Fiesta. *sigh* It's been YEARS...

And I suppose I can forgive you for not liking pumpkin. Like I told BE. We all need 1 character flaw.

Sent you links to pictures I took. There'll be more.

I like the spices that go with it, but I don't like pumpkin. Come to think of it, I don't like squash, period.

But, I did just recently discover that I like fennel and bok choy!

AAnd as for Entitled Old Lady... I don't blame you for snapping. You never feel good after snarling at someone like that... no matter how much they suck, they ARE weaker, smaller, and disadvantaged. But that's still not an excuse for them to be lousy people.

Weaker and disadvantaged my ass. Not in one of those scooters, she wasn't. Hitting poor Lupo hard enough to leave bruises. *pets and hugs*

Diabetic Guy will probably take care of himself rather quickly, so no fix needed there.

That's IF he's actually diabetic. If he's just being a piss-artist for no reason, there is unfortunately no natural feedback mechanism. :-(

[Anakah]

HAHAHHA to the last one. I would love to be a fly on the wall when you took out that old bat!!! You're soooo my hero!!!! Same with starbucks guy--you rock!!!

[Magpie]

In the first story....the driver should have thrown her stupid ass off the bus.

Seconded

Please do a disabled person a favor and write to the METRO hq and name driver, route day and time, and give him a High Five for standing up for the person in need.

Also seconded.

And finally: anyone else think it's funny that the old woman in the last story is trying to play the "I'm disabled" card to get stuff done for her, when she's doing her best to cripple Lupo, and make being physically disabled less special?

[Cat]

The pumpkin lattes are indded to die for, though I have yet to meet a pumpkin food I do not love (ok, there is ONE pumpkin beer...but that is the brand of beer...most p-beer is good)

the diabetic dbag reminds me of customer I had when working in the "Dream of Chocolate" store. Now, we carried very little suger free candies, fruit things, no suger free chocolate....this jerk literally got in my face yelling at me that we didn't carry anything he could eat. I told him to call corporate...we sold treats, not neccessities.

[PepperElf]

COW: <splutters> You know what? I don't have to deal with this!! I'm never shopping here again!!

somehow i have a feeling the words "I don't work here" fell on deaf ears with that one.

That's easy: Not enough boob pics available of you

[Ironclad Alibi]

After reading about the pumpkin spiced latte, I asked my wife if she ever had one. Although she gets a daily coffee from Starbucks, she has never had that one.

The local Starbucks has concocted a drink they call "liquid pumpkin pie." She thinks they used steamed milk, the pumpkin spice flavoring and maybe something else in it, but no coffee. I think that since I had asked about the other drink, yesterday she bought me one of the "liquid pumpkin pie" drinks, with an extra shot of one of the ingredients. She tasted it and didn't like it. I tasted it, and loved it. A nice, hot, pumpkin pie drink. Yum, yum, yum! It warmed me all the through, and a few minutes later I was sweating from it. Now that's a hot drink.

As far as my wife knows, this was something dreamt up at the local store. I don't know if they have shared the recipe with other stores.

You have a point there.

Gotta take a few more.

[chainedbarista]

that drink is what is called a steamer, basically a syrup of choice in hot milk, so it's not really their invention, just a variation on what's available.

[mariamousie1]

I was thinking it was too bad for the grocery store for losing a customer when they didn't do anything, but then I thought why would they want that customer? You probably did them a favour!

Actually that woman reminds me of my grandma. She has a tendency to bump people at the store when she can't get past and it drives us all nuts. Also, she can never find anything and when she stops in an aisle she turns her cart so nobody can get past. Also, like the starbucks guy, she's a diabetic of convenience. She goes on and on about her diabetes and how she can only eat certain things, then later eats an entire box of Turtles.

As for the woman on the bus, what an idiot she is. I hope the bus driver thanked the blind man for his patience. If I were the blind person, I would have either just gotten off and waited for the next bus, or yelled at the woman for insulting my dog. I love dogs.

[Zellie Crescent]

Going to be waiting up for the Great Pumpkin, are we?

Yes, currently watching Lemon cut too many holes in his costume. And Lupo I would love to buy you a beer for the way you dealt with that old bitch with the motor cart.
