  • "I Am A Prince Of My Country!"

    Background: Heard this from a woman who heard this from her coworker at work. She works at "8-12" convenience stores. The man in this story is African, the girl is white, yes, this is relevant. </background>

    Guy comes in and picks up a candy bar for $1.89. Girls rings it out and says "$1.89 please."

    (with accent)"No, you pay."

    "Excuse me?"

    "I am a PRINCE in my country!"

    "...And?"

    "I don't pay for anything!" *Takes the candy bar and leaves*

    The guy was eventually banned because he stalked the girl for five days whenever she was in, screeching that he was a prince and she was some racist bitch. "Intolerable! Racist! I am PRINCE and I don't pay for anything!"

    He may very well have been a prince...but generally, don't royalty carry credit cards like the rest of us, or have some sort of royal tab they ring up?

        I think even in a lot of countries that still have royalty, they STILL pay for purchases! But in any case, yeah ... you may not have noticed, but you're not in your country right now, so cough up some dough.

          If he was a prince, he wouldn't be in a convenience store.

          He shouldn't have been banned, he should have arrested.

              That was my first thought!

              Also, as others have pointed out, royalty are expected to give money in exchange for goods and services, just like everyone else; they just have more money to spend than most of their countrymen do.

                Of course, I'm an asshole like that Seriously, at least locally, quite a few people seem to think that their supposed wealth means that everyone else has to kiss their ass.

                  OT: I'm related to an actual king, but he's a nominal king without any real power (although he does have a certain amount of social prestige).

                    I have a family friend who comes from a direct line related to Charlemagne, the Holy Roman Emperor.

                    Similarly, I knew a classmate whose mother was a direct line back to Christopher Columbus.

                      Hey! A good friend of mine is one of Charlemagne's descendants. She wasn't impressed when she found out, though...
