Flo and Friends by Jenny Campbell for August 09, 2022

I know what you mean. The perfect comeback always comes to you when it’s too late to use it.

A single gesture usually do the trick (and leaves one hand free to bag your items).

Or find another supermarket.

next time, keep a knife in your purse Granny. The last thing in my life is having a stranger lecture me about life at 42 years of age, let alone being over 60, and for something not of direct impact on them or to the moment

Ahem: I FORGOT MY BAGS AT HOME. Now, can you just pack my groceries & get outta ma face!?!?!? If they’re trying to be nice about it, you can gently, mildly say yeah, I know, I know…I forgot my bags at home…memory lapse…just wait, some day you’ll do this too.

I like MYOB better!

If another person in line chided me for forgetting my own bags, I would ask if the person had extras to help me out. If the checkout person did it, I would walk out, leaving all my food. I do my best, and that will have to be enough.

That is the best way!

What kind of A-hole sees fit to lecture a total stranger about anything? With the Covid derangement condition still messing people’s minds up, you’re risking getting screamed at in best case. We’ve read about people shooting up McDonald’s over cold french-fries for God’s sake.

Here’s one you can use, “You need a nose job, because it keeps getting stuck in other people’s business”.

Why would I want to place food into a bacteria infested container?
