Lol! I'm fine. No worries.
I was walking around yesterday calling them wankers. Where did that word come from? I've never used it in my life and it's a word I never hear. But it popped in my head and it fit perfectly.
YOU'RE ALL NOTHING BUT A BUNCH OF WANKERS!

Aussie slang. As long ago as 1987, my Australian cousin (the non-religious 2nd, 3rd or 4th cousin; we have the same great great grandfather) was swearing about wankers.

Thanks, Juju, for the info. So, now I will blame your influence on me, instead of Kitt.

MAKE SURE YOU EAT SOMETHING BEFORE YOU GO OUT. IT SOUNDS LIKE YOU MAY HAVE LOW BLOOD SUGAR.

Omg! One of the first customers of the day. A loony tunes, old lady.
She just moved across the street, so she decided to take a walk and she is just checking things out. (Fine, so far, I think)
Well, she continued, she lived 2 miles down the road for the past 16 years, so she knows the area. She moved into condo (across the street. Odd, that development is all houses, no condos) because her daughter lives in Connecticut and the daughter doesn't want to talk to her at 8 pm. So when Christmas and the daughters birthday came, this woman had no idea what to buy her. So, then her husband asked if she wanted to sell her house to make money. She would only agree to it if they moved near their daughter. So, now, their house is sold, but the new place they bought is behind schedule, so that's why they had to rent for 2 months. The most expensive time of the year to rent. (Why didn't they rent up near their daughter?)
Anyway, it keeps going on and on, and she's already chased 2 customers out of the store with her babbling.

So, the last customer I had, I could tell was going to be annoying. One of these ones that just walk around for a long time but isn't going to buy anything, which leaves me stuck at the register when I have other things to do., away from the counter. And it's hot. And it's humid. And I have no air conditioning.
So, she finally asks what the price is for a 36 pound bag of fertilizer is. I tell her it's $29. She says that's so expensive. I agree with her, and I tell her that everything has gone up in price.
Next thing out of her mouth is that she's yelling at me that it's the Presidents fault.
Huh? Who? What?...
My head turned around so fast, and I said, "What? Fertilizer comes from Russia, and there's a war over there so the price went up."
I didn't bother to go into deeper or more details. Her brain wouldn't have been able to handle it.
Well, she retorts back, "It is Biden's fault! Everything starts with him and he's to blame!"
I'm hot, I'm tired, I'm not in the mood. I look her straight in the eye, and snap at her, "You're wrong! End of story! And we're not discussing this anymore." I turned around and walked off.
2 minutes later, we decided together that an 18 pond bag of fertilizer is all she really needed, and she left happy.
End of story.

Just got off the phone with a little old lady demanding to know why her tomatoes aren't turning red. Sigh.

Well, let's hope she calls back. I never thought of that.
But then again, who grows tomatoes in the shade? Except you, Dipo.

LOL, well it wasn't exactly shade but it was a part of my balcony that got shade in the afternoon. Once I moved them to the part that got sun all day they "redded" right up.
Who Knew .... not me, LOL.

Good job, Grooch, jollying her up. Now you can really go to work on her by reassuring her that you actually know your shit, and then referring her to you being right about the fertilizer. Har.har.har! And then challenge her to ask you about something she suspects might not be true politically, and assure her you will give her the straight poop on it because you do indeed know your shit. Sell her another bag of fertilizer while you are at it. Hell, you might as well become her new cult leader because you sure as shit are better than the last one she had. Consider it saving barren souls one fertilizer bag at a time.
I am pretty sure you will blossom at it.

Heh, I have a friend that has this wonderful response to idiots like this. When they start ranting about Biden, or liberals, or Democrats, she says: Interesting you feel that way. Let's see how this (Biden voter, liberal, Democrat) can help you solve (shopper issue).
Shuts them up every time.
