MAGAt at the grocery store today
Walking in I was hoping there would be someone checking out egg prices and as I approached the
egg section a 50's couple were going from group to group comparing prices. When I got beside them
and had looked at a couple prices I blurted out " My gosh how the price of eggs has gone up. I
thought he promised to bring the price down?" (read on DU to do that!)
Without missing a beat the MAGAt spewed out "WELL WE HAVE TO GIVE HIM TIME!" I replied "Well
we sure in the hell didn't give Biden any time did we? At least he was smart enough not to say
stupid shit!" Turned and walked away to de-escalate the situation.
And wouldn't you know it, I happened to get behind them in the check out lane and both would not
look my direction. Right there on the candy rack someone had left one of those $7 loaves of bread
and when the clerk wasn't looking it somehow got added to the MAGAts stuff and nobody caught it.
They paid for it and left. Felt good to let my ornery side out.
If any semblance of this story happened, I'm figuring it went like this...
Spinning Wind DUmmie: I thought the orange man was going to lower prices on eggs!!!
Normal Person: Well, the democrats have things so screwed up after four years of anti-American BS that it would take anyone a little while to get things straightened out. At least we have someone in there now who is not actively trying to make the prices go up. You know, someone who cares a little bit about America and Americans.
Spinning Wind DUmmie: Uhhhhh. <then walks away red-faced with steam coming out of its ears thinking, "the stories on DU don't go that way so I'll have to make something up to make me look less stupid and idiotic">
