awkward

this happened this weekend also, before I forget.  It’s not really funny.  At the time it was very awkward. The sequences of things and the words were a 1 for 1 reproduction so I’m hopeful the weirdness of the scene might translate to you the viewer as well.  After he said the school thing I just kind of mumbled and walked away. What are you supposed to say to that? Also, I say thanks way too much. What I really meant to say was “dude seriously?” but my superego steps in involuntarily every time.

I don’t mind getting carded. I DO mind when someone opens with that in a checkout tho.  Also, I’m pretty sure the guy didn’t believe me. which is funny because I’m also pretty sure I was older than him. I just look young. but honestly not that young. I dunno. whatever. It’s 2 and I’m going to go to bed.

    Nothing seems to strange until his last comment. At that point it’s WTF? Around then I would’ve just picked up the beer, smiled, and carefully back up away from him without making any sudden movements.
    Hope today goes better than that.

    Ok, as someone who works a job where I card people daily,
    1. That guy is kind of an ass. Lol
    2. If he really did look at it in those three ways he is a tool. And that is greatly funny. Haha
    3. The other guy is right, if he said that to me, I would have backed away slowly, made no sudden movements, placed myself between him and my lady friend, then ran away from the creeper. Lol
    But as always, love your work. Even thinking about commissioning you.

        I KNOW I’M SORRY! I posted that without looking at we who said it then realized it was you. Lol. Then I was like, “oh shit, what have I done!?” I follow your stuff on HF so it was a facepalm moment for me. Haha.

    To be fair Faustie, I have always said you are too cool for school.

    Not sure if there is anything to say to that, i’ve never actually heard someone say that phrase in real life, I think i’d just fix him with my second best “leave me the fuck alone” stare and walk away.
    I don’t really mind getting asked for ID, it’s just the way some of them ask for it.
    Anyway I really like the expressions in this, gave me a good laugh before heading off to my between jobs job.

    I feel flattered when I get carded ^_^

    Robyn, that is cuz you are a hot girl. I card hot girls to flatter them on purpose. When someone cards a guy it’s nbd but when someone is an ass about it, it is like a shot at our manhood.

    Bah… getting carded’s not bad dude. You do apparently say ‘Thanks’ way too often though…

    When i worked at a register i used to card people for fun though it was mandatory. We were told “elder” people may buy for minors so we card them. Makes no sense in the grand scheme of things but what ever. I carded a 70 something year old woman and she got pissed at first then laughed it off later XD
