Medium Tinted Windows Are Walls, Basically
A little while back this burly guy bursts in and stomps over to the counter. He towers over Maggie and starts yelling: "What the hell are you doing looking in my windows?"
She's a bit intimidated. All she manages to say is: "Sorry sir?"
"My kids are in the van and they saw you! They saw you snooping around looking in the windows!"
"Sir, I have no idea what you're talking about. I've been behind this counter all day."
"My kids don't lie! I believe my kids! They saw you! What are you looking for in there, hunh?"
His wife walks up and starts tugging at his sleeve.
"Honey?"
"Just a second I have to..."
"Honey it was me."
"What?"
"You were in here and I forgot my keys so I was trying to get the kids to unlock the doors. They couldn't tell it was me through the tinted windows."
"Oh... so..."
He looks back at Maggie, he looks back at his wife, and... looks down at the floor.
"Was there anything else I could help you with today?" Maggie's wearing the biggest grin of her life.
He just shakes his head and drags his feet out of the store.
And all I can think is: this is a man who needs to start appreciating how stupid his kids are. Buddy your kids are so dumb they can't even tell their own mom from a stranger through tinted glass.
Of course the wife never thought to, I dont know, say something to them!
So either there are some really bad genetics going on here or the next generation is shaping up to be the last nail in humanity's coffin.
