Funny but a bit embarrassing
I was in the supermarket wearing my work clothes - worn out jeans and T-shirt with holes (so looked a bit down on my luck) and was buying premium grade cat food for Toby the ex-wild cat. In the queue the lady in front of me said "Your cat is lucky getting that stuff". I thought I was being funny and replied "It's not for the cat it's for me. It's guite good, I fry it and have it on toast." When I got to pay for it the checkout girl said the lady in front of you has already paid for it

hahahha, hilarious. Wow!
Well, she feels good that she did a good deed. Now, pay it forward. Take some food to someone that is homeless or volunteer someplace or something.

Unless you fry it up, and have it on toast, it's a open & shut case of outright fraud if you ask me

I was in a grocery store pretending to enjoy my shopping experience and there was one of those displays with little cut up pieces of Spam or whatnot. Yes it was not Spam. It was not even whatnot. It was fancy-do cat food. I'd popped one down the hatch just in time to see the lady react in sort of horror. Awful.

Thats funny. You have to at least take a bite and post a picture.
Reminds me of one many years ago. I was sitting on a short wall in front of a Safeway waiting for a co worker to come out with his lunch. I had been working on an old rusty cast iron pool pump that was in a cold basement pump room. I was covered in rust and dirt. I took my damp hat off, set it on the wall next to me, leaned back on the grass hill behind me in the warm sunshine and dozed off. Co worker come out and asked why I had $2 in my hat. Someone tossed some money in my hat while I was catching rays. I got razed for that for a long time after. |

You need to pay this forward and do something kind for someone, even if it's a cat. Or you could just go with it, munch down some premium cat food and sit on floor and lick your butt.

I was elbow deep in grease, unshaven, wearing greasy clothes etc. She walked by with her folks and her siberian Husky. I went out to see her husky and she was repulsed by me I could tell that she didn't want me to even touch her dog. she still denies it to this day that we met before a year later when I was all cleaned up.

That's a damn funny story. Would've been better if she'd seen you get into your P-car on the way out. ![]()

I have no idea, Zoom. I did not even glance at anything other than the plate of whatever it was I ate. Why the stoopeed store would do this is one of the mysteries of the universe. Awful.

Someone gave my father 25 cents for a grocery cart last week, they said he 'looked like he needed it'.
