People who stand too close to you in line at the store

[revoltub]

So I was at the local convenience store/gas station. Ran in quick to grab a drink after I got some gas.

While I'm at the counter and the guy is ringing me up, I feel breath against my neck. Very warm, sticky feeling breath. I think I felt some spit too. Mouth breather.

I do a spin around and some crackhead looking dude is literally standing about 2 inches behind me, slightly to the right. Breathing heavy with body language that indicated he was in a rush and had 0 patience. He was so close I almost bumped him when I turned around.

I always stand at least a foot behind the person in front of me. I don't know what the deal was with this guy, but it wasnt the first time this happened. Some people just really, really stand too close.

Anyone have this happen to them?

Grind on their crotch to assert dominance.

You need to learn from this violent unsung hero.

The land whale kept getting close to the guy and even bumped to him a few times. He then filled the checkout line with shopping carts

I’ve had this happen to me. I actually act like I’m looking around and swing my arms and hit them. They are usually so fuckin unaware it takes an actual huge bump before they move like 5 inches away. Like the first couple of times I graze them and they don’t seem to notice or mind, so I have to legit hit them for them to consider even moving.

They probably just don’t have a good sense of distance/personal space but they are fuckin idiots I swear

This is why god gave you the ability to do rancid farts

 

[Bobby00]

Ghouls probably.

I've read that is a problem or maybe better said difference autistic people have. They don't have the same personal space relationship as typical people do. Some doctors have suggested if the cause of personal space is figured out it might lead to a cure for autism.

Turn around and fake sneeze in their face.
It has a 100% efficiency rate

This generally is one of the good things I've noticed coming from COVID, people generally give each other more space in line now. I mean theres always going to be some idiot like this but they're more of the exception now than the rule.

When standing in line you should always flex your sidemuscles to show you are not to be trifled with

See - it gave us all a weapon. I just clear my throat like one of those old guys who always has flem and hack a big nasty cough.

Shit clears out fast. No Juan wants cofefe

It's like their pea brain logic is if they crowd your personal space the line will somehow go faster.

people standing too close to you at the store usually step away after you turn around and ask them

100 Percent...That was one of the only "Rules" during the Sweet and Sour Sniffles "Pandemic" that made sense along with keeping ones hands clean..but that faded quick and now its back to people bumping and grinding in waiting lines.
