I just called a woman a cheeky cow in Asda

[bupcakesandcunting]

Was just looking at the baked goods in Asda, minding my own when I heard this really loud voice go "excuse me!" Thought "she can't be talking to me as I am not obstructing the aisle" then this woman shoulder barged me and another shopper, glared at me and went "don't all move at once, will you?!" Sorry your majesty!

Something inside me clicked and I said "don't push past me, you cheeky cow!" she told me not to call her a cow and I told her not to be so rude in future. Then she said "do I look like a cow?" and I looked her up and down and did a "what do YOU think?" face.

Oh crikey, have become a screeching supermarket harridan. Does this type of thing happen in the Waitrose?

Our Waitrose is always full of people who look like tramps but are poshos in disguise. I think we call them eccentrics.

Yes I have seen a woman on her knees in Richmond Waitrose explaining to a toddler that "mummy only buys organic milk" and some other shit that I couldn't hear as I had to turn away so she wouldn't see me sniggering.

God I love Waitrose!

"Then she said "do I look like a cow?" "

well, ask a stupid qusetion...

Bup, I'll think you'll find that you sounded like a right drunk cunt

You do get the occasional fight in Tesco, but you have to go to the right one - there are two near us, in neighbouring towns, and one is nice, but the other one feels really claustrophobic, and that's where dh and I saw a husband, wife and their son, all somewhat pissed (as farts, actually) trying to have a fight with one of the Tesco staff about something - not sure what, though. They were being rather slurred.

As dh and I left, the family left too, and were berating the taxi drivers in the taxi rank there who (surprisingly) didn't want to drive them home (or back to the pub - not sure which). Their son, who did seem less inebriated than his parents, was trying to get them to leave, because he'd spotted the police arriving - but his parents were having none of it.

Dh meanly wouldn't stay so we could see what happened when the police arrived, and drove us to the other Tesco to do our shopping.

Your new name suits you sooooo much better

"I went into a Waitrose to wee once."

I know you meant a big Waitrose complete with lavs but now I have a mental picture of you squatting mid-cake-aisle and earwigging on Jacinta and Fintan's convo.

"Your new name suits you sooooo much better"

What you sayin' beyotch?

Your last name was far too twee and you don't come across as the twee type.

You are more of a cow

I would have reacted the same as you, probably even worse so YANBU

It could happen in waitrose if someone was silly enough to be like that to me whilst I shopped there (which is not often enough as so bloody expensive)

Am definately not ugly or smelly.

Well, it was on the tip of my tongue to tell her that maybe if she considered ATKINS she might not find accessing the aisles quite so problematic. She was rather, erm, girthy.

But when she started effing and jeffing at me and the spectators other shoppers were looking at her like shit, I thought "I have the moral high ground here" and left her to it. It's not often I have the MHG.

Heh, Heh Norma

doh!had to read op name real slowly to get the ta da

have always found the best arguments start in sainsburys queues

Bunch of dried up old miserable bags mainly who delight in tutting and whispering behind you because you don't pack your bags in a nano second.

I've unleashed my inner anger a few times at their twattish remarks and it felt flipping wonderful.

My Grandma (77) has a good come back to pushy 'ladies' in the queue which is 'You wouldn't be so quick to jump in my grave would you? No? Piss off then and wait like the rest of us'

I saw/heard a mum in Waitrose today saying to her daughter (in a stage whisper) 'Oh DARLING, shall we get some puff pastry to make those pinwheels we had last year. You remember, don't you, we spread pesto over it?'

Daughter appeared to be about 2.5 years old. I rather suspect she didn't remember.

My best supermarket verbal wrestle was in Sainso's. You get twats in there that think they're too lah-di-dah to set foot in Asda but aren't lah-di-dah enough to shop in the Waitrose.

y'all have such acrimonious shopping trips.clearly i have not lived

bupcakes, I love the Vic&Bob handbags clip

Link here to an old threadof mine. My fave bit of supermaarket twattishness ever.

I was in a queue of about three trollies in Tesco when a woman with one item asked if she could go first, no probs I replied, the woman behind me had a right old moan, I turned to her and said "everyone has the right to be ugly or stupid but your taking the piss by being both.

I thought she was going to have a fit.

The woman I let in didnt stop laughing as she paid.
