I was having a really annoying day, nothing really horrid, just one minorly annoying thing after another... friend canceling on me, kid forgot bag that required an hour of driving... that sort of thing. So after everything was done I stopped off at a local ice cream place for a scoop of something. It was quiet when I got there but got busier with kids and families etc. The tables around me were filled with a large ??family?? group, looked like college aged kids, parents maybe an aunt. They were quite rowdy so I started ready emails and trying to ignore them.
I overheard something about eye injury and then one of them loudly (and I mean like they were telling a tall tale in a pub kind of voice, something really hard to ignore) started talking about going to a sporting event and how someone's eye came out of its socket and the person was holding it in their hand.
At this point there was no way I was eating anymore icecream as the story was kind of gory and descriptive and I felt kind of sick. I'm not usually squeamish but eye injuries squick me out.
WIBU to give them a filthy look, especially one of the older adults and dump my ice cream and walk out? What about when that caused laughter from all of them and I turned round and gave them the "mother is not impressed" look. They stopped laughing then. I guess I could have said something but by then I felt sick and it was done and I wanted to leave pronto.
WWYD? Is it unreasonable to expect conversation to be more geared towards the fact people are eating?
