Shouted at in Lidl

[WheresTheFire]

This morning I went to Lidl, I had a large trolley full and queued up behind a lady. I didn't put anything on the belt and kept back.
An elderly gentleman was behind me with 3 or 4 items in a basket. He had a walking stick so I asked him if he wanted to go in front of me. He thanked me and put his shopping on the belt.
He was at least a metre away from the lady and we all had masks on.
Well, the woman went ballistic, shouting at us and wagging her finger shouting at us to keep away and dont we know theres a virus about and it's not funny etc etc.
I'm afraid I shouted back saying if shes that worried maybe get her shopping delivered.
I felt so sorry for the gent, he didnt know what had hit him.

Oops, see. I AM loosing the plot! I combined this post with the one about who would you would vote for the president of the US, Trump or Biden

I shop in Lidl (actually I send my husband with a list).

Do I have to shop in Waitrose to be acceptable to Mumsnet?

[RizzleDrizzle]

possibly people are becoming unhinged from breathing in their own carbon dioxide from wearing masks all day

Oh you wear one of those magic one way masks that doesn’t protect you from the virus allows it in but doesn’t allow carbon dioxide out! Oooooookkkkay then

Sweetpea1542,
You've lost money in Vegas too?Very observant of you. That road on the I-15 is pronounced zizix. Amazing you even noticed it.

Very frickin' hot, indeed! Temps will drop at the end of the week. I shouldn't complain. I could be in the middle of Death Valley in 125 degree heat with all the crazy heat loving Germans.

Never did I imagine that my little thread about a shouty lady would turn into an American presidential debate

It didn’t it turned in to some one spouting weird conspiracy theories about Biden and Harris and how corona virus Started

[WheresTheFire]

@RizzleDrizzle yes you're right, very weird

Rizzle, there you go getting your panties in a twist again. Was Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxell a conspiracy theory? Was Trump getting his money to build his casinos from the Kosher Nostra a conspiracy theory? Was Trump lying when he stated that Lebanon was recently bombed a conspiracy theory.? There are things in this world you just don't know about .

[RizzleDrizzle]

I’m not the one upset someone doesn’t believe me!

Your the one that’s so keen to convince me and resorts to childish language like “knickers in a twist”

Rizzle, just hard to fathom that there are people who aren't very curious about the world around them.
