Fountain Of Uncouth
(I am working at a fireworks stand. By Texas law, shoppers are not allowed to handle the fireworks before they purchase them, so a staff member is assigned to help customers at each area of the store. Currently, I am stationed near a type of fireworks called ‘fountains’. Because most customers are unfamiliar with fountains I call out to them as they pass. I am a sixteen-year-old girl.)
Me: *to a middle-aged man* “Sir? Can I interest you in some fountains?”
Customer: “Honey, the only fountain I’m interested in is the one you’re running through naked.”
