Productive snottyness towards strangers

when seated on the bus and notin a mood to deal with others bodily bodies, dribble out the corner of your mouth down your chin - very rarely does any fucker dare come near

Sounds like me at my work place, where I have achieved a new realm of perfection in this regard.

A while back a coworker dealt with someone at the Loan Desk protesting a library reserves fine.

COWORKER: "You have to talk to Ned about that, he's the Reserves Billing Supervisor."

PATRON: "...Is that the long haired guy with glasses?"

COWORKER: "Yes."

PATRON (with look of fear): "I'll pay, I'll just pay!"

Productive snottiness without *even having to be there* = classic.

Today I'm on line for salad next to this well-groomed businessman, and I notice he's wearing an enamel representation of the U.S. flag pinned to his lapel. By the time my salad comes back I've worked up my courage. I grin, kind of point to his pin and go "hey! America! right on!" and flash him the peace sign. 49 different reactions scramble for purchase...

the 50th being alaska... not sure what was "productive" about this but it felt sooo right.

gangsta gangsta how do you do it?
