Just how fuckin' toe-up do I LOOK?

At the grocery store, I bought a sandwich, a bottle of soda and a candy bar. The bagger asks me "Would you like help outside?"

Ummm................................................................NOOOOOO?

Good thing I didn't buy Tic-Tacs, or she would've had me in one of those shopping scooters.

That's it - I'm coloring my beard. Maybe blue.

Don't take it personally - the baggers are supposed to ask you as part of their job. That way if anyone hurts themselves on the way out, the store can say "well, we're not to blame - we offered to help you carry those heavy bags!"

You're right - my wife told me pretty much the same thing. In my case, with one small bag, it was probably force of habit. I've answered my home phone with my call center greeting twice.

You ain't gotta be anonymous - I appreciate the input.

I'd join you, but I might break somethin' 'portant and angry up the blood.

I was trying not to crack up when she asked me - I think I played it off well enough ("Um, no, thanks.").
