My favorite interactions was going into Walmart.

It was mid/early spring, right as things were starting to lockdown. I wasn’t wearing a jacket cuz it was glorious out.

Some old boomer lady started harassing me over not wearing a jacket and blah blah blah.

She wouldn’t shut up, and was blocking me from walking in, so I faked a sneeze. The look of horror on her face as she fled.

(And I’m pretty sure that was also the fastest time in and out of a Walmart…)

Why did she have a problem with you not wearing a jacket? What am I missing here?

it was in the 40's f (4-10 c) and it was still winter. Spring in MN, that's T-shirt weather. but boomer's just can't not treat middle-aged men like children.
