"The Yakub be acting a fool at Whole Foods... " Sat Feb-14-15 04:10 PM by CRichMonkey
Man, we tryna get our organic vittles on and these muhfuckas are out in full force and acting fully entitled.
But yeah, this one white dude was really on some shit today by the bourbon. A nigga like me was looking for a bottle to take to dinner tonight and this dude was just standing in front of the bottles blocking the whole section, talking on the phone.
So I'm like, "Yo, 'scuse me..." and he turns around, gives me a pissed off look and points at his phone like, "Can't you see I'M busy?" and kept blocking the booze.
But I say it again, "Excuse me, chief." and he says to whoever he's on the phone with, "Uh, some people have no manners."
Bruh.
I'da hit him, but I ain't wanna fuck around and catch measles.
So I see his ass when I'm on my way out and he give me a look like I'm the jerk.
Fuck that guy.

I can't deal with that nonsense either, so when I say "excuse me" my hand is already on that person's back/shoulder. Everything seems to go much smoother after that. Unfortunately I can't use that tactic on old Asian & Spanish women. No bs I let somebody slide with this earlier (at Whole Foods too), and paid the price. Buffalo Wing Sauce was on sale and these white dudes were having a conversation right in front of the display. I maneuvered around them awkwardly and hit my head on one of the small sale signs. I don't want to go around Deebo'ing cats, but the entitlement levels can be off the chain, especially at places like Whole Foods.

like they would do… they never say excuse me
then go over to a sample table with no one partaking in samples, witness how all of a sudden they all want samples
and when on the checkout line, stand close to the ones in front of you hitting them with your basket like they do… or back into the ones behind you while trying to look at some randomly placed last minute item

it recently. Traffic, line at the grocery store, airport lobby.
I'm not taking shit from someone I'm never going to see again, and who I know isn't going to actually hit me.

i live in a predominately white/asian suburb. people have been too rude to say thank you when I held doors, and they're good for brushing past in stores without saying excuse me
14. "used to think it was me...but then...I looked around" In response to Reply # 0
realized they equally rude to each other too....their entitlement knows no race.... once I realized that....I just dial my own entitlement up to 20 and add a dash of militant angry Black man...and a dash of Dad with a child into the mix....
I don't really get fcked with no more....
I just move in real close while my daughter is talking and singing really loud....that generally clears the area with the quickness....allowing me unobstructed access to all the whole goods....
These are the same people that cut others off in traffic.
The same folks who get on a crowded metro train and stand at the door like no one is behind them.
The same people who walk in groups of four taking up the entire sidewalk and start looking at each other while they talk because its too much trouble to open space for people walking in the opposite direction.
Everywhere they are rudeness and associated bullshit follows.

I wear the "I just got fired by a motherfucker who looks just like you" face when I'm in ti's with my kids. They need to move to a larger building, because the spot in Chapel Hill is way too small.

Every time I go into one I fell like spazzing on someone for their overly-entitled behaviour. I've taken to briskly brushing past people like it's their fault for being in my way. Whole Foods really brings out my inner asshole. Needless to say, I generally avoid that place except for when I run out of veganaise.
