The mildly negative incident today wasn't as bad; I felt baited into a criminal harassment trap. I wouldn't fall into it, but I think some people would. Basically, the cashier spoke to a customer in front of me in line in a friendly way. Then I came up to the cashier it was kafka-esque as it always is.

Before she could ask another stupid question, he stuffed a roasted potato bite in her mouth.
She nipped his finger in the process then smiled. “Yummy. Again.”
