Today in the supermarket

[ms.peachy]

I was bending down looking for something in the dairy case (lemon yogurt, if you must know) and then I stood up and stepped back without looking, in a sort of absent minded way, as you do. Except there was a fellow behind me and I nearly knocked him over. So I grab him to steady him and noticed that he was blind (dark glasses, white cane, that sort of thing) but as I was clocking this, what was already coming out of my mouth was "I am so sorry, I didn't see you!"

He patted my arm and said " 'tsalright luv, I didn't see you either."

Which struck me as very humourous.

:cool: <---- like that?

[kaiser soze]

Thank god you bumped into him

I bet he was about to look up your skirt.....with his hand!

pretty cool that he called you "luv", I bet he's a smooth operator

I am still tramatized by the lady in the wheelchair that yelled at me for using the handicap stall at a movie theatre ... after the show let out and all of the stalls were full and I was about to pee my pants ... so I went into the stall with the big handicap sign on it and when I came out the old lady in the wheelchair yelled at me and I cried.

I was 8 years old.

Fucking bitch.

^^How did she know you wasn't disabled? - I have a disabled badge to park (never use it tho except in emergencies) and I look like any other human being... just a bit of a tard here ;)

you're right, fucking bitch!

plus handicap is the wrong word to use these days. I think even disabled is being stopped my the european courts - differently-abled maybe the new handicrap!

supermarkets are throbbing with sexual frustration.

'Luv' is just a Northern way of addressing a lady. Nothing else to it.

In the West Midlands everybody calls everybody "Darlin'". A 'Big Issue' seller once said "Cheers, darlin'" when I bought a copy of said rag. Admittedly, I did have long hair at the time, so it's possible he mistook me for a bearded woman, but I digress.

Also, in certain parts they say "Duck", as in "Cheers, duck!". What da fuck's up with that??!?!!??

[Adam]

yeah, but also: older males oop north will call other males 'luv' - kinda creepy and glad those sorts are dying out (y)

A male friend of mine the other week called me 'darling'. But he is gay...

tee hee homo!

[Freebasser]

"Alright, luv?" ;)

Bus drivers. They're partial to calling anyone luv. I've been called 'blue' by a bus driver too. "Cheers blue" :confused:

[Adam]

w00t over 3k of posts Y~R! Grats

bus drivers are weird - was you wearing a blue top or something? Or have blue eyes?

[Yorkshire~Rose]

*pulls party popper* :D

I don't recall what i was wearing and i have blue/greeny eyes but he called it other people too so who knows!
