So much for conspicuousness
(Walking out of the Student Union, onto the promenade between buildings, and on the way to class I spot two undergrad sorority-type girls in tie-dye t-shirts, comfy hoodies and oversized sunglasses. Armed with snacks-a-plenty, including open bags of pretzels and what looks like a ziploc bag full of brownies [surprise, surprise..] they are chatting away as I catch the tail-end of their conversation.)
Girl1 to Girl 2, effortlessly: ...and, ya know, I really don't have shit to do today...
(They see me getting closer and kind of quiet down, but only a half-step too late)
Me: Well, happy 4/20 then, I guess.
(The girls look at me, then at each other, and then start cracking up. The laughter gets louder as I walk farther away.)
Generic parking lot altercation
(After waiting for someone to pull out of their parking spot, a girl comes in out of left field and steals my parking spot. I pull my car in front of her to box her in. She gets anxious and pretends to fidget for her belongings for ~3 minutes to avoid looking me in the eye or getting out of the car and confronting me. As if by an act of God, the spot next to her opens up and I pull in. At that very time she springs from her car and makes a mad dash for campus, still trying to avoid me. I pop out of my car and call out to her...)
Me: Miss! Excuse me, Miss! Did you not see me waiting for that spot?
Girl: (lifting a cell phone to her ear, pretending to be preoccupied) ...No...
Me: I had my reverse lights on and my blinker on.
Girl: ...
Me: I waved to you. You waved BACK at me!
Girl: Oh yea.. no. I don't know... There are like 10 other spots..
Me: (giving her a quizzical look that could only mean, "actually, there are like NO other spots...") Don't you realize how bad you just messed up your karma?!
Girl: (unabashed, quickly scurries off to class.)
