I know I shouldn’t have done this, but I’m 83 years old and this morning, while I was in the McDonald’s drive-through, the young lady behind me honked her horn and started mouthing something because I was taking too long to order.
So, when I got to the first window, I paid for her order along with mine. The cashier must have mentioned what I did because as we moved up, she leaned out her window, waved at me, and mouthed "Thank you," clearly embarrassed that I responded to her rudeness with kindness.
When I reached the second window, showed them both receipts and took her food too.
Now she has to go back to the end of the line and start all over again.
So, a little tip: Don’t honk at older folks; we’ve been around a while!
A funny one which I had not heard before…. As reported in Quora Digest:
