    Pretty meh so far, at least until tonight before I got off work: shortly before closing, I had an asshole come up, buy some cigarettes (I work at a gas station), and then and only then after having finished his transaction, turns to me and says, “Just so you know, there’re only two genders.”

    I responded with, “Just so you know, I don’t care.” and then he flipped me the bird without even looking at me as he was walking away.

    This is not the first time this has happened to me, and I try to put on a tough face to these dick-waffles, but honestly, it still hurt me and I hate how I’m emotionally vulnerable to it, even if I don’t show it to them. :(

     


    Edit: Hooooly SHIT. The dude just came by today and apologized for his behavior.

    I accepted it gratefully and gracefully but godDAMN was I not expecting that. I am…so confused. I am happy…but confused.
