An Actual Conversation

I try not to judge. I really do.

An actual conversation I had with a man while standing in line:

Man: Excuse me ma'am, but may I say your feet are very attractive.

Me: Oh, well, thank you. I don't hear that very often.

Man: You take good care of your feet. Some women's feet look like they been climbin' trees and flingin' poo. It's just nasty. But you, you have nice feet.

Me: That's nice of you to say.

Man: In fact, if you was a black girl, I would ask if I could kiss those feet.

Me: Um.....

Thank God in Heaven that at that moment the cashier greeted me and asked for my preferred customer card so that I didn't have to answer the creepy foot fetish guy.

to prove to alex that we do read your blog, may i just say: that man is just plain wrong, not that you don't have nice feet (i actually have no clue) but randomly having that conversation in a store line and then pulling the race card... super creepy and weird

That is GREAT! It's crazy how awkward people can make us feel by saying such bizarre things :-)
