Outrage line check please:
At my local restaurant/pub with another couple. We are wrapping up and other couple leaves early to go get their keed. Wife and I are left and each have like half a beer. Table gets cleared of everything except beers.
We are adjacent to the bar on a 4 seat hi-top. Place is pretty full and people are standing 2 deep at the bar, behind the people sitting at the bar. A few minutes after table is cleared and other couple leave, some GUY I've never seen before(I know a lot of people/staff in this establishment) just puts his full beer down on our table next to my beer and just turns back to bar and starts yapping with group at bar.
I side-eye my wife and she looks at me like wtf is this clown doing. We both kind of laugh at how GAUCHE this guy is being, and I say something like 'who the **** would think that is ok?...'
The fact is, if this GUY had turned to me and said ' do you mind if I put this here for a minute?' I would have insta-replied 'sure...', but he didn't. He just put his beer on our table. Paint below, and I also took a pic afterward in case I wanted to make this post. Beer in image is where he put his beer directly behind mine:
So after a couple minutes, he turns back to us and grabs his beer like we aren't even there and turns back to his group. I'm literally right in front of his stupid ****ing face. End of story. Nope, not end of story.
Shortly after he turns again and puts his beer on our table and only NOW, after he already put his beer down, he says to me 'Do you mind if I put this here?...' and I immediately fire back a passive-aggressive 'I
GUESS sooo...'
Before he can even process my passive-aggressive reply he starts touching my arm and saying something like 'just want to make sure you don't mind...' and my disgusted brow gives him his answer and he realizes I am not a big fan of this and he grabs his beer and turns to group he is with and puts it on the bar where it ****ing belongs. We left soon after. Fin.
On a Dids(1.0)rage scale of 1-10 how GAUCHE was this?
On a side, one of my favorite parts of this story is now Howard has a visual of me too apply.
