today i witnessed the most "exciting" thing i've probably seen in ages.

an elderly couple, the guy mostly balding and the woman sporting heavy heavy jewellery were having their seemingly nice walk around the store when this gutsy teen comes barging past. and then the little woman who was probably as small as mini-me dropped her bottle of pesto. and then the most surprising thing happened. this pleasant old little woman, SWORE. she swore! and i was so damn shocked that i nearly fell flat on my face (but i couldn't because i probably would have crushed the poor 2 year old brat who was in front of my and who was crying for some yakult or something)

"****!!!!" was exactly what came out of her pruney old mouth. and i'm like, "OMG. WHAT?!" seriously. the conversation follows:

old man: what happened

old lady: that idiot, swooped past and now look! the pesto!

old man: where is he? let me whoop his brains out.

old lady: idiot. seriously, idiot.

old man: idiot indeed.

old lady: ****! now need to pay right? and it's not my fault.

old man: then don't pay.

old lady: but they'll ask what!

old man: yah. so?

old lady: you're useless you know.

seriously, this generation is constantly bagged at for having potty mouths. but i never expected lil' old grandparents to be this potty-mouthed. ahah, but it was entertaining, i must say. (:
