Rude

Joey had a sleepover party this weekend so the rest of us went to Home Depot and then grabbed a bite to eat. We went to Shake and Steak, which I assumed most people know is just a baby step away from McDonald's. You have to know going into a place with a drive through window that you aren't in for a gourmet meal. Apparently this eluded the family that was seated near us. The dad threw the bun to the side and grabbed his hunk of meat that he waved around as he loudly complained, "Is this really a double burger, or did you just cut one in half?" Then his wife started in with her loud exhalations of disgust aimed at her plate. "Can you bring me some fries?", she bellowed at the poor servers (who are a couple of sweet looking high schoolers). When the girls tried to ask what size order of fries she wanted, she grew even more huffy and told them to just forget it. Don't those girls know that if someone is too lazy to actually read a menu, that person will also be too lazy to decide what size fries to order? The dad sent his back and the mom spent the rest of the time giving dirty looks to everyone. Finally, they threw their tip down and headed off to the parking lot where mom could really lay into her kids and grab a big chunk of arm to shake. Why do some people think it's ok to be so very rude to others?

My philosophy is that people who act like that are just miserable, unhappy people and they spend their lives looking for someone to blame or take it out on. Ick.
