#weirdcompliments

On today’s episode of #adventuresofcassiquinn, we’re going to share the story of how I was awkwardly approached in the less than five minutes I spent in Dunkin’ Donuts. 

So, I woke up slightly early (for me…it was 1 in the afternoon), to get the bags of sheets and plastic wrap from the bed my Puddin’ (the most amazing man I have ever met) helped me put together after helping me take my other one apart over the weekend…I decided to do an On-the-go order at my Dunkin’ Donuts because it is a pretty popular one and always has a long line.  Who doesn’t want to run on Dunkin’? Order is in, I’m a sweaty, probably smelly mess from moving the heavy bags and cardboard (down stairs at that)…in track pants and an oversized t-shirt. I run in, grab my just finished order, turn around to grab a straw, and I hear:

“Excuse me, can I ask you a question?”

Me: “Um, sure.” I only said yes because I live in a pretty high touristy area and people need directions a lot of the time…

“Is your butt fake?”

Me: “Um, excuse me?” 

"Your butt, is it fake?”

😒 “Nope. My butt is all natural.”

"Do you do anything to make it look like that?” 

"Not sure what you mean…looks like a normal butt to me. I’m pretty active, but no, I don’t do anything specific to make my butt look like this. Enjoy your Donuts and coffee.”

And, I left…as I was getting into my car, same person walks by and yells “It’s a great butt by the way.  Hope you weren’t offended.”  I just give a half hearted wave and smile.  People are weird. 

I am very awkward when  it comes to compliments, but what has happened in the world that people can’t just give a compliment?  Lately there is always something that goes along with it…

You know Sally from the Nightmare Before Christmas? Your legs look just like hers.

(sun hits my eye) Random Girl: Do you wear colored contacts?

Me: no

RG whispers: creepy
