I do not rent movies very often, but tonight I decided to see what I might find.

When I was paying the cashier asked me if I would like popcorn or candy with my movie. Without thinking, I jokingly asked, "What!? Are you trying to poison me?" Deer in the headlights. Then I assured her I was only joking. She gave me a courteous half-nod.

Then she went on about some savings plan if I bought some membership card, etc. Again without thinking I said I don't rent enough movies to make it worth the money, and besides all the crap coming out of Hollywood these days is either propaganda or just a reflection of the sick collective unconscious mind.

At that point she frowned and wouldn't make eye contact any longer. I realized that she possibly felt insulted.

Have you noticed that when you don't sugarcoat and tell people how it really is, they respond as if you are attacking their very identity? Which for the most part you are...
