I work at a Kitchen Supply store. I was ringing customers up at the register when an older gentleman came up to me holding a basting brush.
“Hi, how can I help you?” I said.
He waved the basting brush and said, ” I bet this would tickle your fancy, eh!”
I stood there kind of dumbfounded before mumbling something to the effect of, “Uh… yeah…”
Then the man walked away chuckling to himself creepily. It was only two seconds after he left that I realized I should have said, “Sir, I’d appreciate if you and that brush stayed as far away from my fancy as possible.” but alas, it was too late.
