Hot newspaper guy: Hi! Do you want a free paper?
Krissy: Um, yeah! Woohooo! Free stuff!
Hot newspaper guy: Ha! Haha? How often do you read the paper?
Krissy: Whenever it's free.
Hot newspaper guy: Ummm...ok. That it?
Krissy: I run a hall--I don't have time for a newspaper.
Hot newspaper guy: (looks sad) ...
Hot newspaper guy: Running a hall sounds like fun!
Krissy: Ooh, it's SUPER-FUN!!! (gives thumbs up)
Krissy: (spots giant boxes of Corn Pops on sale) OoohOOOH! *scampers off to grab cold cereal*
It wasn't until I was well into the produce section that I realized he may have been trying to flirt with me and I scared him away with my thumbs up and Corn Pops enthusiasm.
Gaah.
