so i'm on my way to work and i duck into a starbucks for a little boost. i'm waiting in line to place my order and to my left there's a couple of tables which house a scraggly bum at one, and a mom and her kid at the other. after a couple of minutes in line, the kid (of course) begins screaming and writhing in his chair like a rabid animal. mom begins repeating "shhh, aidan, shhh, shh,...aidan, shh!" (because we all know how well that works). not surprisingly, the animal continues to scream. i'm mentally considering if i have enough time to get to the starbucks up the road, when the bum looks over and says, 'shut the fuck up, aidan, just stop fuckin' crying'.
pretty sure i've never laughed so hard.

I hope my kid grows out of his happy yelling phase before you visit...lol...but thats awesome the bum made you cheerful in an otherwise stressful event.
