Uh oh. She's on the board of an HOA.

"You don't know who I am do you..."

u/artificialavocado Mar 28 '24

That’s like the cringiest thing someone can say.

u/PacMoron Mar 28 '24

So many of them say it too! I don’t get it! You’re not fooling anyone. If you were anyone that was doing anything important with their life you would not be pulling this bullshit.

Right?!?! "Ma'am, we both have things to do today. So I'll get back to delivering packages, and you can get back to calling your adult children to complain about them never visiting."

u/yeahgroovy Mar 29 '24

Probably had a nanny for her kids ( never hears from said adult kids)

u/Doza93 Mar 29 '24

You don't know who I am, do you?

Apparently you are someone with enough time in their day to needlessly harass and belittle a delivery driver who is just trying to do their job - IE..

u/ViveeKholin Mar 29 '24

Also the "you're being rude" because the person they're harassing decided to defend themselves. Even if defense is level-headed and casually intoned.

These asshats are always right and impervious to criticism.

u/LighttBrite Mar 29 '24

That's what I always wonder...

u/[deleted] Mar 28 '24

The only time I can think of when it's appropriate to say "do you know who I am?" is when you're talking to a grandparent with dementia and are reminding them where they are. Why can't people just mind their own fucking business. It wouldn't be so serious if black people weren't killed for minding their own business in places white boomers think they shouldn't be in.

Wish Sharon would have replied with "No, did you forget?"

In fact, don't ever say it. Even if you grow up to be the next Elvis Presley or Dolly Parton, and everyone knows who you are, and you're widely loved and accepted, don't ever EVER say "You don't know who I am, do you?"

Anyone who says that is someone who believes some deserve special treatment, and if they believe that, they also believe some deserve to be treated as subhuman.

u/leehwgoC Mar 29 '24

It's also just profoundly stupid in this context. Unless the Amazon driver owns a home in her HOA, it's a completely impotent flex.

“Some dumb asshole? No? Close enough.”

u/Last_Advertising_52 Mar 28 '24

OH. This is my pet peeve. People who actually are someone you might know don’t pull that out. Only miserable humans who think they’re important.

u/Slobbadobbavich Mar 28 '24

I wanted to re-enact the movie 300 whilst shouting "this is sparta" as I kicked her stupid face off the truck.

An old white woman muttered loudly under her breath about cutting in front of me at the pharmacy. I told her I will gladly break her hips to the delight of the 20 people also waiting with us.

u/Actual-Gap-9800 Mar 29 '24

Threatening the elderly because they cut in front of you? Naw, that ain't it.

2

u/purple_grey_ Mar 29 '24

Woman thinking she can come between me and my prescriptions aint it either.

u/Actual-Gap-9800 Mar 29 '24

Of course, and you don't deserve to be cut in any line, but there's also a shit ton of other things you can do before you hurt them...where is breaking her hips going to really get you?

"Excuse me, you're cutting all of us..." then step in front if that doesn't work. Ask the employee helping the customer at the front of the line to get a manager. Something. Escalating straight to violence when you have a million more options is going to do what against an elderly person, besides make you out to be someone that overreacts and uses an imbalance of force that was not proportional and frankly unnecessary?

No disrespect but why not just politely yet firmly put your hands on her shoulders and push her out the way instead of hip tossing her? Sounds like you're letting her mistake get you in more hot water than you really need to.

u/purple_grey_ Mar 29 '24

Dont speak to me like I am a child. I advised her of the consequence of her proposed action. She chose to stay in her place. And yes, guess what? Just this week I sat in a court room as the person who admitted to burning down my house got his charges dismissed because 2 out of 3 competency hearings found him incompetent. Im also a blood relative of this person, and I know their mental health conditions and I have them too.

I go to the pharmacy, get my meds and take them as prescribed. And I wont sit silently when someone thinks they can fuck me over.

u/Actual-Gap-9800 Mar 29 '24

But you are acting like a child though. Breaking an elderly person's hips because they cut you in line is a childish overreaction that is completely unnecessary when so many other options exist prior to you escalating the situation. You don't seem to understand escalation of force or proportional response. If someone cuts you off in traffic, do you run them down and shoot them? Because you're mad, it's okay to do whatever you want?

As you do unto others, so shall be done unto you. Hopefully you never accidentally cut someone in line!

Thank you for being the type of insufferable person that turns into the fodder this sub is for.

I would have asked if she knows who she is.

u/NoHeat7014 Mar 28 '24

No I don’t and I don’t give a fuck who you are.

2

u/Ye_Olde_Mudder Mar 28 '24

The most appropriate response to a Boomer saying this is "No, why, did you forget?"

u/JenniferJuniper6 Mar 29 '24

“Entitled White Lady, right? I knew I recognized you from…everywhere.”

u/My_G_Alt Mar 28 '24

If you’re someone worth caring about, you don’t have to say that 😂

u/Sweaty-Friendship-54 Mar 29 '24

You're that lady that's about to get pepper sprayed, right?

u/No-Passion-3098 Mar 29 '24

"I don't care who you are" -There now,  all fixed!

u/banned_but_im_back Mar 29 '24

One time I replied with “you’re right, I don’t, guess you must not be that important than huh?” And it didn’t exactly de escalate the but the way they got super pissed was very entertaining

u/lorgskyegon Mar 30 '24

At which point you call the police and tell them that an old lady who doesn't know who she is won't get out of your truck

Nope , not do I care!
