grocery store, ma'am

i bought groceries for work today. the cart was piled so high i could barely see over it. i find great satisfaction in my packing a grocery cart skills. on the way out of the store, it was 3 carts. i'm amazing.

the moral of the story: when you're 25 years old and a 16/17/18 year old guy helping you with your groceries tells you "you have a lot of groceries, ma'am," he laughs when you respond with "no shit, kid." still stings that he called me ma'am, though.

I get ma'am all the time. Maybe it's new slang meaning young and totally hot.

Ma'am is code for "Hey baby, hey baby, hey baby."

At least that's my interpretation now that I have crow's feet.
