It's nice to know where I rate

I got hit on the grocery store yesterday.  Well, I didn't realize that offering to get something off the top shelf for me was some sort of pick-up attempt, but I guess it is.  I thanked the man and he said something about "striking out" and pointed to his finger.  I was all, "Wha?" until it slowly sank in that he was saying he was striking out with me because he saw my wedding ring.

Yeah dude, you struck out because I'm married and not because you look vaguely homeless.  I don't know what it is about me, but I am irresistible to older men who look like they've been living on the streets for a month or two.  Don't they know I'll only hook up with an older dude if he's got MORE money than me, not less?

  • I'm picturing Nick Nolte circa his mug shot as the man in this story.

  • I get hit on at the gas station usually by men with greasy hair and food stains on their shirts. That is, if they are wearing shirts.
  • Elderly russian men think I'm hot.  Oh, and cab drivers.  I'm not bragging or anything, but more than a few cab drivers have tried to woo me.

  • I haven't been hit on in so long that any one of these scenarios would have me giddy.

    I'm offended.  He looked more than a couple months homeless in that picture.  I'm appealing to men who look newly homeless.   I have standards, you know.  Sheesh.

  • I get hit on by younger classmates. Dude, when I said I liked that thing you said in your essay? That was about liking that thing you said in your essay, not about liking your pants. Also, you're closer in age to my kid than me, weirdo.

    Creepy old guys just ask to hold my baby. Yeah, no.

    Sometimes I wonder if scientists have never seen a sci-fi movie before. "Oh yes, let's create a super species of deer. NOTHING COULD POSSIBLY GO WRONG." I wonder if State Farm offers a Zombie Deer Attack policy. -CaliopeSpidrman
  • Lately I've been hit on on by 17 year old boys at the high school we work with.
