Big Bad Wolf, Redux

Scene at local Trader Joe's (a grocery store):

Checkout Lady(to 5 year oldish girl): SO, what are we dressing up as for Halloween, are you going to be an angel?
Girl: I am going to be a wolf!
Lady (taken aback): Oh! Isn't that going to be scary?
Girl (with a look that conveyed the message Lady are you just plain stupid, it's Halloween): I want to scare all the squirrels and all the dogs and all the children.
Lady: *speechless*

Tinbergen et. al. (but no Thaler?)

A visit (incognito of course) to the old haunt of ours, a week or so back! (conversation paraphrased)

N: Good grief, this place is no longer the center of intellectual conversations that it used to be!
A(some random chick): When has this ever been intellectual? only pervs and losers come here!
N: (suppressing the need to respond "which are you") No No, there was a time that I would have the pleasure to sit and converse with Tennyson, Camus, Fibonacci, Tinbergen and so many more! THIS was the intellectual gathering spot! (*knowing fully well person A has never heard of Tennyson let alone the others!)
A: *wacko*

random person Nina hawking a sex chat website

N: Hey Nina, are you a person of high Intellectual Quotient?
A: That is very rude question to ask!
N: That was a simple ask, not rude - you've never met Rude, Rude would tear you apart in 10 seconds!
A: N ignored!

😂😂

P.S: I don't think I've ever seen this shared space of ours look so dazzlingly sexy - what a kickass redesign!
