In the grocery check out line and notice the guy behind me has two items. I feel terrible that he shows up after my giant amount of junk is filling the entire conveyor belt. I can tell right away he's one of my kind of guys. No mask. Just has the look of a guy who thinks all this stuff is nonsense.
I make eye contact and apologize to him for all my items and tell him I wish he'd been a few minutes sooner, so I could've let him go before me. He's totally cool and says it's no big deal and he's just going to drink a sweet tea and off himself when he's done waiting on me getting finished.
I'm taken aback, at first, thinking he's joking but always recall my training on suicide that any joke of suicide is always to be taken seriously so I say to him that I'll give him my number and he can call me right away and we'll talk as I don't want him to kill himself. He starts laughing and tells me he made a bad joke. I look down at his two items and notice one of them is a can of OFF bug spray. The other is sweet tea...so, he was referring to his drink and his bug spray not his imminent suicide. 😂 He then feels bad and says he shouldn't have joked like that. My kinda guy. I mean, if I was one of the crazies, I could've just told him that since he wasn't masked up he was going to die anyway, so he may as well off himself but I'm not.
