I think it all comes down to what level of assholery your at that day. And it ranges from engaging in the dribble of conversation to insulting them in a horrible manner.

My favourites-in class:

No. 1: What's that? (as you're about to give the students a handout).

The answer I'd like to give: If you wait a second until I give it to you and look at it then, you'll find out.

No. 2: What are we doing today?
If you wait a second (like when class actually starts), I'll tell you.

Grrrrrrrrrr (a very mild one though). At least they're interested enough to ask as oppossed to being surly or aggressive and hurling expletives or chairs at me.

I feel as though I'm terrible at being human, I hate hate hate haaate small talk.

I'm so glad my BFF hasn't gotten knocked up again recently, when you're shopping for baby clothes and you're plus sized, and the person with you is actually pregnant but size 0...

Let's just say there's a lot of cashiers in the area who should've gone home with black eyes.

What a great post and for it to be your 100th just made it even better. Thought I'd quote it for ya.

To be fair, SG, your frustration was valid IMHO. I don't ask or plead with Minifob; it's pointless. Were I in the situation you describe, I would have lifted him up to the counter so the chart could be scanned without his removing his hands from it, or worst case scenario, simply pried it from his fingers and let him scream until it was handed back. The problem is, people are intolerant of the screaming, too.
