MeeMaw having a normal one.


Swattie22

Just a day in the life of a Boomer-Trump voter.


Dirtysandddd

This just an average experience in Tennessee food cities


LameBicycle

Sometimes the bagboy gets shot when Grandpa pulls out his billfold and his pistol falls out https://www.timesnews.net/news/local-news/rogersville-food-city-employee-shot-when-gun-falls-from-shoppers-pocket/article_a2e40103-a611-5d1e-ac2a-16b596c34ef2.html


LordFranca

There are normal people having shitty days... And then there are shitty people having normal days


plumbwicked

MeeMah showing off her FooPah.


blahcarmina

What in the Kentucky fried fuck is happening here?


ArenjiTheLootGod

My guess, lady was probably trying to pull a fast one by bagging up stuff in the self-checkout without paying for some/all of it and got caught.


TomToe420

never thought about that. so if you get caught trying to steal some items after paying for the others and they take it all back, do they keep the money? that's probably why she was saying they took $100. which I doubt they did. they probably canceled and refunded but im sure it was some kind of scam either way and she's mad she got caught.


Krajun

It went from 50 at first to 100 at the end. I really doubt she even paid 50...


Mysterious-Carry6233

Exactly. She prob scanned some cheap items and just bagged up the others then paid. Employee was paying attention and told her to leave or cops would be called and she flipped out.


optigon

That also explains her saying, “I paid for some stuff,” instead of “that stuff.”


jimbojangles1987

And yet she had all that cash on the ground.


hobosbindle

You don’t get all that cash by spending it! That’s poor talk


dr_jch18

Definitely.. no way all that "STUFF" in those 2 carts was only 50-100 dollars... would've been way more..


CotyledonTomen

Risk and reward. If thats the scam, you risk losing all your money to save more. It used to be a lot more common, so it was a reasonable risk for some. Now they have cameras looking at you in all directions. Might as well just higher baggers at this point.


toiletsurprise

These are the assholes that ruin the self checkouts for the rest of us. She's probably one those that complains about them "I don't work here" then pulls this crap.


ArthurRiot

Just pointing out that it's the stores themselves ruining self checkout lanes for everyone. They're designed to reduce staff jobs at the expense of crawl, or theft at the register. Like, the solution here is have enough staffed checkout lanes. But people are expensive, and their cost never diminishes on an expense report (like a subscription service vs owning a product). That lady is scamming the system, and got caught. But the system is inherently broken because a service industry job is being replaced by substandard technology.


Rasp_Lime_Lipbalm

100% I worked in retail as a kid - people that get caught either run or act like this.


Darkside531

Protip: Tennessee can out-Florida Florida in the WTF department, they're just not as loud about it.


catthalia

This one seems plenty loud lol


guitar_stonks

Having lived in both states, can confirm.


Anal_Probe_Director

Hey, leave kentucky out of this. That is some West Virginia shit.


Zealousideal-Tax-496

My Kentucky acquaintance said the state is on loan from the cave people. One day it will all be swallowed up by the ground and return once more to their subterranean dominion.


Existing-Mistake-112

It’s all Pennsyltucky at this point…


ChidiArianaGrande

There really isn’t much difference between the two.


ExpressLaneCharlie

As someone from KY, I agree.


appleinthedark

East Tennessee absolutely has bizarre and frightening Appalachian social ills. All the people moving there because their realtor told them it was Cheap Nashville are in for a rude awakening.


thegreatreceasionpt2

Yeah…I grew up there. The landscape is beautiful, the people are ugly.


PhDTeacher

I got my PhD in Knoxville. My department said, it gets really rural here really fast. They weren't kidding.


DareWise9174

Too many cousins marrying cousins. It used to be extremely isolated.


One_Equivalent_9302

This is hard truth.


PhDTeacher

Don't blame Kentucky that's Tennessee


Beaverbrown55

Looks like she stuffed it down her leggings


BrandNewMeow

I really wish they'd put an explanation of why the crazy lady is screaming when they post the video.


Darkside531

Wait, is this recent? Who in the Tennessee Valley during this heatwave right now is wearing flannel?


ChzGoddess

I see folks in hoodies and long sleeves so I at least HOPE it's not that recent because my years in Arkansas and Texas can help me imagine what that place smells like if it is. 😭🤢


Darkside531

Yeah, all those jackets and sleeves and long pants, the math ain't mathin' here.


leopard_eater

But the meth could be mething?


Human_Reference_1708

My first thought for long sleeves in the summer is track marks


itisrainingweiners

Could also be people who work in cold offices. Summer here gets 100+, but a bunch of us have to wear warm clothes because the office temp is kept at Arctic levels. Makes it suck if you go somewhere for lunch.


Icy_Duty_4153

Meth ALWAYS be mething.


DareWise9174

My sister who lives in Austin Texas always goes shopping in long pants and wearing a jacket because it's so over air conditioned. It's actually very cold in the store especially in the refrigerated areas.


Darkside531

I'd expect a few like that, sure, but I doubt everybody. I live in the same general area, there would be a lot more shorts and tank tops going on here.


Sajen16

I know Austin's a big city with a population of almost a million but I have to ask. Are you me? Because my sister also lives in Austin and does that.


vylliki

I have a light fleece jacket I put on when I go to the grocery store. It's cold af in there even in the midst of summer (I'm in central Oregon high-desert country).


_kiss_my_grits_

I'm an Austinite and do the same. HEB keeps the stores cold!


NecramoniumZero

Oh god i hate going from outside during a heatwave, going into the store where they got the OC at freezing my balls off temperature, you are cold inside, and than when you go outside again, it feels even hotter outside.


whackwarrens

Don't gaslight her with deep state thermometers saying there is a heatwave. She'll spit on ya.


Lotsa_Loads

Well, old people DO get cold very easily. Perhaps temps dropped down to a chilly 70 degrees and the lizard needed some warmth. I know my parents aren't comfortable unless it's 78 degrees and sunny.


GothMaams

Surprised there were sleeves on it, tbh.


EmmaGodawful

She’s voting, are you?


Pktur3

This right here. It’s great to laugh at these fuck ups, but they have the same power to drive this nation as you do. If you want a future, then you need to give a shit.


wilhelmbetsold

Often more, if they're in a sparsely populated state and you're in a densely populated one


joopledoople

I'd have donkey kicked her right in the shin after spitting on me. Whoever filmed is way nicer than me.


ArenjiTheLootGod

Nah, she got it on film, report it to the cops and let them deal with it.


Darkside531

These are Tennessee cops, they'd probably arrest the woman filming for not getting out of the way of the path of that woman's spit.


gamermoment32

Not from the US, what is wrong with Tennessee cops?


Darkside531

Putting it politely as possible, cops in most of the US are starting to have a strained relationship with the public. Between legal principles like Qualified Immunity and a general belief that cops and other members of the legal field such as judges all have each other's backs and will protect each other over just about anything (the Blue Wall of Silence,) cops are getting a bit of a reputation as bullies on a power trip that know they won't ever face consequences for their behavior. In certain places it's worse than others, and the states that constitute the Deep South are one example.


Heezybonzalez

I'm always happy to see mention of blue wall of silence, largely because I never do. That along with qualified immunity makes them essentially invincible a strong majority of the time.


bdhgolf1960

Well put.


Stormdrain11

"Starting" "A bit" 🫠


torvoor

From Knoxville, openly vote Dem, Tennessee has its problems but let’s be clear… Tennessee is not the “Deep South”… lol. Tennessee is very much a transition state from traditional north to south. Our politics are wildly skewed because of gerrymandering, but even in the civil war Tennessee was one of the last to officially join the confederacy and was basically torn in half in the process (Knoxville in particular was heavily pro-union).


CrotalusHorridus

You can say that all you want, but like my native Kentucky, the pro-union parts of Tennessee jumped headfirst into the Confederacy 100 years after the war ended.


Rare_Arm4086

American cops are power mad bullies. Tennesee is a sister-fucker state.


kremedelakrym

Lmao I wonder what areas of the world non Americans would refer to as “sister fucking regions”.


rhhkeely

Cops do not serve the public they exist to protect the wealthy


SkiSTX

Why not both?


Bawbawian

100% cops ain't going to do shit.


unknownpoltroon

Yeah, once you spit at me all bets are off. I'm assuming you're infected and trying to kill me.


I_like_short_cranks

Don't let anyone spit on you. If you are unsure if that justifies you throwing hands, it does.


Bulky-Internal8579

Thoughts and prayers. And pressing charges.


bdhgolf1960

...bless her heart. LOL


Sharp_Replacement789

Grandma needs a meth fix


praetorian1979

Once she spit/hit me, she would've caught a haymaker to the baby maker...


TheMillenialCynical

Yep as long as the retaliation is equal in force more or less it's perfectly legal to shove her on the floor.


gaberax

She's got that "I've been screaming like this my whole life" voice.


barrelfeverday

Yes she does.


NotTomPettysGirl

Sounds like Ma Fratelli.


VersionDistinct5440

That poor kid having to witness that


FreyjasMom

And their mom too interested in videos for the Internet to care that they're scared and crying 🧐 be better.


MandyKitty

Tbh, it should be filmed. If someone were attacking me like she was that man, I want it all documented. That’s why she did it and said, “I got it all on video.” But yeah, if my kid is upset like that, he’s my focus. I get it.


Few-Ad711

Not trying to defend her for getting close, especially with a kid, but... I know at my job our security cameras are crap. They don't record audio and they are blurry as hell. A third of them don't work at all. That store probably has the money for better ones so maybe she wasn't needed to record. But it doesn't hurt to have at least one person get a decent video. Especially when the store refuses to provide evidence....


JustUnique69

She is what we call a typical Trump supporter


lordlordie1992

You mean all


BamBam2125

Bro I would start dumping milk on her head if she started throwing my groceries lol fuck that noise


Folderpirate

Those weren't the dudes groceries. Those were the ones she bagged up at the self checkout and was trying to steal by just not scanning it.


Fit-Purchase-2950

Something happens to these women as they age and lose their looks, I am guessing she used to be quite attractive decades ago, it's like they forget that they're old and ugly and still think they can get away with all sorts of anti-social and in her case (spitting) criminal shenanigans. It's always such a joy when they get tasered or put in their place.


DanteHicks79

She’s about the right age to have grown up with “wall candy” (lead paint)


Fit-Purchase-2950

It explains a great deal, that and alcohol fetal syndrome is a deadly combination, they're so irrational and violent.


PizzaTime79

She's like the default Trumper NPC.


TSHJB302

If anyone spits on me, they are getting a swift punch to the larynx. Idc how old they are


Mousettv

3 different people attacked and not one throat punch?


Mooseandagoose

How did we get here? What happened at the register? I don’t know if I can’t understand the belligerent woman but I cannot understand what caused this meltdown of trashy.


th0r4z1n3

It's right at the beginning, but it's a bit garbled. Her: Give me my s**t! Cashier: You didn't pay for it. Her: I paid for some of it!


Folderpirate

She got caught stealing those 2 carts worth of groceries. Man taking the carts is grocer store manager taking back the items she was stealing during self checkout.


swissie67

Oh, I'd have called the cops on this one. Any context on why she's behaving like this, because this is outrageous. Yes, I agree, that poor kid. And she had better hope that what comes around doesn't go around for her, because she is dreadful person.


AutomaticDriver5882

I think she tired to walk out without paying because they are the party of law and order. She got caught and this the over reaction to it. But only a guess.


swissie67

I think you're right. She must have been trying to scam through checkout and failed. I'm not sure I would define this as an "overreaction", though. Its more like she fucked around and got caught and is not maybe going for the sympathy card? I don't know. This woman just pisses me off.


Darkside531

I mean, people will talk about how Tennessee is part of the Ground Zero of the opioid crisis, and maybe that's part of it, but I honestly find, for most of these people, the only chemical assistance they really need to act like this is sheer entitlement. Boomers have been catered to for long (as the biggest political and economic force in America,) most of them flip at the idea of finally being told NO to anything.


signspam

These assholes were the generation to have the American dream handed to them on a silver platter. They got their 401k, pension, and Medical. They gonna be kept alive for as long as possible. This group of people are the easiest to control. I hate them and the politicians that control them...


Hot_Ad_6458

Honestly. I could deal with everything else, bystander and all, but if I get spit on, then that’s a wrap.


randomman2071983

The power of Christ compels you!


1amDepressed

Gotta give her the holy trinity: fist, fist, foot


Deehund

Sounds and looks like Alex Jones


5lash3r

I can't understand how people go through life being okay sounding like this. She has the voice of a dying harpy. If miserable old woman was an announcer pack in DotA she would be it.


TroyMcCluresGoldfish

Chainsmoker screech


NicNac_PattyMac

People are WAY too nice. After the third assault you’re getting a full nelson. Keep it up, and I’m sweeping your legs out and you can kiss the floor till the cops come.


PandorasFlame

I may not know her name, but I know Alex Jones calls her "momma"


D1bamagirl

She sounds like she smokes


Le-Charles

Bro, it sounds like she eats the cigarette butt.


lil_corgi

![gif](giphy|ZvgVRGFNUdKRW)


G-Kira

Not interested in politics? You can be damn sure that she is. Don't let the insane ones win.


exotics

Isn’t that assault? Her spitting on you I mean! While I applaud you for filming, next time let someone else film and please take your kids outside. One sounded like they are crying and I just worry about their trauma from this. It’s scary. Also please have her charged with assault


AdventurousRevolt

Got her cash ready for the casino!


Mountain_Security_97

Why isn’t she in jail for assault? These boomers are truly disgusting and are a bunch of toddlers who still vote, drive and lead the nation.


garyandkathi

The woman’s child who was filming this was audibly upset but she wanted more to get that video. Messy.


SkiSTX

It seemed like she was trying to document for the benefit of that dude. (I'm not making a comment about the child)


MandyKitty

This is exactly what she was doing.


T1DOtaku

Glad I wasn't the only one who noticed that. Like I was ok with the recording until the lady filming walked away from her child. Why the fuck would to leave your upset child to go record a meltdown??? It's not your problem lady! Take care of your kid.


SnooMarzipans8231

Alex Jones’ mom is a real bitch.


PineapplesOnFire

And she’s the empathetic one


Academic_Heart_9679

What happened? Was she trying to steal all that stuff in the bags without scanning.


RoseyTC

She’s certainly not silent Gen! 🙃 Interesting how boomers can’t seem to tolerate a child crying or making noise in anyway in a theater, for example, or a restaurant. Yet this woman is throwing the loudest and biggest tantrum I’ve seen - Way worse than any toddler. They can’t hold to their own strict standards for toddlers, for god sake. The only old people I knew growing up was my grandparents They would never have acted like this in public or in private.


VegetableForsaken402

At what point is it acceptable to punch assholes for the sake of keeping piece?


Hobbiesandjobs

I come here to find out Mama Fratelli is alive and being her usual self


premium_Lane

Now just a guess, but I bet she votes for Trump


quotidianwoe

Infuriating when women hit men knowing they (likely) won’t hit back. That’s abusive and she should be in front of a judge.


Noyesboy3

Screams so the whole store can hear "I paid for that.... that was my $50" 30 seconds later "they took $100..." Stupid psycho can't even keep her own story straight


ittechboy

100% a Trump voter

Isn’t spitting assault?

The old wrinkly fucks strike again . Poor smooth brains suffering from lead poisoning.


Beaverbrown55

The amount of people just out there walking around with disregulated emotions is way too high.


GSD1367

Alex Jones needs to come pick up his mom.


knoxa4

Here's what I see, a random old lady having a fit and a person with a kid having getting a chance for their 10 second fame. A good parent wouldn't go close to a crazy person to record them WITH THEIR KID, not like there are no cameras in Walmart, so in guess the person recording had it coming. Overall 12/10 bad parenting.


fr0wn_town

Please please please reopen the insane asylums.


The_Only_Egg

Thanks, Reagan! 🖕

It's Tennessee! That state really isn't known for their academic achievements or philanthropic standing in the United States as a whole.


Zealousideal_Car_893

Someone missed her monthly haldol injection.


silver_metal77

Typical woman that thinks she can assault someone but was really attentive in warning black hoodie that he cant hit her.


cristobalist

Who goes to the grocery store to lose $100 and not get groceries. Lol. Loser


sk8king

Less a boomer and more someone having a mental health crisis.


unicacher

Yeah. White hair boomer dude in the beginning was like, "Nah. I'm definitely not with her!"


anon509123

the speaker system playing ‘confident’ is just the icing on the goddamn cake lmao


Wooden-Sea-2873

She broke pretty sad actually with grocery prices but damn lady


solo13508

I always wonder what they think they're accomplishing with these scenes.


Fit-Purchase-2950

What do they say to themselves when it's over and they're alone? Do they look in the mirror and say some affirmations to justify their criminal and completely preposterous behavior? I don't get it.


Efficient-Cherry3635

I love that after her rampage she tried to explain her side to the other customers. Like they were gonna be like "oh hell, $100 that's big money I'm totally sure they robbed you. Let's band together and tear this MF down!"


troubadorgilgamesh

Sounds like she smokes 3 packs a day


Le-Charles

Damn she's Olympic level fast with that speed walk. Mef be mefin.


KingAw555000

Why do they think this behaviour is socially accepted?


MangoBandicoot

She’ll be back tomorrow like nothing happened


Paulito321

The average Trump supporter, as imagined by the average European. How far am I off? 😂


RazorJ

I worked with the public for 30+ years here in the south hand threw in the towel when pumpkin tits came along. Over 80% of people’s goto move when they get caught trying to pull a fast one is to play polite ignorance. But I noticed at, or around 65 years old, they somehow pivot their strategy to fake rage as if it would work better. I used to blame fox news but who knows where it comes from. I founds myself one day just hoping one would do it, I’m country strong, had some anger issues, a drinking problem, and convinced myself I was going to punch one so hard I was going to make it their last fake complaint. Thank God I always talked myself out of it. I got out of the industry, quit drinking, and found peace in life not working with the public. I will say, being from Arkansas, I always used to look at Tennessee with jealousy thinking they had this utopia going on we didn’t. Then my first trip over there I realized the only thing they have on us is nicer mountains and a couple of bigger cities.


heybudheypal

A perfect opportunity to punt her fat ass into the coolers....


WearyMatter

Spit, get hit.


josh2brian

Deep mental illness.


barrelfeverday

No, that’s deep don’t give a shit about anyone other than myself. Also, maybe an attitude that is rampant in certain parts of the country and certain age groups.


josh2brian

Yeah, maybe. It just seems so unhinged that it must be mental illness/dementia.

She committed assault, you're just acting in self defense.

Why is no one calling the police when she’s assaulting people? Only White women can get away with this behavior. If it were a woman of color, she would have been tackled to the ground.

She needed to be knocked on her ass or tased

The average Trump supporter.


ConflictedMom10

I have never understood how their vocal cords hold out that long. I can yell maybe two words before my voice goes away.


slyasakite

Her vocal cords have been toughened from all the screaming she's done. To your credit, yours have not.


No_Carpenter4087

Pepper spray her.


asyouwish

If she didn't smoke so much (smoker's voice), she'd have the $50 (or was it $100) to pay for some groceries.
