A few days ago, a friend of mine was relating to me about a someone, in her own perception, who committed an act of rudeness toward her. This is an excerpt and I paraphrase her words to me, somewhat edited for language:
“I walk outside to to get a quick smoke. I usually go into the corner of the building away from everyone who might be bothered by it because you can’t smoke anywhere now.”
“Here I am freezing my butt off, minding my own business. There was this guy who kept staring at me. I try to ignore him, but he kept doing it."
