Well, Spawz, count yerself lucky... Every time to Martins Food Store with the P-Vine is cause for MCM but usally with the people in line or the poor check out girl... I know it's gonna happen so I just stay the heck outta the way and wait her out...

Ya' see, the check out line for the P-Vine is her saopbox... She fumes about the cost of sweet potatoes, the state of youth these days, Republicans, the way ya' kind find cotton nightgowns and just about any other thing that is buggin' her... And let one person acknowldge her be either agreein' or disagreein' and out comes a higher level of MCM... Then fir her grand finale' she always, like in 100% of the time, has to complain about the credit/debit card swiper... The MCM goes on from the time she gets in line until the check out girl musters up a couragous "Thank you, ma'am"...

Then the P-Vine fusses all the way to car about whatever she was fussin' about in the check out line, critiques veryone who was in the line with her, ctiticizes the way I pack the car... "Put ther frozen stuff in the bottom of the cooler"... Like I don't know that???

Then she gets into the car... I sneak in the driver's door, start the car and no matter when I put it in gear to leave get the usaul, "What's your hurry???" to which I do no respond but strat driving home... 5 minutes later she is back to being her sweet, loving, perky self and all is well until the next dreaded trip to Martin's Food Store...

Yeah, I know what yer thinkin', Sapwzer... "Well, try another food store, Boberdz"... First of all, suggestin' any food store but Martins is like lighting the MCM fuse 'cause, other than Costco, she won't go anywhere else... "Prices are too high and they sell old produce"... Like how would she know if she has never set foot in any of them??? But, secondly, I think she has such a long history of MCM episodes at Martin's I think she just feel comfy having her little meltdowns there...

See, this is why I really don't unnersatnd the womanz race... I mean, I can screw up all I want 'round the farm... I can go days without shavin'... I can play outta my geetar outta tune... I can fart, scratch, pick my nose and occasionally leave my underwear on the floor... You know, all the fun men stuff and she is just as nice and sweet as a womanz can be...

But Martin's Food Store???

How do you spell, MCM???
