$2


Today I witnessed a scene out of Better Off Dead except this time it involved adults. It was an argument over $2, but to listen to the guy DEMANDING his $2 from the cashier you would of thought it was over $2,000.

I pulled into the Shell Station off of Roe this afternoon to grab another 24oz Monster drink to help me combat the allergy medicine I am taking and noticed a line that wrapped around the counter. I grabbed my drink and started hearing yelling and screaming coming from the front. The first thing that came to my mind was that some idiot was complaining about gas prices and blaming the cashier for him having to pay $1.60 more than last week to fill up his tank, I was wrong.

As I got closer to the situation I noticed the man with a lottery ticket in his hand. Did he win big? No, he won a FREE TICKET but the moron thought he won an additional $2 on top of it. I asked the guy in front of me how long he had been waiting and he said almost 10 minutes. I couldn't believe that an argument over $2 could last over 2 minutes.

Just as it was about to get violent a cop walked in the door and the dude left. Hilarious.

ALL OVER $2!
