I’m thinking it was probably a nicotine junkie. Four dollars is about right for a pack of smokes these days, isn’t it?

I once beat a man bloody over messing with my macaroni & cheese. The third time he put his hand in my food, I took care of business.

Yikes, I have been insulted and ignored on my birthday, but never shot. That party didn’t end well.
