Tony Carr wanted to pay for his burger. Instead, police say, he ended up smooshing the microwaved patty in a store clerk's face. Police have issued an arrest warrant for Carr, 37, of Berwick, Maine. He's charged with simple assault and criminal mischief, both misdemeanors.
Investigators say Carr got angry on Nov. 28 when the clerk at a Cumberland Farms would not allow him to pay for a hamburger while it was heating in the store microwave. Police said the clerk, Scott Litzenberger, told Carr he had to bring the burger to the counter 15 feet away to pay for it.
After a sharp exchange of words, the man walked back to the microwave, removed the steaming burger and walked back to Litzenberger.
The two apparently exchanged a few brief words again, when the customer, "just lost it," according to another clerk. Instead of paying for it, Carr shoved it into the clerk's face, burning his face and eye, police Sgt. Anthony Triano said.
"That time of night, you tend to get people who are belligerent. They want things they can't have and we just try and do our job," said Bill Rollo, another clerk at the store.
Rollo said when he showed up to relieve Litzenberger, "he had a burned eye and eyeball. It was all red."
Rollo had gone on vacation later that week and was due back at the store Thursday.
"I'm sure he's fine now. I know he got it taken care of that night," Rollo said.
He got his panties in a bunch, and now is in a real pickle.
I sure hope the victim will ketchup to him.
When burgers are outlawed, only outlaws will have burgers....
Ssssh, don't mention pickles around mad puppy (see post#11).
Relish the moment. :)
okay, okay, I'll stop with the bad puns.
Especially THESE buns...
Still Thinking: I'd like a sausage biscuit please.
McDonalds Cashier: We don't have any left.
ST: What's that over there?
McD: A sausage biscuit with egg.
ST: Well? (eyebrows raised)
McD: Well what?
ST: Make it into a sausage biscuit and sell it to me.
McD: What do you mean?
ST: Bring it here.
McD: (brings it)
ST: Take the top biscuit off.
McD: (takes it off)
ST: Take the egg off.
McD: (takes it off)
ST: Put the biscuit back on.
McD: (puts it back)
ST: What't that in your hand?
McD: A sausage biscuit.
ST: Now sell it to me.
McD: OK
Too bad she didn't then say, "How am I gonna hold the egg?" You could have used Jack Nicholson's line, "Between your knees."
:)I know, sometimes you have to pull a Dick and Jane with these people.
Clerk probably needed to scan bar code from wrapper.
Reminds me of the episode of COPS when a couple in matching tie dye shirts called the cops because he threw a Whopper at the girlfriend. LOL!!
Good suggestion, but this one probably couldn't pronounce "egg".
I remember being in line at a discount store where I bought an item that was priced at two for $1. The clerk had to lock the register, and go ask the manager how much she should charge me for just one. No kidding...
I know. They're passing laws at such a rate that just about everything is illegal EXCEPT stupidity. I can't imagine how they could have missed that one. Self preservation, I guess.
Did you see that thread about the new giant burger at HArdees?
Thank god it wasn't, you could put someones eye out with one of those things!
Clearly you are one of great patience, how did you keep from laughing? Was it because you were in a state of stunned silence?
He never said he didn't laugh. With someone like that, probably no harm in doing so because they probably didn't have a clue [what he was laughing at].
True and very true.
