Staring Contest

Have you ever had one of those weird experiences with people in public that are just way too interested in what you are doing?

I went out the other night with a pretty wonderful person. We were having a lot of fun, so needless to say, we were laughing at something as we walked into a diner.

The booths went something like this:

As you can see, I am clearly the purple dot that can see everything going on behind us. And yes, obviously you can see the red X marked there showing the creepy lady staring at us.

This caught my attention, so I learned over...

Me: Ummm, there is someone watching us...
Boy: Where?
Me: Diagonal - right behind you!
Boy: Okay, this is how I normally handle these things: I just stare back.
Me: Okay, lets do it!
Boy: Naturally you would be okay with this. On the count of three, we will turn and stare at her for seven seconds...3...2...1

And we stared. For seven seconds.

We definitely creeped her out. She deserved every one of those seven seconds of torture.

Most people wouldn't continue staring, but I saw her glance over a few more times until her group left.

I think it's because we are so darn cute.
