had the strangest interaction ive ever had in my life at a gas station the other night. standing in line to buy water and the old man in front of me finishes checking out, turns around to me and goes, “hey, what are you doin, man?” and i reply, hesitantly, “buying water?” to which this old man says one of the craziest things anyone has ever said to me: “you don’t even know what you look like, do you?”

i am taken aback. i blink at him. “what do i look like?” i ask. my curiosity outweighs my concern.

“what do you think you look like?” he retaliates. i shrug and say, “well i’ve been told i look like kurt cobain which is weird, and cole sprouse.”

he thoughtfully nods before asking me, “you wanna know what you look like?”

im not sure i do, but i say, “sure, i guess.”

no hesitation, this man looks me in the eyes and says, “a lover from another mother.”

i do not know what that means. i did not know how to respond. all i could say was, “is that a compliment??” but all i got back was “i LIKE it!” before he walked out the door.

anyway i cannot make sense of this interaction in the slightest.

i am a bob’s burgers the movie fan first and a person second
