Overheard at Walmart Today From a Guy Clearly in His 80's

"I'm a bringing these here pants back because they're a way too tight in the crotch."

One comment:

I could have gone all day without hearing that.

A few questions:

Why, when one hears something like that, does one feel a compelling need to turn one's head and look at the person delivering such a comment? Why can't we just leave it alone? Why do we need a visual to go along with the audio? Are we better off after we get the visual? Why the head turn then? Do we think we're going to somehow feel magically unsickened if we get the visual? What do we do with the visual once we get it? How can I make it stop?
If I have to have the visual, then so do you.
Oh yeah. Happy May Day.
