I usually hang around the house in a T-Shirt and boxers. I was taking out the trash on Sunday night in this getup, a T-shirt and boxers. It's a quick hit and not really necessary to make a wardrobe change.
It was pitch dark outside and I was doing my trash and recycling routine, because it's good for the environment. As I was turning around to walk back into my house via garage. An older man was walking by on the sidewalk and said "The Caveman Comes Out of His Cave" with this goofy look on his face.
I was startled since he basically came out of nowhere. I said "YOU SCARED THE SHIT OF OUT ME." He was still walking and still had the goofy look on his face. I then asked angrily "AND WHAT DID YOU MEAN BY CAVEMAN?" He said "Because you are wearing boxers." That was it.
So here are my takeaways:
1] Why are you looking at people's clothes in the dark?
2] Why would say something to someone while their back is turned in the dark?
3] Why would you say something like that to a neighbor you don't know while you are on their property?
4] How do know they won't react hostile to being called a "Caveman"
5] That is seriously some dumb shit.
And I realize some work people will view this as hypocritical because of a certain caveman, but whatever. This is different.
