Yesterday, at prom, I was caught off guard by an employee working at the Seattle EMP. I approached the coat-check stand and took off my vest and gave it to him. I was there for around twenty seconds(not actually removing the jacket but next to another couple waiting my turn) and he said "alright, cupcake, let's keep it moving, have a good night". I was confused and all I could do was put on the most awkward smile I've ever made and said "Ya, you too!", cheerfully. While walking away I heard him laughing with his buddies as I walked away. My date witnessed this and I felt like loving decking him or at least telling him not to call me that, he was shorter than me and I am definitely strong enough but my heart started racing and I couldn't loving man up.
How do all of you deal with random hostilities?
