1. Has she been like that all her life? Has this style worked for her in the past?

2. She is a sweet grandmotherly type, isn't she?

Bless her heart!

3. Kudos to that cop.

I mean, seriously, he was incredibly patient with her. Towards the end, you could tell he was really getting tired of her crap, but he never even raised his voice. Amazing.

Also, yay for that bank, making people wear masks in there.

As for that maskhole, what a ❄! Grow tfu, lady.

4. What is wrong with these people?

My best guess is extreme fear manifested in denial and then rage. Very odd.

5. The sense of entitlement...

So entitled, so sure she is brilliant when she is clueless. Arrogant and ignorant.

6. This officer did his job very professionally, I hope the maskless

idiots realize that private businesses can refuse service and ask you to leave.

7. She absolutely did not get serious until she got in the car. We need more of this.
