Politeness

Overheard in the movie theatre the other night

Two 13-yr-old kids running down steps of theatre, one stumbling: "Sh*t!"

Man with wife, passing them on stairs going up to seats, back at the kid: " 'Shoot!' "


Thank you sir. It probably didn't make a difference to the kid (who looked back at you with bemusement and scorn as you passed) but it was a good try nonetheless.
