Dude, this is Whole Foods!!

I was in Whole Foods waiting at the deli counter to pay for a small green salad for $14.89 and a raw potato for $2.34, when a woman asked the deli guy where they kept the tubs of Greggs' Margarine.

The deli guy, of course, tried to be polite but wasn't very convincing. "I'm sorry," he kind of said. "Whole Foods doesn't carry Greggs' Margarine." But what I really heard before I put down my $14.89 salad and $2.34 raw potato:

"WTF, yo!?!? We're in Whole Foods, dude!! Greggs'?? Tubs of margarine!?!?? Get that weak shit out of here! You're not in WinCo, bro. This is Whole Foods! Sheeezes. Damn. You don't just come in here and ask for Greggs' tubs of margarine. Where do you think you are?? This ain't no IGA, fool! Unless it has carob and sprouting flax in it, no dice, no way. This is Whole Foods. You best be getting your ass out of here before I waste any more time talking to you!!"
