So when I got to the first window I paid for her order along with my own.

The cashier must have told her what I'd done because as we moved up she leaned out her window and waved to me and mouthed "Thank you.", obviously embarrassed that I had repaid her rudeness with kindness.

When I got to the second window I showed them both receipts and took her food too. Now she has to go back to the end of the queue and start all over again.

Don't blow your horn at old people, they have been around a long time

You took what could have been a wonderful lesson in kindness to making this young lady feel justified for her behavior. Hope it made you feel better.

This is too funny. Not the joke itself but everyone’s reactions to it.

This is The Villages. It will still get posted once a month, for the next 20 years.

I'm at a loss why people think this is a venue to post the Internet Memes they find ... like no one on here has a computer and hasn't seen the same things, 10,000 times.

Yup!

The comments from those who don't realize it's an old joke are priceless...
