Was at my pickup bank, some loud hipsters (read: broke but snobby and opinionated, with beard and piercings) were next to me at the counter. They come out with my pickup (halves and dimes) and Mr. Hipster said, very loudly because he wanted everyone to hear how cool he was, "I KNOW WHAT YOU'RE DOING! GOOD HUNTING! MERCURY DIMES ARE 90% SILVER! YOU CAN MAKE A LOT OF MONEY DOING THAT!" Ms. Hipster said "I'm sure he doesn't want you saying all that." Dryly and sarcastically, I said "No, keep going!"
And because Mr. Hipster was too self absorbed to read my restrained displeasure, he complied. Loudly, because he wanted to make sure other people knew that he had more knowledge to share.
So I left really quickly.
I called the branch back a little later to smooth things over "I'm sorry I left without saying thank you, that guy was really obnoxious and I didn't like what he was saying, I don't want to get robbed, I appreciate what you do, I'm definitely not getting rich out of this." And of course, since my bank is cool and very awesome, they're like "Yeah, they kept talking for 10 minutes after you left, I understand you don't want people talking about your hobby, safety, etc." so we're good.
But thanks, Mr. Hipster. Ya jackass.
For reference.
