Just had an encounter with a MAGAt in grocery store parking lot. [View all]

Husband and I stopped at grocery store after our weekly yoga class.

We took my car, which is festooned with stickers of a feminist and gay rights sort.

My personal favorite is: I'm too clumsy to be around fragile masculinity.

Anyway, we come out o the store to see a guy closely examining my stickers.

My husband says, as we get close, "See any you like?"

The guy backs away and says, "No."
He has a really sour look on his face.

He pauses and then says, "They are illogical," as he walks away.

I said, "Sure buddy," and laughed.

He passed us on the way out of the parking lot.

My husband gave him a cheery wave as he sneered at us.

They hate that we exist.

Oh well......
