From Not Always Right: Even An Atheist Would Pray For Them To Go Away
Customer: Sneezes
Me: “Gesundheit.”
Customer: “No, it’s ‘God bless you’.”
Me: “Well, I’m not religious, so it wouldn’t be much of a blessing.”
Customer: “You don’t believe in God?”
Me: “No.”
Her body language changes to something defensive.
Customer: In a mocking tone “So, how does that feel?”
She looks at me like she has just asked the most profound question in history and I am going to drop to my knees and accept Jesus into what was clearly the massive, moralless hole in my life.
Me: “Do you believe in Buddha?”
Customer: “No…”
Me: “It feels like that.”
She didn’t look very happy with me and walked off.

First initial “J” middle “K”, last initial “R”.

RJ’s personal philosophy is a joke.
