Guy Pops Out False Eye to Prove He Didn't See Other Customer

It can be hard to prove to someone that you just made a simple human error, especially when they're a stranger in line at the store. With this guy, he had a winning strategy for showing this other guy that he didn't see him. Sometimes fellow customers aren't so understanding.

    Text - Posted by u/rde42 1 day ago Award from ZiggerTheNa... I really, really didn't see you! oc s This just about qualifies as malicious compliance, I think. Backstory: back in 2010 I had my left eye removed, due to cancer. It's no big problem but obviously my field of vision on that side is not quite what it was.

    Text - On with the story. I visited a local convenience store to pick up a couple of items. It is a very small store, and there's no clear area to queue; just two narrow aisles in front of the counter, at right angles to each other. I collected my stuff and walked up to the counter just as someone was leaving it. I heard a small noise on my left, and realised I had gone in front of someone waiting in the other aisle. I apologised, stepped back and said "I

I replaced my eye and let him finish buying his stuff.

    Text - Score hidden · 21 hours ago rde42 There's a story (almost certainly apocryphal) about a guy sitting in a cafe. There was an attractive woman sitting at a nearby table; she sneezed, and her prosthetic eye flew out. He had quick reactions, and grabbed it as it flew past. He returned it to her, she invited him to sit with her, and they got talking. One thing led to another, and they ended up in a relationship and then married. One day he thought to ask her "What attracted you to me?", to whi
