WTF is wrong with friendly convenience store worker? →[More:]I just drove up to the convenience store (it's easily walkable but at this time of night there are lots of drunken people walking home from the bar on the corner opposite the convenience store...and I'm just not in the mood for random drunks harassing me) and I took Binky with me.

So Binky is sitting in the car looking around, being his normal low key Binkyself.

I get up to the register (I am the only customer in the store) and the lady working (a woman I have never seen - which is weird because I know most of the folks that work at the store because I'm there a minimum of once every 24 hours and I've been known to go there five times in one day) says that I have a cute dog (check) and adds, "Is he a killer?"

HUH? What? What...the...fuck? If I'd had Lulu with me it would have been a fair question - Lulu barks at everything that comes within 20 feet of the car. Binky does not. He normally rests his chin on the dash of the car and gives me sad eyes. Tonight he was sitting in the driver's seat with his chin on the steering wheel giving the sad eyes which made the woman's question all the more puzzling. Binky does not look mean AT ALL. Especially not with the sad eye routine. I'm still puzzled about the question. As soon as what she said registered with me I started laughing and said, "He might lick you to death."

(I believe if I was threatened he likely would do something other than lick but if I wasn't in his general area he'd gladly welcome an intruder, I think. Lulu, on the other hand, would gladly make lunch of an intruder.)

I'm assuming that this woman has been bitten by what looked like a friendly dog to her or that she's just afraid of dogs. I was so gotten by the question that I didn't ask her wtf. Maybe if I see her again I'll ask her.

The woman also didn't mean killer as in ladykiller. She truly meant it in the mean murder-y sense of the word killer.
