Isn’t it amazing how some people don’t know how to behave in public?
Sure, if it’s a kid, that’s one thing, but for an adult to be a complete moron?
That’s pretty annoying!
And, if you’ve been out in public lately, it’s not that rare…
In today’s story, a woman asked readers if they think she did anything wrong by asking someone, an adult, to behave in public.
Let’s take a look at what she had to say.
AITA for telling a stranger at a resort not to touch the koi fish?
“My husband and I are currently staying at a resort that has several koi ponds.
While walking past one, I saw a guy lying on his stomach, reaching into the shallow water to get closer to the fish.
He looked at the person he was with and asked, “Should I touch the fish?” while already actively putting his hand in.
What an idiot!
As I walked by, I firmly said, “No, don’t touch the fish.”
He seemed embarrassed and immediately stood up.
I’m not sorry I said it—touching koi can actually harm their protective slime coat, and I really hope he thinks twice before doing it again.
Oh, lighten up!
However, my husband seemed a little shocked by how directly I confronted a total stranger, which made me second-guess how I handled it.
It genuinely made me mad in the moment, but now I’d like a reality check.
AITA?”
