How rude!

Gary and I were at brunch at Sapore in the Village as per a recommendation by Jo and Ken--as well as my keen-ness to enjoy a meal at this particular quaint venue--when he was rebuffed by another patron. Apparently he was being loud.

Now, Gary is the OPPOSITE of loud. A mild mannered Asian...he was horrified at this slander. We spent the bulk of the meal with him reverting to shocked commentary and wild gesticulating behind the back of the strange, foreign woman (who was undoubtedly nursing a hangover) that had had the audacity to rebuke him.

It's curious how one reacts to statements that question the basis of who we think we are. It was riveting to see Gary's reaction to the incident as it unfolded.
