Being told off as an adult
When was the last time you were properly told off? You know: treated as an errant child rather than the sophisticated adult you are.
The sort of thing that dredges up an involuntary teenage mumble of "Sorry, Miss" whilst you stare at the ground.
Go on, tell us what childish thing you were up to when you got caught.
Oh, and can we have more than one-line answers this time? Cheers!

"Oh grow up"
I have a habit of engaging till operators in shops in conversation.
This annoys the lovely Mrs Duck because she thinks - quite wrongly - I am chatting them up. They are merely a captive audience for a one-on-one stand-up routine.
I have lost count of the number of times I have been given a public dressing-down in the middle of the High Street with the words:
"No! You cannot tell them to take the rest of the day off"
and
"It's like shopping with kids"
and the immortal
"I'm never taking you ANYWHERE ever again"
Thank you. I'm here all week.
