There are a lot of record collectors around here and when the starting gate of the estate sale opens it’s first come first serve. Many times I’ll be the second one to the pile and be screaming “hurry up” in my brain behind the early bird but since the playing field is level I can deal with it. But on a few occasions I’ve had a sneaky hand snake around me to the stack I’m looking through and I either give them a subtle “excuse me” or a snobby “I beg your pardon” depending on my mood and that seems to do the trick.
So I’d chalk it up as a bad experience and just be happy it was a matchbook instead of severed head mug that someone screened you out of and grabbed.
And if the “well known member of Tiki Central” with the matchbook is reading this, we’re all on to you.
