Can't we all just get along?

I witnessed something at Stop and Shop that blew my mind yesterday. Two grown men, screaming at each other in the checkout line. Why, you ask? I don't actually know, but the argument went a little something like this.

Guy 1: What the hell do you think you're doing?

Guy 2: What's your problem man?

1: Oh don't even get me started.

2: Don't get ME started!

1: You've been getting close to me, back off.

2: You didn't even give me a chance to put my stuff down!

1: Oh don't get me started!

2: Don't get YOU started? You don't even want to see ME get started!

1: How do you expect me to check out?

2: You left me NO room for my stuff!

1: BACK OFF!

2: YOU BACK OFF!

Then Dane made me stop staring and we left. I honestly cannot believe that two grown men got that upset with each other that they felt the need to scream at the top of their lungs in the checkout line in the grocery store, seemingly over the placement of their groceries on the conveyor belt. Apparently they are not aware that there are these amazing little inventions that are placed at every checkout line I have ever been in. They do an amazing job of separating groceries and they're just little plastic bars. The use of this little device could have saved a ton of trouble.

Really, people? Let's just be nice to each other. Ok?

It sounds like an SNL sketch, seriously. What the hell was their problem?
