Well those kids usually proceed along these lines, "mother fucker do you know who my dad is?". The woman was threatening to bring the consumer court on that guy (WTF?) and insisted on calling his supplier and screaming her head off at him. By that point I couldn't take it and I went up to her. Smiled and told her that I intern at an chocolatier (yes, I lied) and it isn't this guys fault. Moreover, it would be better to write an email to the GM since they actually listen to such stuff. Hence, could she please leave the old man alone? I made her smile and shut the fuck up.

Well those kids usually proceed along these lines, "mother fucker do you know who my dad is?". Initially I thought you were making a guess at what happened, but now I notice you are the OP. So... huh? There are dick-heads in the world though - you're right.

That's how we stop the world being petty. By getting involved, even when it's scary or socially weird, and trying to stand for the things we believe in. Sure, some of us get hurt along the way, but if you want a society worth living in, it's worth participating in it too. Thank you.

> Well those kids usually proceed along these lines, "mother fucker do you know who my dad is?". Happens a lot in India. The fact that kids with rich dads can, in fact, get away with anything doesn't help. At college I see people getting violent over trivial matters. Fights always end with rich dads bribing the police to let their kids off the hook. I think jacquesm hit the nail on the head (http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1678315 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1678315). Inexperience, combined with the illusion of invincibility, makes these kids dangerous.

"mother fucker do you know who my dad is?". the appropriate response is: "no, does your mother?"
