One time I walked into a 24/7 grocery store at night and an employee was at the tail end of an argument with someone who was walking out the door.

The guy walking out the door said something rude like "alright well you can go fuck yourself" and the employee yelled out after him, right as I walked in "Yeah!? well at least I have a HOME!"

I thought to myself that no matter how shitty the homeless guy was being, you should never yell that at anyone because of the chance that a bystander like me will wander into earshot and hear only that one single line and never forget it for the rest of my life.
