Plus, when there is a camera shoved at you I'd find it easier just to hand it to her so they move the fuck on.
What bugs me about the cookie thing, or going to Daleys, etc., is the big ass production involved.
Instead of telling the service worker they need a minute to decide, they wait until the worker is at the counter, and only then do they start the song and dance, making the worker wait.
"Which one do you want? Thats oatmeal. Do you want chocolate? No not that one. Abbie look. This one? What is that? Tell her/him. No, not thank you, what is that? Good job. Grab it. What do you say? No, say thank you. Aweeee. Thank you worker! GREAT job Ab!"
Because heres the real deal. There will never be a time that Abbie walks up to the counter anywhere, whips out her iPad and says:
"Hello, my name is Abigail and I want a chocolate chip cookie." Never. (And, btw...the "greeting" thing is already gone LOL)
If there was a chance she could ever do that, I could understand making the worker stand there through that painfully awkward scenario, but it wont happen. We see them do this same shit at the candy stores, bakeries, all the places they go. Its ridiculous.
And I'll take it one step further. They think Abbie is cute. Well, Asa does. I think P hates these interactions to be honest, but Asa? He thinks shes just so darn cute...look at her!! She just educated that person by asking for a cookie and signing "thank you", even though I prompted her the whole time. Surely this person will now be enlightened! Life changed! Going home to tell everyone they know about the amazing Princess they served that day! How wonderful and patient her parents were! Blah freakin blah. Lets see how cute Abbie looks in five years snatching a cookie and shoving the entire thing in her mouth.
I'm just over these fools!!
