I had a male peer try to explain my senior thesis to me in the middle of me presenting my senior thesis. I just, i was so appalled it took a second to even respond and I’m still angry that all I could think of was, “Well, yes. I’m glad you understand the premise.”

The man in the local supermarket car park who was “guiding ” me into a parking space. I thanked him and said I had 30 + years driving experience & reverse parking sensors on my car.
