Jesus Christ. I wish I had the easy, conflict free life this guy has so I wouldn't have any goddamn thing else to worry about other than this sort of crap.

I say hello and, if they make eye contact each time, I also may make small talk.

First time, smile.
Second time, stare stonily.
Third time, put a screwdriver into their kidney.

This is an interesting take to have from the described situation.

You should go on a cruise. Gets weird by the end of the week.

And no matter how many times you cross them in the aisle, they act so surprised when you start massaging their neck in front of the meat case

I'm a socially awkward penguin so it is always a nightmare, especially if i see a good looking girl. I always do the thing where I try to go around but always pick the wrong way. So we end up doing the awkward chicken dance move until we get past each other. I usually end up saying what sounds like "up" a few times for some weird reason. Then if I see them a few more times on an aisle, I'll usually try to say something clever or something but the words that come out make no sense. Something like "haha. Hi again. Tater butthole flamingos."
Then the awkward silent head nod.
Proceed to leave full buggy of food in next aisle and leave.
Go to different grocery store.

This doesn't matter with a stranger.
The problem arises when the other person is maybe some old work associate you really didn't even like, you already had a bit of small talk on Aisle 1...and then continually pass each other for the next 10 minutes.

Is this like a spinoff of the "Have drugs negatively effected your life" thread?
