Mrs. Butterpurse
Scene: two older ladies at a table.
One is telling the other about the time she got in a physical altercation with a waitress at a Waffle House because the server mistakenly said the syrup was real maple syrup but — plot twist — it wasn’t. She kept harping about how dumb the server was for thinking it was real maple, as if that made it obvious why the girl needed to be attacked over her mistaken categorization of a breakfast condiment. Her voice was full of pride as she recanted this tale.
She then produced a stick of butter out of her purse and explained that’s why she always packs her own butter and syrup when she goes out to eat, because restaurants usually only have margarine and fake maple.
I’m not sure what is weirder: the Waffle House fisticuffs or the purse butter. Also, it wasn’t even breakfast.
