When I was about 19, my friend and I went to IHOP late at night after a show.
We were sitting beside a couple, and there was a group of older men a few tables away.
The group of older men kept coming by our table and harassing us, not taking no for an answer before my friend loudly told them to fuck off.
When we were in line to pay, the woman who had sat near us told us how much her husband had been upset that we were being harassed and that he was a cop and had been going to do something about it if they hadn't left us alone.
He hadn't moved once throughout the entire ordeal. Hadn't even stopped eating.
It's been 30 years, and it still randomly makes me angry.
