Beach Incident

So I am sitting on a blanket at the beach, admittedly to the far left of my blanket, when I feel my back brushed by a small gust as a pair of flip flops are thrown just behind me tossing sand onto my back. As I look over my left shoulder, I realize that not more than 18 inches from me and my blanket is someone plunging an umbrella into the sand and rocking it back and forth like you do to bury it deeper. With every rock, this “someone” is just about catching my hair on the end of his umbrella. Next he is followed by six others all about to take their places on one small blanket, which of course, is now actually touching my butt! Really…Really? I mean I get that beaches today are often overcrowded, and clearly we cannot expect that everyone shares a true sense of personal space not to mention common courtesy, but you have got to be kidding me! Your feet are actually going to be touching my butt….Really…Really?
