So I took my phone to a bakery and coffee shop called Some Crust and read Elena Ferrante at an outdoor table and hoped for some amusing college student to hit on me. I got hit on by amusing senior citizens instead. Perhaps they, like the Klan, had been lately emboldened.
The narrator visits a bakery and coffee shop named Some Crust, seeking a charming interaction with college students while enjoying a book by Elena Ferrante at an outdoor table. Instead of younger admirers, she finds her attention drawn by the friendly advances of senior citizens.
This unexpected encounter raises a humorous reflection on societal dynamics, suggesting that older individuals may have gained newfound confidence in their interactions, much like other groups that feel empowered. The comparison to the Klan adds a layer of irony to the narrator's experience.
