Crazy Old Lady (inspired by life, but fiction)

Last night I went to the local supermarket to pick up some groceries.
In the front of the store was an elderly lady struggling to get a cart out of the isle. I went over and said "excuse me, mam. Let me get that for you."
After getting her the cart, she said to me "You know, I don't care what some people may say, I think your people are great." I responded to her "On behalf of Jews everywhere, I appreciate that."
With shock in her aged eyes, she shouts out "You're a Jew! I thought you were gay! Get out of my way..." She walked into the store muttering some more slurs... I just stood there blinking. Amazed, I just didn't know what to think. Crazy old lady.
