What made somebody automatically qualify for world's biggest D-bag?

I was at an Apple service provider waiting for an iPod Nano replacement

when this guy who was talking to another Apple employee started threatening her.

He was furious because she wouldn't replace his iPad.

She was extremely and unbelievably patient and repeatedly tried to explain

to him that the store was just an authorized service provider and not an Apple store, and that

they'd need approval from Apple's regional office to replace his iPad. He asked for a piece of paper,

scrolled his Twitter handle on it and repeatedly told the girl to check it to see how many followers

he had. You'll be surprised, he said, and I'll be tweeting about this. Show your manager and maybe

they'll change their mind. He also said his number of followers will put a dent on Apple and that

he'll never buy an Apple product again. He also repeatedly threw his iPhone down onto the counter to demonstrate that he couldn't break it. He was still at it when I left. Nuts. And the kicker? I jotted down the Twitter handle that he gave the girl and looked at it when I got home. It was owned by some Canadian hockey player with like 200,000 plus followers, who was in another part of the world and who looked

nothing like the guy at the store. I mean, at least he didn't say I'm a big deal on this

website called Reddit. I worked at a local Coldstone when I was a kid. This shop was owned by a family

who had kids in my high school, so I was pretty close with the owners. On a particularly busy afternoon,

I was whipping up someone's ice cream when I overhear things getting heated at the cash register.

One of our owners, Lynn, was working there, and an upset woman was complaining about the price of

her order. Lin broke down each item and how much tax was, to which the customer responded that

she deserved a discount, and if she didn't get one that she'd be calling her good friends

who owned the establishment.

Lynn calmly said, I'm Lynn, and I own this establishment.

Please leave.

I've never seen someone turn red so fast.
