So... I'm at Victoria station late last night, have the munchies. Head for Burger King.
Now I have a habit of whistling old musical numbers when my mind is wandering, and Kismet is a favourite. So it's Stranger in Paradise. As I get to the queue this drunk arabian looking guy in an expensive suit steps in front of me. I carry on whistling. He turns to me. He's about 5'6" and I'm 6'3" and almost 20 stone. "Do you really have to?" he asks. "Well as you just pushed in front of me, yeah I think I really do!" I carry on, actually singing the occasional lyric that I can remember..."I saw your face and I lah-dah-deeee. up from the commonplaaace, into the laaaaaahhhh...." whistle whistle whistle all about 12 inches from the guys right ear.
"Right! I hope you enjoy annoying everyone else here tonight, cos you're a CUNT!!" stomp-stomp-stomp off.
"Actually this was specifically to annoy you. Now you're fucking off I'm gonna stop. Have a good evening."
The moral?
Do not fuck with the power of classic musical theatre. Especially from a twenty-stone passive-aggressive mutant in a kilt.

Some people can't stand for others to enjoy themselves. I don't know the tune you were whistling but I'm sure I would've enjoyed hearing it.
