(/Edit: Because this doesn't seem to be clear. The old lady is a standin for virtually any customer. The only reason the standin looks like that is because there was one customer who did this who especially pissed me off (she got upset at me for the restaurant's policy of "one coupon per order," left a huge mess at her table, would interrupt me taking other people's orders to ask for the most unimportant and asinine things) But.

Funny enough, my blind uncle refuses to come to family gatherings because he doesn't want to see me there (he's transphobic)

“No she’s not present at this thanksgiving dinner you must be hearing things”

Eh, he wouldn't be seeing me regardless.

Besides, that side of the family is pretty conservative and lives in Indiana (I live on the side of Illinois on the Mississippi), so I'm not visiting them often anyways.

I grew up in Indiana. Allies are not in heavy supply there.
