Salesgirl in a boutique, probably in her mid-30s: Is it nice out?
Me: Yes, it's so gorgeous. I hope you get out early enough to enjoy it today.
Salesgirl: I hate it.
Me: Hate what?
Salesgirl: This weather. It sucks.
Me: Oh. Okay...
Salesgirl: I mean, how do you like it?
Me: Oh um, it's just so pretty out. Makes me happy.
Salesgirl: Makes me miserable. I like the snow, the clouds, the gray. I like the depressing weather. I like the dreariness and the blizzards. It makes me content, makes me feel good. This winter was a good one.
Me: Oh...
Salesgirl: I mean, do you think that I'm a depressed person?
Me: I don't know...
Salesgirl: I mean, do I look depressed?
Me: You look just fine.
Salesgirl: Well what's that supposed to mean, just fine?
Me: Oh I'm not sure, I've gotta go. Thanks so much.
YIKES.

Only you get yourself into these kind of situations! That's why Lan and I are unfriendly-- ok maybe just Lan.
