rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Isn\u2019t it amazing<\/a> how some people don\u2019t know how to behave in public?<\/p>\n<p>Sure, if it\u2019s a kid, that\u2019s one thing, but for an adult to be a complete moron?<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s pretty annoying!<\/p>\n<p>And, if you\u2019ve been out in public lately, it\u2019s not that rare\u2026<\/p>\n<p>In today\u2019s story, a woman asked readers if they think she did anything wrong by asking someone, an adult, to behave in public.<\/p>\n<p>Let\u2019s take a look at what she had to say.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>\u201cMy husband and I are currently staying at a resort that has several koi ponds.<\/p>\n<p>While walking past one, I saw a guy lying on his stomach, reaching into the shallow water to get closer to the fish.<\/p>\n<p>He looked at the person he was with and asked, \u201cShould I touch the fish?\u201d while already actively putting his hand in.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>What an idiot!<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>As I walked by, I firmly said, \u201cNo, don\u2019t touch the fish.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He seemed embarrassed and immediately stood up.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m not sorry I said it\u2014touching koi can actually harm their protective slime coat, and I really hope he thinks twice before doing it again.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Oh, lighten up!<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>However, my husband seemed a little shocked by how directly I confronted a total stranger, which made me second-guess how I handled it.<\/p>\n<p>It genuinely made me mad in the moment, but now I\u2019d like a reality check.<\/p>\n<p>AITA?\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Let\u2019s see what readers had to say about this.<\/p>\n<p>This person said she\u2019s NTA.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"
