"They were quite comfortable in their control of the whole restaurant, including one's God-given right to throw his arms around and poke me in the back any time he felt like it."
Not only would I have also ripped them a new one, I probably would have broken that assholes fingers as well. Maybe it was best for them it had been you there instead of me.
The last time someone called me a [black] bitch, even though I silently thanked him for the compliment, I informed him that as I look nothing like his mother, I couldn't see how he could ever mistake me for her and to call out her 'name' somewhere else if he was trying to look for her and get her attention.
So no, you didn't overreact at all. You were just much more nicer to them about it than I would have been.
I don't think I've ever been prouder to be 'Snark's Bitch' *grinnibble*.
