"I bought every pie to spite that whining brat"

Oh, he's probably a liberal Democrat who gave them all away to the poor.
Come to think of it, I don't know any liberal Democrats smart enough to think that stunt up on the spot, LOL!!!!
No, a liberal democrat would have suggested someone else buy the pies and give them away and chastised and berated you if you didn't.
I'd be surprised. Liberals of any description prefer to spend other people's money. When it comes to their own cash, they turn predictably conservative...and indignant about the whole thing. See Nancy Pelosi, Hillary Clinton, and Bob Kerry. Incidentally, Kerry married the widow of the Heinz fortune.
Who, by the way, was vocally conservative until she married Kerry, when, being rich and pretty much invulnerable, she switched to being equally vocally liberal. How conveeeeeniennnttt.
Same. It just doesn't sound like a believable story. It's a perfect storm of odd behavior right down to the cashier.
"Who bought all the pies?"
"It was that man right there."
Nah, not buying it. If you run out of pies you're not gonna say "That man just bought them all." You'd say, "Sorry but we ran out." And even if the cashier did say "Someone just bought them all," there's no way they'd point out the customer that did.
The dialogue, the absurd behavior, none of it matches up. It came from Reddit. It's a great piece of fiction, but that's about it.
The customer in front of me at my favorite barbecue place was arguing with my favorite cashier about being charged $1.50 he wasn't expecting because he didn't pay sufficient attention to the menu and how many sides come with a meal. He was being belligerent and rude, and kept repeating accusations of deliberate deception which were of course untrue. Finally she refunded his $1.50 so he would just leave and stop holding up the line.
I always order the same thing, and always tip the same amount, except this time I added $1.50 to the normal amount. She laughed and said "You didn't have to do that." "And you shouldn't have to put up with that."

Anyone who has ever worked restaurants - or customer service anywhere, basically - can tell oodles of those stories. People can be pretty rude, and it seems to combine easily with ignorance...
I just dont' understand some people. Fighting over $1.50? Why waste your time/energy/dignity/etc. over pennies?
I imagine if you asked him, he would say it is not about the money, it is the principle, and I can respect that. The problem is he was just plain wrong about what he thought he was standing up for. It's ok to be a confused old man, but you don't have to be mean about it.
