“dragon lady” is the common name of the biggest b-tch who ever walked the earth, and unfortunately she is a frequent customer to albertsons #6741. this particular breed of b-tch is known to ask for carry outs, verbally bash the unlucky courtesy clerk who helps her out, and proceed to glare at him/her during her subsequent trips to albertsons. although she has a somewhat human form, she does not have a traditional name because she is not human. some baggers report seeing her with a forked tongue, red eyes and steam coming out of her nostrils.
