 Sometimes, I feel sheepish about what I'm using Apple Pay to buy on my phone.

So, when it authorizes, I like to provide the camera a very low-key smile that says, "Well. What're you gonna do?!”

And, then, I kinda shrug.

Think: Walter Matthau in "The Taking of Pelham One Two Three."

It's a very wry but legally-unactionable gesture I’ve apparently decided to pursue. 
 @cfcf7cd7 I working on the right expression that conveys

- yes I know I ordered this yesterday 
- yes I know that you know
- no it’s a big deal
- no I’m fine, really
- no you don’t need to call someone to check in on me
- yes I know I could make my own sandwich
