Serious question, how do you handle a customer who watched a YouTube video and now thinks they know your job?

Had a guy yesterday at my booth in Chicago tell me I was 'doing it all wrong' because some influencer said chip readers are slow and I should just swipe. Asked him if he wanted to pay the chargeback fee when his card gets skimmed, and he backed off quick. Anyone else get this nonsense regularly?

Did you at LEAST get to hit him with the 'oh I'm sorry, I didn't realize YouTubers had to get PCI compliant' line? Honestly we should start carrying little scripts for these guys, like 'congratulations, you've unlocked the level where the real work starts'.

Felt that in my soul, I always forget the script but end up saying something twice as sarcastic anyway.
