Small Talk (Don't Do it!)

I was in the 'Ten items or less' Queue yesterday having picked up some crackers, a tub of cream cheese, milk and Extrovert hair putty. As the lady scanned the cream cheese and hair putty I had the strongest urge to remark; "I'd best not get those two confused, huh?” The zombie-like look on her face told me that such a quip would have been rewarded with the kind of look a dog gives you when you show it a card trick.
