It was late friday evening, as we complete our treasure hunt with limited crafty success we were told the store was closing (immediately). True enough it was nine-ish, a state of sadness pours over me not having another hour of hunting glory. That only means one thing... Time to check-out and drown my sorrows with what little liquid asset I hold dear to my heart (and belly).
{walk up to the cashier}
{fondling my behind} SHIT!
Me: Sorry, I left my wallet in my car. I'll go get it.
Cashier: Where's your car?
choices a) outside -parking lot steps away-
(Me) b) huh!? -lcbo interrogation method. act dumb-
c) not nearby but I'm standing here just for show
Me: outside
Cashier shouts to a staff to unlock the door.
My friend heads out to retrieve money.
She is still very curious where the car is.
{a cloud bubble forms over her}
(5 seconds elapse)
Cashier: Where's your car?
Out·side.. a) a city in scandinavia ?
(Cashier) b) a chinese word for WTF ?
c) does not compute
(another 5 sec pass)
My friend returns with payment and we're allowed to leave.
