Friday Wisdom – Shopping

Posted on 02/26/2021 by Andrew Reynolds

I went to buy a mattress.  The sales person showed me a few, but I was unsure and said, “I don’t know, I’ll need to sleep on it.”

Guardians of the Galaxy  – the security guards standing outside the Samsung store.

A judge went the mall and shouted an order in the food court.

If the shoe fits buy two pairs.

The toy store tried to sell me Supergirl, Lara Croft and Wonder Woman.  They might be a heroine dealer.

Why is the slowest checker always in the express lane?

Advice to men: Don’t try to guess her size, just buy anything “petite” and keep the receipt.

They’re giving the new C.E.O of Amazon a new title.  From now on he’ll be referred to as the Prime Minister.

Today I ordered an egg and a chicken from Amazon – I’ll let you know which one comes first.

    Okay, these were all great, but I think you saved the best for last. That one is hilarious!

    “A heroine dealer” – bahahaha!!! That one really tickled my funnybone. Your advice about buying “petite” made me laugh, too; but mainly because it would only work with women who aren’t nearly six feet tall. If Hubby bought me something labelled ‘petite’, I’d wonder if he had a mistress who was currently puzzling over how to wear a garment that was two feet too long.

      I don’t buy clothes for my wife, but I do go with her sometimes – mostly to bring my credit card and to reenforce why she doesn’t like shopping with me. I think it’s the supportive comments like, “That looks nice on you, get a dozen.”

    “Don’t try to guess her size” is a “Many a true word is spoken in jest” jest.

    Why is the slowest checker always in the express lane? I believe that’s a corollary to Why is the other lane always faster?
