(I’m working the register of a small toy store when a family walks in with a two-year-old boy in a stroller and his older brother (who’s about eight) walking alongside it. They walk past our new “Dark Knight Rises” merchandise.)

2-year-old Brother: *holds his arms out* “I WANNA BE BATMAN! I WANNA BE BATMAN!”

Me: *smiling* “We all want to be Batman.”

8-year-old Brother: “Batman’s real where I come from!”

Me: “Oh, are you from Gotham City?”

8-year-old Brother: “No, Tennessee!”
