Got All Tangled Before
(I stop by a department store after work to grab a few things. While in the grocery section, I see some dinosaur chicken nuggets and decide to buy them for myself, even though I don’t have any kids. At the register, the cashier rings up my groceries.)
Cashier: “You know, we have frozen chicken nuggets.”
Me: “These are frozen.”
Cashier: “No, these are dinosaurs.”
Me: “Yeah, I know. I just kind of thought dinosaurs would be fun.”
Cashier: “Right, so I was just wondering if you saw the frozen ones.”
Me: *confused* “These ARE frozen ones. Unless I somehow grabbed some from a refrigerated section instead of the freezer?”
Cashier: *thinking* “I don’t even remember dinosaurs in frozen, but I could just be forgetting.”
Me: “I’m pretty sure I got them from the freezer section.”
Cashier: *exasperated* “No, I meant frozen chicken nuggets.”
Me: “These ARE frozen chicken nuggets.”
(We both stare at each other for a moment like the other person is a total moron.)
Cashier: *sighing* “I meant Frozen. You know…” *awkward pause* “Like with Elsa. ‘Let it go, let it gooo!’”
Me: *throwing up my hands* “Holy s***, you meant the movie ‘Frozen’!”
Cashier: “Yeah.”
Me: “Jesus Christ, that was confusing.”
Cashier: “Yeah… here’s your receipt.”
