Not The Brightest Of The Bunch
(I am standing at the front counter next to the bowl of bananas we have for making smoothies. A customer in his mid-20s approaches the counter.)
Customer: “Hey, do you sell any bananas?”
Me: “Yes, we do have bananas. However, we cannot sell them to you as we need them for our smoothies.”
Customer: “Great! How much for one?”
Me: “They’re not for sale; we need them. There is a shopping center close by. If you go there, they can sell you bananas, and cheaply too.”
Customer: “Okay… then how much for a banana smoothie?”
Me: “That will be $4.99 for a small, and $5.99 for a large.”
Customer: “Okay… can I get a banana smoothie, but can you not ‘smoothie’ it?”
