Me: “Can I help you, sir?”
Customer: “A packet of 20 Marlboro Lights, please.”
(I hand him the cigarettes.)
Customer: “Wait, I don’t want these ones.”
Me: “Why? They’re Marlboro Lights. Did you change your mind?”
Customer: “No, I don’t want ones with this health warning about cigarettes causing impotency.”

Customer: “Give me the ‘harms others’ ones.”
