10 things (or less) I hate about you

Interesting tidbit I just learned from the check-out girl (while perfecting our impressions of The Count): the tellers in express check-out lanes are not allowed to point out the number of items a customer has regardless of the posted limit. These boundaries serve on an honor system in hopes customers will respect them. Because that works so well with speed limits.

So next time, feel free to call the family with 53 items in the express lane a collective douchebag. Don't even waste a plural on them. If not for yourself, then do it on behalf of cashiers everywhere.
