Overheard at Big C

I picked up Mina at school a couple days ago and we stopped by (the about to die at any minute) Big C on the way home to do some shopping for the few things it’s worth going there for – coffee beans, pistachios, keto sweetener. Mina overheard a staff dude asking one of the butchers in the meat area,”do chickens have spines?” The butcher confirmed kind of incredulously that they do, indeed, have spines. This set Mina off laughing for a good couple minutes. Then we got to the checkout, where either my pronunciation when I asked the old lady running the register if they had bags was off, or she was just hard of hearing and she squinted at Mina with a crazy old lady face to repeat the question. We both laughed at that one.
