There is a great "express" grocery store right near my house. Its got a fairly decent spread of goods as well as a large selection of fresh fruits and vegetables. Since I'm horrible at planning my life out in advance, I find myself stopping by two or three times a week for basics like Diet Coke, bananas and milk.
The clerks are all very nice and friendly. Everything was all find and dandy until yesterday when I had the following conversation with the newest checkout clerk:
Clerk: The weather is very nice outside.
Me: Yes, it is very pleasant.
Clerk: It is very romantic weather.
Me (unsure what to respond with): It's a little cold for me.
Clerk (looking directly into my eyes): No, it is hot. It is very hot.
Me: Nervous laughter as I grab my change and flee.
Time to find a new grocery store.
