The Horrors Of The Grocery Check-Out

So, we were at the check-out line of the grocery story today.  (The boys didn't have school today, and I had to take them on some errands.)

This older lady came into our line and smiled or laughed or something; and this is how things went:


Zach:  You're funny.

Lady:  Oh, really?

Me:  **Nervously**  You mean, the lady is funny because she was laughing? 

Zach:  You're funny.

Lady:  Ignores him.

Zach:  What's wrong with you?

Zach:  **Louder and before I can say a word**  What's wrong with you?

Lady:  Ignores him.

Me:  Sternly tells him that it's not nice to say that to someone and threatens to take away his McDonald's toy that's waiting for him in the car.

Zach:  Screams loudly that he wants his toy.

Me:  Tells him that if he doesn't stop crying, it will be even longer before he gets his toy back.
