One of those flashes of customer wit that leave service workers entirely unmoved

What I said to the grocery checkout clerk when she was momentarily stumped by how to bag my two items: a refrigerated carton of a dozen eggs and a hot rotisserie chicken:

"Looks like we have a chicken-and-egg problem."

This is one of the virtues of blogs. Even if the joke doesn't work on its real-time audience, you can try again on more discerning masses.

Cute, me five or whatever, but is anyone else bothered by the idea of putting "a refrigerated carton of a dozen eggs and a hot rotisserie chicken" in the SAME BAG?!?

Of course, I'm the guy who re-bags my groceries correctly, and right in front of them.
