I'm very good at basic math so I know what the change will be before the person can have the till tell them. If the till doesn't tell them then life ends as we know it. And don't change the program once they have plugged it in. My bill was 5.65. I handed her a ten and she promptly entered it and I said wait and handed her another one. This brought life as we know it to an end. I said just give me a 5 and the .35 cents. This could not be accomplished because the till said my change was 4.35. Once I realized that I was dealing with someone dense enough that the lights were starting to dim I asked the black hole to give me my dollar back and give me my change. She hands me the change and then I hand her back the 5 ones and said could I please have a 5 for that. After staring and counting several times she relented and gave me a 5. Unreal.

bot a dog Spelling checkers suck. They don't find the right word to spell. I bought a dog. I bit a dog. I got a dog. My other dog is a bot. Not one single spelling error did it find. Me, I consistently spell the same words wrong over and over again. The spell-checker usually finds them.
