I’m guessing it’s kids making water bombs…

I’m not touching that with a ten-foot pole!

Apparently, Arkady. They’re all wondering which of the bfs need the magnums!!!
Boy, Dibs, that was a real conversation stopper.
For those of you who just want a look at the remark about CVS….
“And yet, despite all this, I do wish my local CVS drugstore would add self-check. Why? Because the requirements for a cashier appear to be the ability to crack gum and feign indifference when a large line forms and you are busy texting your peeps. In a scrum of four or five CVS cashiers, there is at most one who will deign to ring you up. O.K., it may gross you out that I am buying foot fungus cream, but you’re not going to catch anything by just touching the package. I think.”
Imagine what they think when I’m checking out with the four bottles of KY and the magnum condoms ( those are for someone else who occasionally visits.)
Thanks Arkady. So I read the following paragraph and feel the writer’s pain. However, I take exception with the writer saying the cashiers’ “feign indifference”. I believe they all are truly indifferent.

Speaking of that sort of thing, there was some really, really hot latin eye candy on the train this morning.
Biff – Sorry – it was difficult to get for some reason:
