@Blindbird LOCUTUS COMES ALIVE!

My exact thought.

Right? Do you always get stuck behind the person with 500 inane questions as well?

@Blindbird Oh god (for want of a better term) - every single time...

Customer: Do you stock that cheese I tried in Portugal in 1987?
Checkout operator: Sorry, I don't what cheese that was.
Customer: Brian really liked it too. It was yellow. Do you stock any yellow Portuguese cheese?
CO: I don't think so, but you'd be better off asking the staff on the cheese counter.
Customer: Do you think <insert name of rival shop here> might have it?
CO: I couldn't really say - I don't work there.
Customer: Do you think you might stock it in the future?
CO: If I knew what was going to happen in the future, I'd have won the lottery by now and wouldn't be stuck in here serving people like you.
Customer: Do you stock that nice bread my sister buys?
...and so on, for at least 20 minutes

@Jnei I think we've been in the exact same lines. Which is a bit odd as there's an ocean between.

@Blindbird Thus confirming my theory that the interior of supermarkets is actually another dimension, completely separate from the one the outside of supermarkets exists within.

@Jnei you may be on to something there

@Blindbird The interior of Ikea, of course, exists in numerous different dimensions at the same time, which is why if you walk through the bit leading from crockery to electronic items and then turn round and go back, it'll take you to another part of the store entirely - possibly even a different store.

@Jnei brb, gonna go look for the entrance to Narnia.
