Yesterday, buying champagne at Safeway.

Cashier: You’re using your debit card?  Fine.  And may I please see some I.D.?

Me: ......huh?

Cashier: I need to see some I.D., please.

Me: Oh.  Right.  How silly of me to forget.  And God Bless you.

Annoying Bozo in Line Next to Me: Aww, whatever, she’s just trying to rack up the compliments and gratitude in advance of 2004, aren’t you, hahahahahahaha.

Cashier: Listen, honey, I don’t care what you call it.  This ain’t the time of year I need to get socked with a $1,000 fine.

Me: Yeah, lay off her.  The nice, smart lady is just doing her job as she runs the best cash register in the entire city.
