Why I love my local Post Office

[gnomi]

The following dialogue occurred between the postal clerk and me this evening:

Me: I'd like to mail this package.

Clerk: Does the package contain anything fragile, flammable, perishable, or harmful?

Me: No, just silly.

Clerk: Oh, that's fine. No extra charge for silly.

I grinned, she grinned, and we concluded my transaction.

My silly conversation of the day:

Guy who works at cafeteria across the street to his coworker: I'm waiting for the extended edition box set with all the extras that aren't in the other releases.

Me making a shrewd guess and joining the conversation already in progress even though I haven't the title of the movies they're talking about: Yeah, that's why I haven't bought Two Towers yet, either.

His coworker: Yeah, and right after they release that they'll announce a platinum or titanium or something edition with more extras.

Me: I'd say the "gold-pressed latinum edition," but that's another fandom.

First guy grins hugely while his coworker looks puzzled: I get and appreciate that, even if he doesn't know what you're talking about.
