The express lane. Ten items or less. Sounds simple, right? A promise of efficiency. But then you get in line, and what happens? Someone’s got *eleven* items. Or twelve. Or they’ve got ten items, but one of them is a giant bag of dog food that takes up the space of five normal items. It’s a lie! It’s a betrayal of the express lane’s very ethos! It’s not about the count, it’s about the *spirit* of the ten-item rule. And then you’re stuck, watching them meticulously bag their mountain of groceries, while your two humble items sit there, mocking you with their simplicity. It’s an anarchy of convenience!
