Semi-grumpy but mostly good-natured RV store owner:  Yes sir.
Bo:  I need to have some propane tanks refilled, please.
Semi:  What size are they?
Bo:  Two 20-pound bottles.
Semi:  We don’t refill 20-pounders.  We exchange ‘em.
Bo:  Ah.  You promise they’re full?
Semi:  Nope.

Nathan:  Hey! How come he got a bigger brownie?
Bo:  Because we love him more.

Classmate (male) of mine:  Did you see the videos on (female classmate’s) page?
Bo:  No.  What kind of videos are they?
Classmate:  Mostly her singing in church.
Bo:  Oh.  (pause) Are there any of her pole-dancing?

    1. I’m running into witty merchants lately. Today I was at Advance getting a battery terminal connector for Lea’s van.

      Bo: “I got it tightened back down, but it’s definitely fatigued, and I figure it’ll slowly fail.”
      Advance Auto Parts guy: “Yeah, it will. You’re right to replace it.”
      Bo: “Incidentally, this one (holding package up) is ten times as robust as the OEM part.”
      Advance: “Yeah, but that one probably causes cancer in the state of California.”
