...and sometimes they just fall into the gorilla exhibit.
Add your own snarky comment to this or your "favorite" meme.
..what country can preserve it’s liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? let them take arms.

I agree with the main point this meme is trying to make, but there is one aspect of it that destroys its credibility.
No store would ever have that many registers open at the same time.

I'm just opposed to the idea that "If something is against my religion then you can't have it either."

I'm good with that.
I'm just opposed to "I don't care if its against your religion, I want it and you have to provide it."

C'mon people, we should all know the correct answer here is, "if it's against your religion, then why are you working here. Selling this product to me at an establishment you do not own is not a decision you are allowed to make. Go work somewhere else or open your own store where you don't carry this product."

I have to serve peanut butter sandwiches to kids with peanut allergies? Are you nuts?
BTW, funny you should change your avatar after having it for so long. Did you order a shirt.

It's not your job to determine if a kid has a peanut allergy.
No, I ordered the hat.

Where did I say I was determining IF a kid has a peanut allergy? In most cases, school classrooms, Sunday schools, and kids' parties you are already aware of who has the allergy.

You said, "I have to serve peanut butter sandwiches to kids with peanut allergies? Are you nuts?" How would you know?
