Trixie: But
it's from Italy.
Customer: It's
a sausage.
Trixie: An
imported sausage.
Customer: You
mean, a high-priced sausage.
Trixie: Buy
it for a special occasion.
Customer: What kind of special occasion requires a
sausage?
Trixie: Uh....
Customer: Please.
Don't answer that.
Trixie: What
about a nice cheese?
Customer: I'm
lactose-intolerant.
Trixie: What?
Why you should be ashamed!
Customer: Of
what?
Trixie: Of
being intolerant.
Customer: Of
lactose?
Trixie: Yes.
Why should Lacts' toes be any worse than anyone else's?
Customer: Lacts?
There's no such things as Lacts.
Trixie: Of
course there is. I saw a National Geographic special on them once. They live up
north and ride around on reindeers' backs.
Customer: That's
Lapps.
Trixie: Reindeer
don't have laps.
Customer: The
people. The people who live up north.
Trixie: The
people? Well of course they do. Of course the Lacts have laps.
Customer: There's
no such thing as Lacts!
Trixie: Oh
yeah? Then how come you hate their toes?
Customer: I
don't hate their toes, or their armpits, or their earlobes. I can't hate them
because they don't exist. I'm talking about milk.
Trixie: Milk?
You mean reindeer milk?
Customer: Any
milk. Dairy products. I can't handle dairy.
Trixie: Wow.
I'm so sorry.
Customer: Don't
worry about it.
Trixie: So
are you in MA?
Customer: MA?
Trixie: Milkaholics Anonymous.
Customer: Presuming
there is such a thing - which I'm going to take a wild guess there isn't - why
would I be in it?
Trixie: People
who can't handle alcohol go to AA. You can't handle milk. So wouldn't you go to
MA?
Customer: I
think I better get going.
Trixie: Oh
no you don't. You haven't bought anything yet. Anyway, what's your hurry?
Customer: I've
got ... uh... Oh, I've got to get to my MA meeting.
Trixie: Oh.
Sorry. Can't be late to that.
Customer: Right.
You know how it is. One day at a time.
Trixie: I
understand. Anyway, think about that sausage, OK?
Customer: Right.
I'll be sure to do that.
Trixie: Unless
you're sausage-intolerant, too.
Customer: You
know, I just may be.
