Clerk: “Um, sir, that doesn’t look like a banana. Are you sure you entered the right code?”

The jig is up. Run

Apologize profusely

[Rhetoric: Heroic 15] Convince the clerk you don’t know what fruits are
EVEN 58%
+1 You look terribly frazzled
This is a Red Check. It can not be retried
Rhetoric: [Heroic: Success] “Is this not a banana?” You say in the most genuine tone you can muster
Savior Faire: You may have been caught, but you managed to feign enough innocence to get trouble off your back
The clerk gives a dumbfounded expression
Clerk: “Uhm, no sir, that is an avocado, not a banana”
Half-Light: She is too terrified of your empty skull to properly correct you on this

The fact that things like this never occur to me as possibilities goes to show just how naive I am about how the world works
It’s all fun and games until you are banned from the local grocery stores .Loss prevention is pretty good these days. It’s the Internet though, they really aren’t stealing. It’s internet tough guy shit.
Most self checkouts use cameras and AI where I am.
Where I used to live, the self checkout didn’t even accept Google Pay.
Aw, that’s the best part. I love paying with my ridiculous smart watch that I didn’t need.
Well too bad you spent so much money on a watch that needs to be charged every day.
It was a stupid impulse buy, yes…
Oh these are the worst. I had an Apple watch Series 0 I got cheap from a friend. Was pretty neat, but the charging was annoying.
Now I have a Casio GBD-200 which gives me a few smartwatch features (notifications, phone finder, vibration) with a battery that lasts 1-2 years and since it’s a G-Shock I don’t have to worry about damaging it.
