Not everybody is in a bad mood this shopping/holiday season. (Mods, I couldn't see that this fit in sightings, since it isn't bad. Please move if it should be elsewhere.)
Wally World was busy, there being only a few shopping days left. One harried-looking woman was pushing a full cart around the toy department. She was clearly searching for someone, and getting more exasperated by the minute. Finally, she stops in the middle of the aisle, puts her hands on her hips, and calls out:
"John?"
Silence greets her call. She quirks her lips and tries again... a little differently.
"MARCO!"
A resounding reply rises from nearly every aisle within earshot: "POLO!"
Then we hear coming from the electronic department.
"Marco?"
A cheerful "POLO!" comes from the aisles around her again, along with someone in electronics trying to sputter out "Polo" between fits of laughter. Apparently, "John" and his wife weren't accustomed to people joining in on their little game.
