Conversation at a Dunkin Donuts
Deb is on line at Dunkin Donuts. Little Boy and Mother stand beside Deb waiting for their order.
Little Boy: Why does it say that it’s America’s best coffee?
Everyone on line is impressed by Little Boy’s reading skills.
Mother: Because that is what Dunkin Donuts believes.
Little Boy: Oh. Why do they think that?
Everyone on line chuckles.
Mother: Because people in this world think silly things.
Everyone on line is silent.
Mother: Remember when you learned that people believe in silly things? Like Santa Claus or the Easter Bunny or…what else? I know you know this.
Little Boy: The Tooth Fairy.
Mother: Right.
Everyone on line is visibly sad.
Little Boy: Can I have donut?
Mother: No.
