GROCERY STORE EXPRESS LINES

I know it's 4:00 in the afternoon on Sunday. And yes the NFL playoff game is getting ready to start. But I only need 3 things and I'll run through the express line. You know, 12 items or less.....WHATEVER!!!! That's right, I had some beer and a gift card and sure enough all the other lines are packed so I'm just gonna run through the express line; just as many people but alot less items. I always like to count the beeps. That way I'll know that everybody is following the 12 items or less rule. Two people in front of me I hear the 12th beep, right on the dot. Then I hear another and another, holy mackerel, "I guess they're too good to stand in the line made for them" I mumble to myself. I count a total of 25 beeps in all and I let out an audible sigh. I don't really care about the game, I'm not in a hurry or anything, the Chiefs aren't playing, I just hate people that think they don't have to follow the rules. I peek into the guy's basket in front of me and wouldn't you know it, I count 13 items, and that's only the ones I can really see. I'm thinking to myself, "I know this sonofabitch just heard me bitching about the guy in front of him, I guess he doesn't give a shit either". What can I do other than just stand there and shake my head? So that's what I do. I guess eventually I'll get my turn and sure it's probably still quicker than standing in the other lines but it just pisses me off that some people are above the rules!
