Two little boys go into the grocery store. One is nine, one is four. The nine year old grabs a box of tampons from the shelf and carries it to the register for check-out.
The cashier asks, “Oh, these must be for your mom, huh?” The nine year old replies “nope, not for my mom.”
Cashier- “Well they must be for your sister then?”
Nine year old- “nope, not for my sister either.”
Cashier curious now- “Oh, not for your mom and not for your sister, who are they for?”
The nine year old says “They’re for my four year old little brother.”
The cashier is surprised -“Your four year old little brother??”
The nine year old explains: “Well yeah, they say on TV if you wear one of these you can swim or ride a bike and my little brother can’t do either of them!”
