I was in Walmart the other day (I try to avoid it) picking up a few things, including salt and pepper grinders. As I walked up to the shelves of spices I noticed a fellow student, who appeared slightly older than me, looking confused, sorting through the shelves. While I contemplated whether I should go with the black pepper grinder, or try the medley, his roommate walked up to him.
"Whatcha' looking for?" asked his roommate.
"Red pepper," he responded.
My thoughts staggered, and I was at a loss as to what to do. I found the idea of this situation even occurring highly amusing, to say the least. Do I tell him? Do I leave him searching? For some reason I can't explain, I walked away. I don't think I could have faced him seriously.

I got black pepper.
