Lio by Mark Tatulli for February 03, 2016

I think those things belong in a Costco, not a normal grocery store.

just tell her it’s for his son Lio.

She could just as well be smirking at the way he dresses.

Must be in Walmart.

Sons never abide an old dad’s flirting with young cashiers.

Lio is going to spend the afternoon sitting in The Corner of Shame, without his friends (is Ishy still in the bathtub?), if poor Dad has any spunk….

…with just enough of the bar code scratched off to require a price check.

Sorry sir.

Could’ve been worse: the jumbo size of Viagra would’ve been even more embarrassing!

Wait till Liō gets a case of the runs. He won’t be laughing then.

He’s going to be in a real bind.

It’s about time Dad gave Lio a good “talking to” firmly placing palm of hand to bottom.

for added measure he should have including a pack of adult diapers…with no leaks

Could have been worse. Could have been Depends.

And that is precisely why self checkout lanes have been created.
