annals of things I don’t understand

  1. boy (age 8 or 9) inspects a watermelon his mother has put in their cart and remarks that there is dirt on it and wants to know why. she doesn’t explain where watermelons come from.
  2. young woman putting packages of instant oatmeal in her cart, and then carefully adding their price to her total with a calculator. perhaps she is a researcher, but if she is just a frugal shopper, why is she buying that stuff?
