is same!
In a (demanded) return to the essential spirit of this site, let’s resume the bitching. It’s not all rainbows and unicorns over here. Well, it’s rainbows, but … nevermind. ;)
So JR and I are at Target, looking for kitchen storage. We see a nice bakers rack on display, and it’s on sale! We look at all the boxes, and the only ones we can find aren’t the same. The one on display has an entire bottom shelf that’s a wine rack. The picture on the boxes doesn’t. Hmmmm.
We stop a Target employee and ask if they have the wine rack one’s in back. She scans the sale tag, scans the box, (apparently deeming them a match) and says, “Is same.” We point out that the display has a wine rack shelf, the box doesn’t. The box has an enclosed shelf, the display doesn’t.
After a pause, there is much pointing from the display tag to the box, and much “Is same.”
There is pointing from our side at the difference in fine details. “The box one only has a hanging wine rack that holds 5 bottles. The display holds 10, PLUS the hanging 5. We must have 15!”
In an exasperated tone, the employee points the scanner at the sale tag (*beep*) and then at the box (*beep*), looks at us and says “IS SAME.” and walks away. JR and I just stand there, fuming (probably more fuming from me than from him) and I say loudly, “IS *NOT* SAME!”
There have been a lot of “Is same!” declarations in our house recently.

ah, Tarzhey. you continue to impress us from California to Texas.
you make that shirt, i buy one. but i hope it would also say “is same” somewhere.
Am happy.
Obviously you haven’t acclimated to the California lingo!
I looked it up….”is same” in CA actually translates to “you dumb-ass redneck”.
Who wouldda known?
