very carefully

I was at Costco the other day (surprise!) and overheard a guy in line asking another guy in line (I'm assuming they were acquainted), "How are they going to ring this up?"

The other guy said "Very carefully . . ."

Don't you hate it when people say that? Completely unhelpful. And maybe untrue.

I'm a little late on this one, but yes, I really, really hate that. I also hate when people say things like, "How could you not love that face?" as a comment on a baby picture, or "How could you not love this recipe?" etc. I always feel very accused . . . I never said I didn't!

(Also, my word verification for this comment is "angste," which feels appropriate.)
