TV Quote of the Day (George Carlin, on ‘The Mystery of the Supermarket’)

“You know the nice thing about putting things back in the supermarket, when you return an item— you know where you put it, don’t you? You put it anywhere you want! They expect that. ‘Eh, put it anywhere, Marge.’ They don’t care, they don’t give a shit. They have guys who straighten that out—guys with purple fingers come around at midnight. In the morning everything is back. It’s the mystery of the supermarket.”—American stand-up comic and actor George Carlin (1937-2008), “George Carlin at USC,” originally aired Apr. 8, 1977, on HBO
