The things we say.

I've payed close attention to the things people say to me in passing. I've found that rarely, given the context, do these things make any sense.

Me: That it for you?
Guy: Sure.
Me: Sweet, $4.34.
Guy: Cheese.

And with that, he hands me the cash, takes his change, and leaves.

Cheese? Why?

Nevermind.

Phillipa beat me to it. Btw, I'm a complete stalker, as I've followed your blog from the site. . wait, can I mention this, or will it have you banished into Oblivion again?

In any event, cheese, jeeze, cash back, gas bag. . same thing ;)

It could have been "cheers". I say that sometimes as a thank-you. If you say it fast, or with an accent, it could sound like "cheese".
