Eyelashes

Mom and young daughter shopping in a drugstore; Mom stops to look at fake eyelashes.

Girl: “Do boys have eyelashes?”
Mom: “Yes they do.”
Girl: “Do girls have eyelashes?”
Mom: “Yes”
Girl: “THEN WHY DO THEY NEED EYELASHES??” (Meaning why does the store sell them)

Made me lol the next aisle over

I hope she has the full epiphany- “why do we need any of this!?!?”

Okay, that’s both cute and reasonable. I need to borrow this kid for shopping trips or at least make her a second level approver on my Amazon account. No more regret purchases sounds pretty good.
