“As easy as taking candy from a baby”

Probably originated by someone who never had to take candy from a baby.

There I was today at Costco. And at the checkout lane I was behind a little Asian couple with the most adorable little Asian baby who was bear hugging a giant jar of peanut M&Ms.

We start to check out and that baby is doing damn ninja moves to keep the mother from taking that jar. I heard him scream “nooo.”

Meanwhile the Costco employees are trying to sneak up behind the baby to wring up the jar from behind.

Then the baby tries to DJ Metcalf the mother. Solid right hook.

Finally they trick the baby away from the jar and the parents decide they no longer wish to buy the candy
