Tom had only one job: pick up cat litter before heading home. Confidently, he entered the store and scanned the hanging aisle signs. “Pet Supplies – Aisle 9.” Easy enough.

He rushed to the aisle, grabbed the first big bag he saw, and made it to the checkout in record time. Feeling proud, Tom sent his wife a text: “Mission accomplished!”

Minutes later, his phone buzzed with her reply: “Tom, WHY did you buy birdseed?”

He froze, looked at the receipt, and burst out laughing. Turns out, he had mistaken the colorful parrot on the bag for a quirky brand of cat litter. Back to Aisle 9 he went—this time double-checking the sign with a grin.
