Friend #1: Is there a Chase ATM nearby?
Friend #2: I don't think so. Let's just stop at a gas station.
[We stop at a gas station and withdraw money. After driving for less than a block, we pass a Chase bank.]
Friend #1: Great. Why didn't we stop here?
Friend #2: I didn't know that was here.
Friend #1: How could you not have seen that? That's like the biggest Chase sign I've ever seen.
Me: Thanks for making us pay the ATM fees, asshole.
