Whiteguy: Can I get one of those Bic lighters?
(Cashier rings up one lighter.)
Cashier: $1.93, please.
Whiteguy: What! That's so expensive! You guys think pretty highly of your lighters, huh?
Cashier: To be fair, it is the ultimate convenience in man-made fire, which allowed our species to take over the planet from all the other animals.
(long pause)
Whiteguy: You know, when you put it that way, two bucks doesn't seem like that much to not have to rub two twigs together.
