Perhaps I'm overly sensitive on that count; for years, the owner of a retail store I visited on a weekly basis used to insist on making that joke. Over and over and over and over and over... it wasn't at each and every visit, but he had at least a 75% hit rate over the span of at least five years. (In actual fact, the numbers are probably kinder than that, but it certainly felt like it was that much too often.)
