Some people are surprisingly lacking in it.
The other day, I reluctantly went shopping with my aunt, because I needed knew lead, and she was the only ride to the store.
We were in the frozen section with the dairy and such, and she was talking to herself about how they needed cottage cheese, and that she didn't see any.
So I pointed to the wall of shelves that were filled with different brands of cottage cheese, that we were literally standing right in front of.

So I pointed to the wall of shelves that were filled with different brands of cottage cheese, that we were literally standing right in front of.
She then pointed to a brand and said " I usually get this kind, but all they have are the small ones." refering to one of the sections of the shelf that was empty. She then held up the off=brand version and told me that it was the size she usually got.
3 seconds later I picked up one of the bigger ones and said " This one?"
She said " No, I usually get teh bigger ones, but there are out."
It was the biggest one. The EXACT same size as the off-brand cottage cheese she had mentioned.
I could not convince the woman that just because it was on a shelf higher than it usually is, didn't mean it was a smaller size.
But she just could not comprehend that.
It was so fucking frustrating.
