It's The Great Pumpkin Slapper, Charlie Brown

Today I felt like I was on Candid Camera. I was in the grocery store and among other items bought two large pumpkins. I plan to make pumpkin bread and pies with them. So I get in the check out line and this women in front of me turns around and smacks the pumpkins. She hits them with such gusto that they bounce like a basketball. She says let me ask you a question, how do you cut these? She caught me totally off guard by such odd behavior. I said " with a chainsaw like everybody else does." she gave me the strangest look and turned around. Honestly. How the hell does she think you cut them?
