Mama Lai rarely allows herself to indulge in very much, but lately she's had a weakness for expensive anti-aging creams. After running out of the cream two months after purchasing it, she returned to the make-up counter to pick up another jar. The make-up counter girl recognized Mama Lai and was surprised that she was back so soon. She lightly informed Mama Lai that the jar she bought was meant to last her six months or longer.
In an effort to save Mama Lai some money, she good-naturedly tried to demonstrate the amount that she should be applying to get more bang for her buck. Mama Lai took one look at the young, pretty make-up counter girl, laughed, and then admonished her:
"Thank you, but I have wrinkles all over and in places you didn't even know you could have wrinkles in. It's a terrible thing to be old."
