Express or Local?

From today's Metro Diary in the NYT:

Dear Diary:

While my family and I were checking out at Fairway recently, another customer walked up to the cashier and asked if her line was the express line. The cashier replied that it was not.

My 5-year-old son, an experienced straphanger, turned to me and asked, “Is this the local line?”

Everyone within earshot had a laugh. Leslie Brown
