  • Go buy your bras and panties somewhere else

    ...because I'm closed.

    Supervisor turned off my light and off course people kept coming. A lady was first, with just a giftcard. I gave her the benefit of the doubt--maybe she didn't see the light because she was one of those slightly confused little old ladies--and took her. She had trouble with the card reader because it is now the chip and PIN system, and she wasn't familiar. A lot of people do, and it only means 1 extra minute. And then the reader failed as it had been doing the last half hour, so I had to back up the transaction. But honestly, that's only even one more minute.

    Well, the dude behind her couldn't spare 2 extra minutes, so he bolted, leaving a pile of lingerie on the counter. Serves him right.

    Sarcasm dear, sarcasm. I’m well aware that dealing with civilians in any capacity will skin your faith in humanity alive, then pickle anything that remains so as to watch it shrivel up into an immortal husk thus reminding you of how dead inside you now are.

      "Lacy things, the Wife is missin',
      Didn't ask, her permission,
      I'm wearing her clothes,
      Her silk pantyhose,
      Walkin' 'round in women's underwear!"

      Love that song. DH introduced me to it last christmas, along with Weird Al's christmas at ground zero and Grandma got run over by a reindeer. (And the parody Grandpa got run over by a beer truck)

      Love me some parody christmas songs.

                  One of my husband's former classmates posted on FB a version called (I think) Grandma Got Molested by the TSA. It was pretty funny but kinda sad, too.

                      Is a parody of a parody a serious song?

                          One is a childish fantasy that often engenders a lifelong obsession with its unbelievable heroes, leading to an emotionally stunted, socially crippled adulthood, unable to deal with the real world.
                          The other, of course, involves orcs." -- John Rogers
