    Except they should be ashamed for carrying Twilight, but not for the same reason.
    But, they're legally required to carry Twilight.

    Yep... Sturgeon's Law.

          I wonder if it was RPG guides. I've gotten some strange looks purchasing my Vampire and World of Darkness core books.

              Heck, I would've wandered up, slapped my books on the counter and leered at her and if she asked, I would've said, "I am Satan, how may I corrupt you today?"

                I have a name tag on my desk at work that say "HI! My name is Satan". I made it up when my daughter told me she was the spawn of Satan.

                  SC: It's bad enough that you sell books on <whispers> s. e. x. </whispers>, but the Devil is real!
                  So the devil is real, but sex is not?

                      I've been reading "White Witch, Black Curse," on the bus. No one has asked for the empty seat beside me. Hmmm. This could work out very well. I'll just transfer the dust jacket to my other books and have lots of room for all my crap on the perpetually empty seat next to me!

                          A couple of friends and I once amused ourselves by swapping the Fantasy and Religeon signs around, we had too much time on our hands.
                          If I dropped everybody who occasionally said something stupid from my list of potential partners, I wouldn’t even be able to masturbate

                              There's no reason to pull a half-assed stunt like that. Why not go whole hog and move the New Age books to Nature and Ecology, and put the books on advanced physics and its relation to eastern mysticism under Humour? Cookies (chocolate macadamia nut macaroon oatmeal peanut butter squares) for reference.

                                Mostly because the employees stopped us after that.
