The Gaming Store I used to work at in town has sadly closed down. The main store is about 30 or so minutes away from our house, and so we have closed our comics box with them.
Went to the other comic shop closer to our house (still in another city, but shorter time to get there).
I get my comics (FTR, I got : Executive Assistant Irish, Orchid, and one other EA issue, Grimm Fairy Tales, Dream Eater Saga Parts 4 & 5 (of 12), Traiblazer, and a few other titles - mainly all for me, with like one or 2 hubs would read also). I am a comic reader. I also have bewbs.
I go up to the counter to pay for the comics. (BG:We also used to have a box with them eons ago, but closed it because of the Gaming Store./BG)
So I say: "I'd like to pay for these comics and open a comic box. Either re-open the one we used to have or open a brand new one." (Turns out we had to open a brand new one with a new number and everything).
Unbeknownst to me, hubs had come up to stand next to me. The clerk, blinks at me from behind his glasses, turns to hubs and says "Really? You want to open a box?" Aiming the question at Mr. Rum.
And he confirms it. We open the box. Which is put in Mr. Rum's name. With Mr. Rum's e-mail address. However, all the titles are for me (and Child Rum, we're going to start getting DC Comics' Tiny Titans series and the Sonic comics - yes, we're teaching our child the joy of comics reading. ). Actually, one of the titles is one that Mr. Rum started to read and I became addicted to.
But what pissed me off was that he had to confirm with hubs first. And he kept looking at hubs for the comic titles even though I was talking and telling him the titles myself.
When I start to pick up the comics on a regular basis, I might have my name added to the box.
But really .... Since when did my husband have to confirm me wanting to open a comic box?
