  • Grotesque at it's Best

    I am a comic book geek, and I thought I would share this story with you, it's from another forum I'm on and it was about people who don't bathe very often.

    I actually kicked a guy out of my local comic shop for being grotesque. I've known the shop owners since I was 12, and we're pretty good pals. During this event, the guy who works behind the register there is very nice, but he's very sensitive and non-confrontational. The young woman working there during the event, who is in college, and is very quiet and very shy talks only to customers when they're checking out, or to me and a couple of others she has now known for a couple of years.

    When this guy came into the shop we had to open the doors and turn the fans and the air conditioning as high as possible, but you could still smell this guy. He then proceeded to burp, and break wind as loudly as possible, and giggle about it afterwards. The guy was wearing black shoes that used to be white, sweatpants that were covered in stains of various substances, a tshirt two sizes to small for his XXXXXL frame, glasses that looked like they were used for a petri dish, unwashed hair, obviously didn't brush teeth ever, crusty eyes, unshaven, had dirty streaks on his arms and back of neck.

    Well, his funk didn't get him kicked out, it was the fact that he kept following the girl around the store, getting so close his belly kept touching her on the elbow, forearm, etc. The last straw was when she was filling the comics on the bottom row, she was kind of squatting with her feet below her, and her rump a little in the air, he walked up behind her, and got close enough behind her that his crotch touched her rear end.

    She let out a scream as if the devil himself touched her, I ran over and grabbed the guy by the back of shirt, grabbed his right arm, locked it behind him, and walked him over to the door and pushed him outside. He started to scream at me, but the guy working the register picked the phone up and was getting ready to call the police. The nasty guy saw this and walked away, I haven't seen him since.

    I talked to the girl, and what really scared her was the guy had an erection, and that's what had actually touched her rear end. So, after being the hero for about five minutes, I went out with her a couple of times, but it didn't work out, but she's still an awesome friend.

      That is so gross. God, I would've seen if he gotten into a car and got a license plate or something. That poor girl.

        What I'm wondering is why the fat, unwashed slobs think that the girls are going to be all over them...

          *shudders* That is soooo distugsting. I'm half-surprised the girl doesn't have permament mental damage. Though you do have to be one tough cookie to be female and work in a comic book/gaming shop. I'm sure you get used to the "gamer funk" at some point, but it's still got to be trying on your nerves sometimes.

            These are the type of people you wonder (or try not to) what their house is like.

              Add a pompus braggart attitude and the ability to look down at everyone else, and I know exactly who you're talking about.

                Why is it that people who have this level of personal hygiene think they are God's Gift to the Universe? I don't like to judge people or armchair psycho-analyze, but I personally think a good portion of this kind of person suffers from Bipolar Disorder.

                  I'm so glad my comic book guy doesn't let people like that into his store. That is completely disgusting. His stench would have gotten him kicked out if I worked at that store.

                    I would love for my local shop to kick out these kind of people. But I've also that that it always seems the people with the least amount of bodily hygiene, tend to have the least amount of verbal/social hygiene.

                    The people I've seen that are like this constantly curse, with every other word being foul, ie "F-ck this F-cking comic book, the main character is a F-cking F-g, if I wanted to read about F-gs, then I'd pick up F-g Man and Throbbin!"

                    With apologies to those who might have found that offensive, I actually had someone tell me this, over the comic book called The Authority.

                      Why must geeks like this give the rest of us bad names?!
                      I mean, I'm a queen geek girl, I love Doctor Who, Stargate, Farscape etc. I watch anime and read manga. One of my favorite book(s) is Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy.

                      One of my favorite things to do? Take showers. Nothing is better and more relaxing than a long hot shower. And the few times I can't get round to having a shower I sure as hell don't draw attention to myself.

                      And that guy is damn lucky it wasn't me he tried that trick with or he would have had a boot to the balls

                        Interesting reaction to that comic. I haven't gotten to read that as much as I'd like (now that I have money maybe I can catch up on it ) but honestly, considering that the "f-cking f-gs" in that comic could probably destroy human civilization if properly motivated, I could care less about sexual preference. In fact, continuing off topic, that's one of the things that I LIKE about the comic; the Authority may be a very unusual family, but damn if they aren't entertaining.

                        And on topic...I think my local store would have kicked the guy out as soon as he set foot in the store, too. And if he managed to stay in, the owner (who I'd guess is not much older than his 30's) keeps a katana in the store, and if the creep had pulled that stunt on his co-worker I have no doubt it would have been used. Honestly, if a person actually is attractive, then little ego trips like that might be understandable, if totally unacceptable and inviting violence upon their person...but when they're projecting a repulsion field twenty feet around them?
