(Wraps brick in bacon)

[RetailWorkhorse]

I SMELL BACON!

*Noms on brick'd bacon*

This bacon is really crunchy....

Funnily enough, meat products don't get asked for.

Bricks and building supplies however...

Consider yourself asked (and bugged and pleaded and drooled on).

I'm still trying to figure out "frozen parsnips".

[Betweenshades]

You don't sell illegal drugs? That's really disappointing.

ETA- What the fark are travel plugs???

[underemployeed]

Travel plugs, IE if your in the US most things are 120Volt at 60Hz but over seas they use 220V at 50Hz and completely different prongs on the plug.

I notice "Myself" is on neither list, you might want to add that to one side or the other as I'm sure it has came up you just blocked it out (I have a feeling I know where it belongs of course I guess there are levels, you might be willing to sell you time punching SCs in the face. But not doing the things they prefer)

Aaaah, we (or at least my family) refer to those things as Plug Adaptors. Travel Plugs make sense.

"Hi, I came in for a key ring but while I'm here, you don't happen to have any sofas, do you?"

[Ironclad Alibi]

"Hi, I came in for a key ring but while I'm here, you don't happen to have any sofas, do you?"

And I want that sofa set for $300.

"you don't happen to have any sofas, do you?"

YOU just walked through the entirety of the store, did you SEE a sectional in your travels?

[RetailWorkhorse]

And I want that sofa set for $300.

Dude, I don't even have to CLICK ON THE LINK.

Kus' story gave me nightmares.... hey, anyone seen him lately? He quit posting on Mom's bus forums. Haven't heard from him since Jan when he was planning on visiting EQ and I.

Thankfully never had that one - not the kind of person who would be asked that! - but my coworker S once had an old guy come up to her and utter the line:

"How about I go get some bananas, then after work we go and have some FUN!"

I hid behind the desk laughing at her total face. And then rescued her - I'm not completely evil!
