Confessions of a porn store clerk

If you take the time to read these webpages you will not regret it. They are probably two of the funiest things on the internet and they pretty accurately depict working in retail.

ENJOY!!!!


(cross posted into the retail group as i thought they would get special enjoyment out of this.)

"I'd like to buy this game."

"Very well then, that will be $45.60 with tax. Also, do you have a memory expansion for your Nintendo 64? Perfect dark requires it."

"I do."

"Are you sure? It's one of these units that plugs into here."

Gord proceeds to show the customer what he's talking about as the customer doesn't look so bright by holding a Nintendo 64 up and pointing to the memory expansion slot.

Customer leaves, returns with parent. Speech repeats with mother.

They leave content.

Next day, the customer returns.

"This game doesn't fit my machine."

Gord plugs it into his Nintendo 64.

"Seems to fit into mine. Does your machine work with other games?"

"Yes, see?"

<Dramatic Pause>

"Sir, that is a GameBoy Advance."


comedic genius, if I was capable of laughter...

Although I've got to say that the second one is amusing, but it's rather silly how it's basically this guy retelling anecdotes but making himself look really quick-witted and snazzy. I'm sure he's been rendered speechless by stupidity before. Dammit!

I have a friend that used to work in the local mom & mom video shop, and he used to get in trouble for racking the J. Edgar Hoover Bio pic in the GLT section.

There is no earthly reason I should care so much, and it drives me nuts that I do. I am a pacifist. I like to think of myself as a nonviolent and gentle person. I have actually fantasized about knocking Mr. Pig to the ground and kicking him. Once, when he was being particularly obnoxious, I had a flash of an image: Me putting a foot on Mr. Pig's chest, shoving a gun in his mouth, and blowing his brains across the New For Sale section. It frightened me, but I enjoyed it.


ha hahah,oh mercy! the second one is a delight!
