Trips Through the Sunlight

The Rice Pad.. in it's alternating glory.

There are strange people that go through South Jersey. I hate South Jersey.

Meet Exhibit A.

Exhibit A got into a conversation with Camel about life and such. I was barely paying attention until the phrase "there are reptilian aliens living amongst us" escaped from this idiot's lips.

There are reptilian aliens. They're called Cardassians. They only live in Star Trek, though.

I can't stand people's dumb-shit assumptions about general life.

Exhibit B.

Look closely. One of those stuffed animals have been rendered anatomically correct.

No, I didn't create the anatomically correct bunny.

Some dumb-shit kid did. He was giggling in the corner with his dumb-shit friend.

Har har har.

It's so fucking funny.

I've been undressing mannequins in department stores since I was three... hmm.

I don't come out of my apartment very often. Lately, when I do come out, I'm accosted by the bright sun and my eyes start to water. It seems that the sun that I used to rule has turned on me, perhaps in anger by the abandonment of it's Sun God. That or my vision perscription changed and I need to go to the doctor and get new contact lenses....

But when I do come out of the Rice Pad, I come across so many goddamned stupid people.

Example:

Back when I worked for Radio Shack(yeah fuck you, you made a lying sack of shit your CEO and you started losing money), I'd have customers looking for replacement batteries for their cordless phones. Here are a few facts to consider while purchasing cordless phone batteries. This may or may not be common knowledge.

1) Radio Shack employees make money out of commission.

1a) When a Radio Shack employee tells you that he cannot sell you a battery because YOU DON'T KNOW WHICH PHONE YOU HAVE, he isn't trying to blow you off. There are HUNDREDS of different manufacturer makes and models of cordless phones. Each one of those normally requires a different battery.

Trust me. He'd love to take your $10 for a battery Radio Shack paid 3 cents for. That's good commission.

2) You probably cannot tell which battery you need just by looking at them. Why? They all look the same. Except for the little plug in the end. They are shaped DIFFERENTLY.

3) Why do you still have a house phone?!

4) If your phone is yellowish in color, you should probably throw it away. It was more than likely white when you purchased it. Throw it out. Get a new one. Make it black this time. Tell the Radio Shack employee that. He'd love to take your $125 for a phone Radio Shack paid 3 cents for.

ugh

I hated retail. I hated the people who worked there too. Lying sons of bitches. All of them.

Actually, don't shop at Radio Shack. If you had half a brain, you can find anything you need online. For cheaper. Probably for what Radio Shack pays for them to sell to you fat lazy bastards who wouldn't know how to turn on a toaster.
