Best movie that induces feels is the Before Trilogy. I bawled like a baby during Before Sunset.

Why are customers so dumb? A coworker friend told me a story about how someone sent in a customer complaint because we don't sell pagers anymore.
Speaking of TDM recommendations, I just finished The Mote In God's Eye a few days ago. After thinking about it, I liked it, but was somewhat let down from the hype. My two main problems were:
The weird social politics. Sally saying "Good girls just don't have sex", and that she would be a spinster. Normally that would just be minor, but it actually played a fairly big role in the plot and thus stuck out.
Despite everything, the aliens still just don't seem alien enough to be a "realistic" first contact novel.

I feel like dragon may be overstating it.
"Are you color-blind, too, Vincent? It's silver. Jerome Morrow was never meant to be one step down on the podium. With all I had going for me, I was still second best."
It's not lame. The central message is a bit ridiculous if you take it to heart. But the movie on the whole is pretty good, and in terms of consistency of tone and emotional impact it is pretty awesome.

Someone asked me at the store I work at why we don't sell Walmart's store brand stuff.
...because we aren't Walmart?
She was actually pissed about it.

Ah. Carry on, then.
I just had the funniest customer come in. He got a parking ticket so my manager offered to cover it but just as long as he knew that there was signs showing you can't park in our stalls and go elsewhere which is exactly what he did. He started throwing a fit and when my manager asked for his name to get rid of the ticket, the customer tried to rip it in my managers face but failed because it's plastic :lol
I swear he almost had a heart attack attempting to rip that ticket. He then threw it at my manager and yelled "EAT IT" and then stormed out.

Well that takes me back to about 1999. Hated that philosophy class. Stupid lecturer was way too in love with the sound of his own voice. Can't help you, sorry. Good luck.
What the fuck? Other the the hilarity of the response, why would you get pissed at someone for offering to cover the ticket?

I also really wanted to use the word tsundere. GAF taught me that word.
know that feel bro. although I really enjoy my philosophy classes in most cases. but systematic/anal-ytic stuff like sell-arse was never my cup of tea.
well, don't cry for me GAF, I'm already dead.
:|
I have no idea but the guy was clearly nuts and sadly we get these people all the time. They freak out even when we've agreed to void their tickets. It's such a bizzare reaction but this one just took it to a whole nother level of hilarious.

There was this one guy who came into the store and asked me "do you know USB?" I told him "well we've got some things that use USB ports, if that's what you're asking."
"DO YOU KNOW USB!?"
"Um...what kind of USB device would you like to know about?"
*shakes his head* "You work at Best Buy, and you don't know USB??" *leaves in a huff*

One thing that I learned from uni is that English majors ( including me) never read the material. Maybe a glance or to before class.
