"Have you seen all the other 'Aliens' movies?" a too-chipper teenaged cashier asks me, his voice cracking as it leaves his ADHD-riddled frame. "Why, yes, I have..." I respond, trying to let my near-silence  be a guide to him:
mindin' my own, bein' low-key. Throwing a drift for him to catch. Catch the drift. 
The drift missed. 
"This one picks up where the last 'Aliens vs. Predator' left off," he says, even more animated than before. 
"Great," I intone, in my best Steven Wright deadpan, "like a sequel..."
"Yeah!" Oblivious Boy says, "Except, this time, they've managed somehow to --" ... and the dude proceeds to give away part of the plot.
If you're going to work at a video store, shouldn't you NOT divulge spoilers??? 
So, I'm trying to watch this movie without thinking every 5 minutes about what he said.
. [Edited 4/20/08 12:50pm] i have to be careful not to give plot details away when im selling books, its a bit hard sometimes, when the book was really exciting  seems that i was busy doing something close to nothing, but different than the day before   | |

I used to work with a girl that asked me this: "Miguel. What is the difference between the Pacific Ocean and the Atlantic Ocean?"
This is me..... 
...but I told her. She's the same person that went to Cancun and came back all excited..... Her - "Oh my God I had so much fun Miguel!!!!!" Me - "Did you go see the ruins? Did you go into town where the locals are?" Her - "No! I spent the entire time at Senor Frogs. Oh my God, so much fun!!!"

Stupid woman with a little dog said to me, after just seeing a big dog leaving the animal hospital after having donated blood:
"Gosh, I never see any little dogs giving blood - don't little dogs hurt themselves too sometimes so they need blood?" Me:
"Ummm... you know little doggy blood isn't different from big doggy blood, right?"
Woman: "REALLY???? I'm so happy for my little [insertstupidlittledognamehere] now, he can get blood too." Please somebody kill | |

After running into gads and gads of dumbasses, I don't think dumb people really know how dumb they are. "A Watcher scoffs at gravity!" | |
