This book has been shit since the 7th issue."<br /><br />Well, the store clerk (of the snob variety) got all pissed and butted his head in with the retort "you should let him make up his OWN mind. Countdown is essential DC Comics reading right now."<br /><br />I said "this is MY BROTHER, and I'll recommend him to read whatever the fuck I want, and Countdown isn't going to be it."<br /><br />Store clerk goes "well there's a lot of good stuff in Countdown, that's all I'm sayin'" as he turned back to stocking the shelf.<br /><br />I said "no-one would recommend Countdown to anyone, no matter how many copies are on the shelf." Snob-clerk had no retort. <br /><br />When we left, my brother said that it was awesome how I handled "the loser."<br /><br />Shop snobs ain't got nothing on me!M.j.https://www.blogger.com/profile/06671083730225027721noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6699725030207250961.post-83028932525145489372012-03-13T22:06:46.541-04:002012-03-13T22:06:46.541-04:00You're stealing my Vinyl Fridays!!!

She's a spinner for sure.<br /><br />As for this record store of yours, I want to go when we are up there and i will take those snobs to school. I love nothing better than out-snobbing a snob. ;)M.j.https://www.blogger.com/profile/06671083730225027721noreply@blogger.com
