“Things I Was Thinking in Hot Topic After My 3-Year-Old Daughter and I Were Greeted by a Very Provocatively Dressed Salesgirl,” by Wayne Gladstone
So, is there, like, a backroom where you change for work, or do you walk around like that?
Would it be possible for me to see that room?
I used to have very long hair.
And an earring.
In fact, Trent Reznor and I went to Hebrew school together.
You know who that is, right?
And, oh, my daughter is my niece. No, not my niece. She’s an orphan I adopted to indoctrinate into the ways of the vampire.
Can you tell by the way I’m checking out this skull-and-crossbones key chain that I’m secretly dangerous?
I knew I shouldn’t have worn my Dockers today.
Pee on me.
from the incomparable McSweeney’s

It’s funny when people that are not the demographic of a store, walk into that store and then try to be funny about what it sells.
It’s like me walking into a Victoria’s Secret and making fun of the “pink”.
No pun intended.
