This is the best one of these I have ever heard for two reasons. Reason #1- He was most likely in his 40's and he was in the comic book store, yelling at his elderly mother and Reason #2- He has left me to forever wonder what constitutes 'good sweat pants'.
This is one of the best things I've seen in a while, and I'm dying to figure out which Boston-area comic book shop this is taking place in. Brilliant!
ReplyDeleteLove your blog.
ReplyDeleteIt brings back memories of the times I worked in a video store.
There was this one guy who was in there all the time and similar to you, I was one of two possible people working at any given time. At least once a week he'd ask me if we had any x-rated films (which we didn't). The answer was always no and he'd always end up renting some completely lame movie. Same process every week up until I left.
Ahhh, the memories...
His good sweatpants are the ones he wears when eating regular Cheetos, NOT Spicy Hots!
ReplyDeleteAnd 3. What pants should you run in if not Sweatpants? Running is the purpose of sweatpants.
ReplyDeleteThis is just exceptional. His whole life, implicit and explicit, in three sentences. Conflict, resolution, a giddy victory. I'm awed. Five stars.
ReplyDeleteI only wish the picture showed the sweatpants. We too shall always wonder.
ReplyDeletemoms got owned. hard.
ReplyDeleteI am more concerned about the bad sweat pants.
ReplyDeleteI'm appalled. I've never seen anything so beautiful in my life. I wouldn't be as overwhelmed if I was personally watching a panda give birth. While fighting an eagle.
