I was wondering what it was like for younger people to grow up with a hobby that was actually considered cool - I read a comic book in the lunch room in high school (1984) once and that was pretty much the end of the world.
I'd be willing to bet that more than a few of us here were pursuing this "trendy" hobby when this douchebag was nothing but a twinkle in his daddy's eye... whoever said that "this is why you should have hired the guy from the last panel" was spot-on.
I'll see your plastic Cap shield and raise you a flimsy metal one, but our nerf Mjolnirs will just have to duke it out and see which was better manufactured.
Being angle -EVERYTHING is trendy.

I've been accused of a lot of things, but being "trendy" is not one of them. Hmmm.

ReplyDeleteWow...I've been trendy all this time? Who knew...
ReplyDeleteThis is why you should have hired the guy from the last panel.
ReplyDeleteWow just imagine if you read super-hero comics on a iphone...you'd be SUPER TRENDY

ReplyDeleteYou have both? That is cool. No sarcasm. I'm actually jealous of this fact.
Why is he considered a jerk? What he said didn't sound especially jerky. Douchey, yes, but not jerkworthy.
ReplyDeleteGarth Ennis, is that you?
ReplyDelete@Jamaican Chicken: He accused everyone in the store of being like people who own iPhones?
