so there i am loitering the isles of blockbuster looking for a good movie when some guy and his girlfriend enter, whom i went to high school with.
we're in the same isle and he insists on putting every movie down for the most trivial reasons. i succeed at tuning out his inane droning until he comes across a movie he doesnt quite agree with. before i can see the video he complains about he yells, loud enough for the whole store to hear: "ya see, this is why are country is going to shit. and people wonder whats wrong with the world today, cuz of nasty shit like this." and he walks off.
curious as to what the sole reason for the worlds corruption could be, i walk over to the video. it happened to be a gay film with a picture of two men holding eachother on the cover. suprisingly i wasnt shocked by his close-mindedness. but i was still bothered by it. i try to forget about his openly verbal bash and accusations, until he picks up "boys dont cry" and exclaims "oh waa, another gay movie about a fag who gets killed."
at this point i wanted to resort to some sort of physical violence. perhaps involving castration? sprinkled with some profanity of course. but i knew that by going about it the wrong way would just make him hate gays even more. but i didnt have time to think of something witty that would get my point across because just as quickly as he entered, he exited.
