Another day at The Record Exchange.
Dramatis Personae:
A Fine Music Patron.
Dick.
Myself.
A Fine Music Patron: Do you have the new whatever-it-was-that-just-came-out-I-can't-be-arsed-to-remember?
Dick: Yeah.
A Fine Music Patron: I'll have that.
Dick: (I'm choosing to omit the usual speech he made of people being unworthy to buy these records for the sake of everyone's sanity.) That'll be £15.95.
A Fine Music Patron: That's ridiculous!
Dick: (He's smirking now.) I never said this wasn't a ripoff, I just said we had it.
A Fine Music Patron: Your prices are too high!
Dick: (He enjoys making them go away. I don't understand how he makes a living.) Yeah, they are.
A Fine Music Patron: ...
Myself: £15.95, please.
This establishment believes in humiliation and abuse. And Of course I mean that the kindest way possible.
