I had to go and buy a couple books for my class today and I ended up with a few additional items:
-- Bush's War (a summary of what Bush was thinking)
-- It's You Not Me (a compilation of short stories written by women scorned)
-- A birthday card with all the recently dead presidents on the front
I get to the check out and the clerk has is head down and is intently practicing writing Hanja (not paying attention). So I say "Oh is that Hanji" just to notify him that I've been standing right in front of him for 10 seconds. I know that doesn't seem like a long time but I wanted to get home at some point in time.
He says "no, it's Korean".
I let it go (Hanja is the written Korean Language) - again, for the want to eventually arrive at home.
Then he picks up the first book and holds it up next to his head and makes the goofy George Bush face, and proceeds to tell me why he thought he was a bad president. This lasted for another 10 very long seconds -- until he picked up the Birthday card.
He gives me the disertation about the birthday card. At this point I'm just waiting for him to give me the commentary about the woman scorned book and I'm thanking God I wasn't picking up a book on sexual disfuntion.
He deducted, from my purchases I was a man hating conservative fuck. Even at Barnes and Noble I get abused.
And since when was being conservative an insult. Hmmm... I only see the jobless rate increasing under the free wheeling spending plan of "THE OTHERS".
