Do you have certain types of customers, that you'd expect are book store specific, that you really hate dealing with? (Like, for example, the political book junkies but all they buy is Ann Coulter and Sean Hannity books and they have lots of opinions about them. I would hate those people)
I have a lot of those exact people, actually. They'll name drop Coulter or Glenn Beck, then want to tell me about how they've learned "the truth" from those types. I usually give them my deer-in-headlights look and go "Uh-huh...uh-huh..." a lot.Quote:

I did have a pet fish. He was a beta, and I don't even remember what I called him, so we'll call him Fluffy. Well, I would feed Fluffy and clean his bowl. I'd put him in a red plastic cup when I was "housekeeping" for him. Well, my late uncle's girlfriend decided she was going to get her smoke on in my father's house (while he was deployed overseas), but that she was going to use Fluffy's temporary housing for an ash tray.
:C That is so sad.
She was an evil, fish killing woman.

Spitz, I think it's important that we make Marsilia feel important in her own thread. I have my own postpad thread, it's a place I go to when I'm drunk and on Mello. I don't want to step into a thread with a specific subject and just start posting vague, barely connected thoughts and then claim that they are conducive to the subject at hand just because I say they are and question *your* logic in questioning mine.Quote:

That's actually tough for me to answer, since I think seeing anything you don't expect to see is interesting, even if it's a pretty mundane critter. My sister and I got right up in the middle of some dolphins playing off the coast of a beach we were visiting once, and I've seen deer on the edge of the highway down here (which is way rarer than when Zuul sees deer on the side of the road. Speaking of Z, she doesn't realize how dangerous it was to let me drive up there, since I was pretty fascinated by all the wildlife that was right freaking there.Quote:

Can you explain the Fermi Paradox in less than 100 words? That wikipedia article is way too long and is giving me a headache.
My ideal taco would have chicken and steak (so I wouldn't have to choose) prepared however they do it at Los Tres Amigos (or El Satillo). There would be just a sprinkling of lettuce and finely chopped tomato, then there would be onions. I love onions on my tacos. There would be yellow cheese and white cheese, and a little bit of that ranchero sauce they use at Taco Bell. As a side item, I would want your sister's chips and salsa, as I maintain that she makes the best salsa I have ever had the pleasure of dipping a chip into.Quote:
