A man walked into the bookstore and was greeted with "There you are! I've been looking all over for you!" by a woman.

The man asked "Did you call me?"

"Yes, and I could hear your phone beeping, but I couldn't figure out where you were!"

"That's because my phone is in your purse."


Attention customers:

If you are looking for a book with a title like Secret Life of Saeed the Pessoptimist, please have some idea of how to spell the title, and don't continue to repeat the title even more quickly than before. Thank you!


I found out about this one a couple of minutes after I got to work today. We were scammed by a kid. I don't know how old the brat was - estimates range from 10 to 15, but there is no arguing about what he did. He took three books off the shelf and "returned" them for store credit. Cute, huh? Well, he's in for a surprise when he tries to use it because the manager on duty canceled it.


Another kid provided me with the laugh for the day. This little one (about three years old) had great fun running up and down the center aisle. The mother had no hope of keeping up with her. There was much playing and shrieking with delight, and then the mother had enough and decided to head home with the kid. Naturally, the little girl was the first at the front door. She then pointed imperiously at the cafe and yelled "WE NEED COFFEE!!!" Yeah, that's exactly what the kid needed.


In other news, I have gotten sick of the snark communities and the bitterness that seems to be behind the majority of the posts, and have decided to start my own humor community. So, if you like, please join i_laughed and post the things that make you laugh. I got one community off the ground, so let's see if I can do it again.
