Home Front: Culture Wars
"But weÂ’re saving that spot..."
2009-10-25
A tiny, lead-free skirmish in the culture war.

A taste:


Once again (because we were slammed with customers) I offer to show her the section and she is bitching the whole way about how the womenÂ’s studies section should be near the front of the store because itÂ’s so important and how this authorÂ’s book should be on display because sheÂ’s doing a signing tour in California right now and sheÂ’s a NEW YORK TIMES COLUMNIST!!

Well, we get there and we have no copies. She flips her shit over it and repeats how wonderful this writer is and how we should all be required to read her crap and then says “Why don’t you have 900 copies here?!?! You have plenty of room! Her book should be displayed all over the store to inspire women everywhere about what they can do!”

I had to.

I know it was wrong but what can you do when the set up is that perfect?

Read on for the punchline
