Me: “Did you find everything you were looking for?”
Customer: “Yes, unfortunately. I’m really not looking forward to reading these.”
Me: “Oh, why not?”
Customer: “Well, I’m an English professor. Every time I reference low forms of literature, I always use Twilight as the example. Today a student asked if I’ve actually read them, and I had to say no. They demanded that I do.”
(He hangs his head in shame.)
