toys 'r' us, friday, noon, mid-december, eleven days before christmas. everybody who has ever birthed a child is there. how many registers are open? two. of course, this is probably because they needed 50 workers out on the floor to answer all the black people who ask "how much do this cost?". are they like genetically programmed to not see price tags? i was about to open the nerf sniper rifle box in my cart (it has a scope on it, it's for my nine year-old, does this guarantee he will become a serial killer?") and start plugging the customers.
