From a few months ago.
Customer: “Do you have Flash Gordon? With Buster Crabbe?”
Me: “Um…you mean the comic strips?” (seeing as how we’re a comic store and all)
Customer: “No, do you have Flash Gordon on video or DVD?”
Me: “No, I’m sorry, we don’t.”
Customer: “Oh, okay. Do you have The Lone Ranger?”
Me: “No, I’m sorry, we don’t have any of The Lone Ranger serials on video.”
Customer: “No, I meant the comic books. Do you have any Lone Ranger comics?”
Me: “Sure…” (I pull down a box) “…here you go.”
Customer: “Great…do you have any westerns?”
Me: “Yes, there are more western comics in that box there with The Lone Ranger.”
Customer: “No, I meant the movie serials.”
Me: “AAAAAAGH! QUIT CHANGING GEARS ON ME!”
(Well, okay, I really didn’t say that last bit.)
