How about a nice steaming cup of SHUT UP instead?!
Ug. If one more sour-faced customer comes up to me with their crank on about the fact that we don't have Unfit for Command in yet, I swear to Goddess, I am going to have to smack a bitch. No, we don't have it yet. Yes, it is on order. No, it is not a liberal conspiracy. All bookstores really care about is making money. That is why we carry books by Ann Coulter, Ben Shapiro and the rest of the rightwing nutjobs who couldn't find their assholes with a map, sir.
Turns out the idiot authors started publicizing the book before the publishing house had them printed, so they are scrambling to meet the "demand" for the book. This knotty old lady came in today and was so very rude about the fact that we did not have the book. I am beginning to realize that the only people who are willing to pay for that book really are bitter, twisted assholes with nothing better to do than wallow in their own hateful rhetoric. I mean, I enjoy reading about what an idiot Bush is, but 99% of the shit I read is TRUE. Also, Kerry is not a perfect man. I am sure you could find books written by people who are a little more mentally balanced that actually present a rational case about why he might not be good for the America conservatives want to live in. I respect that. I don't respect running out to buy a book written by people who are obviously lying, just so you can snicker and shove it in the face of anyone who will stand still enough for you to catch them. Grow the fuck up and get over yourselves, for crying out loud.
I wish someone would create a nice, neat list stating all the factual errors and history of all of the contributors to that book so I could sneak it in the bags of all the people who buy the book. Of course, I seriously doubt purchasers of that book will have an open mind, so it will probably be a waste of paper. I am educating the people I work with about it, however, just in case they get questions about it from middle-of-the-road customers. I am also doing my best not to argue with people who come in looking for it. I should get some candy or pesos for that, my friends.
For real.
