Speaking the Common
 

Today, at the video rental store, as I was dropping off 'Pineapple Express', (it's ok, if your easy to please) I actually heard a man (wearing what appeared to be a custom-tailored suit, and wearing it well I might add) say these exact words:

"Where do da pornos be at?"

:right:

One loud "Hah!" escaped my lips. Couldn't help it.

Also, a man renting porn at ten in the morning, that's a man with a plan right there.:jagoff:

I agree. The proper term would be "porn."

;)

pr0n.
And it's right there on his computer... what is this 'video rental store' thing?

I was thinking the same thing! One doesn't need to go sneaking into the room behind the curtain anymore, then walking out real quick-like in case a relative is in there renting the REAL Free Willy. :lol:

Then again, that guy didn't seem to care who knows he wanted to know where they keep the pr0ns.

It's free, right on your computer!

Maybe he only knows how to use a DVD player :help:

Maybe he enjoys making people notice when he's getting some porn. Kinda like an exhibitionist.

Maybe he's self-promoting, because he be in da pornos.

Did you axe him if he was in da pronos?

I didn't axe him nuffin. Maybe it was a big day for him. He did get all dressed up. Maybe the doc finally scripped him some lil blue pills.

maybe he sells them?

Maybe it's his wedding night. Explains the suit.

Maybe he was just messing with people

There is an NLP exercise where you have to go into a shop and ask for something that they obviously don't sell with complete conviction. For example go into a hairdressers and try to order a pizza. I had a disagreement with an NLP Practioner about the validity of the exercise.

So maybe he was trying a new spin on this, and just altering his accent so he could go back another day and not be recognised.

That could be, although I might just go and try to order a pizza from the nail place just for kicks now.

Order a porno from da pizza joint.

I can't believe no one mentioned that the guy wearing the nicely tailored suit could have been a pimp. Maybe he left his feather boa in the car? Maybe they are his training videos for all of his other hoes?

Maybe he's married and doesn't dare download pr0n at home?

That sure sounds like a boring marriage....

When I worked at a CD store that also sold used DVDs we often had customers come in seeling or asking to buy "Flicks"... they meant the porn we kept in the filing cabinet behind the counter. All I can figure is the folks that buy/ rent porn for whatever reason either do not have the means to watch it online or are not willing to take the risk. Looking at porn online can not only lead to viruses of the computer variety, but if you don't know how to clear your browsing history and you have a computer savy spouse you may be afraid you'll be caught... or perhaps the computing device they own belongs to the company for which they work and they cannot risk being caught with porn on that device... who knows

I think I'm going to dominoes soon.

That's so sad.:(
