I was walking outside the store and he said "Haven't seen you around in a while." I looked at him funny and it took a second to remember that he's the dude I bought the Xbox 360 from back in June that I traded in a month later. He even said "I hope you come buy and buy more games" back in June when I bought it.

So he asks me if I want to buy anything and I explained gaming was mostly in my past. He said something like "Maybe someday..?" or something to that effect and I repeated my stance.

It was so obvious and scummy what he was doing but I remained cool and acted normal. I'm not a rude person and I get he's doing his job but we're not even in the fucking store and I'm on my way home from school.

I explained to him that gaming gets in the way of studying and he said something like "Maybe when you're done with school?"

I tried to stoop a little lower and say that buying hard copies is a thing of the past but then he goes on something about special editions or something.

I will never shop at Gamestop again.

Did he put Splatoon 2 on a string and tugged it away a little every time you got a bit close to it?

Just saw something pretty disturbing at the liquor store

The guy in front of me in line obviously had a hard life. Dirty clothes, mumbling to himself, etc. He paid for his items with change out of a sunglasses case. When I walked out to my car I noticed he was messing around with the cigarette butt container. I sat there for a second and watched him take the lid off and pull out a whole bunch of cigarette butts and put them in his pocket.

Apparently he picked out the longer ones so he could smoke later? Man I feel bad for someone who has reached that point in their life. I actually considered rolling the window down and offering to just buy him a pack of cigarettes, but what's the point?

I posted that several weeks ago after I went in a beer run. Not really sure why that guy saved my post. It's actually kind of bizarre

I saw Gamestop dude at a grocery store in Los Angeles yesterday.

I told him how cool it was to meet him in person, but I didn’t want to be a douche and bother him and ask him for photos or anything.

He said, “Oh, like you’re doing now?”

I was taken aback, and all I could say was “Huh?” but he kept cutting me off and going “huh? huh? huh?” and closing his hand shut in front of my face.

I walked away and continued with my shopping, and I heard him chuckle as I walked off.

When I came to pay for my stuff up front I saw dudd trying to walk out the doors with like fifteen Milky Ways in his hands without paying. The girl at the counter was very nice about it and professional, and was like “Sir, you need to pay for those first.”

At first he kept pretending to be tired and not hear her, but eventually turned back around and brought them to the counter.

When she took one of the bars and started scanning it multiple times, he stopped her and told her to scan them each individually “to prevent any electrical interference” and then turned around and winked at me. I don’t even think that’s a word. After she scanned each bar and put them in a bag and started to say the price, he kept interrupting her by yawning really loudly.

In high school my girlfriends best friend used to do this, I thought it was so fucking gross.

But I guess if you need to smoke then you do what you got to do.
