They come up to me, and this is how the conversation goes:
White guy: Hey, mannn
Me: ?
Black guy: You like rap?
Me: Uhhh, yeah?
Black guy: Alright, man. You need to check out our mixtape. It's only $1. We're the "Dream Team"
Me: ....
So now I'm interested to see what these clowns are made of. I give them $1 and take the Memorex CD and drop it in my bag.

what I learned at work today
spiegelman: With the exception of Fargo, no movie that takes place entirely in a snowy venue or even has the word “snow” in the title has ever done well at the box office.
