RF Generation Message Board

So I was searching around the Salvation Army today looking for something that wasn't an overpriced sports title. They have a few shoeboxes with CDs in them and I try and check them for any PS1, DC, or PC games that manage to find their way inside of them, but on the same series of shelves there are just CDs stacked neatly.

So I'm approached by this wrinkly man who asks me what kind of singer Katy Perry is. He said he saw a picture of her and wanted to find a couple of her albums. So this turned from an older gentleman looking for some music to creepy wrinkly guy who fantasizes about young women. I told him all he had to do was turn the radio on and he would find a Katy Perry song somewhere.

What are some of YOUR strange encounters at the thrift store, garage sales, flea markets?

None yet but I now work at goodwill so Im sure Ill have some soon.

So when you get old you will fantasize about old wrinkly women? I think not. ;)

I think the main problem here is the man was wanting to go from her pictures to her music. He might hear a few songs and realize the pictures are much better for his... desires.

The man could be an audiophile and not a pedophile...

Katy Perry is of legal age, so audiophile is a bit more plausible. But if he was a super awesome uber hardcore audiophile he would have been at a different thrift store sifting through mountains of LPs and 45s.

One guy at the flea market talked to me for about 20 minutes about how many girls he had slept with as a teenager.

I've been able to avoid him for, oh, about six months now.

Did you ask him how the Syphilis is working out?

I don't think I ever had a chance to say anything other than "OK" and laugh at his bad jokes.  He literally didn't stop talking for 20 minutes until I walked away.
