I'm PISSED at Retro
We had to run out today to get a few books from the store. The weather is absolutely horrible out there. It's raining and in the low 30's and the freezing rain line is barely north of us. Needless to say it is not pleasant. So, on our way to the store, I noticed that on all the street corners surrounding Retro's bookstore, he had people outside in this freaking horrendous weather holding Retro Is Damn Cool signs. WTF?! Why on Earth would you make anyone stand out in this kind of weather just to promote yourself? I don't know for sure, but I would wager that he doesn't give these people health care coverage. People are going to to whatever it takes to earn money for their families especially in this economy, but it really pissed my off that these poor people would have to stand outside holding signs. Most of them were using their signs as shields from the wind and rain.

Anyway, thanks for listening. I'm just really pissed off about this.



Sorry, bad copycat:

4. They probably volunteered to do it.
I mean, Retro is just that cool.
