A Blockbuster Horror Story(Scary!!!)

[Ebenonce]

Alright everyone, gather around the fire it's time for a Blockbuster horror story.

*Lights Fire, Puts Flashlight under chin* ;

Once there was a store, perhaps not unlike your own, It was a quiet Wednesday morning, then suddenly the doorbell chime goes off!

*Dings Dong, Ding Dongs*

"Hi, Welcome to Blockbuster" The employee said and went on with his daily opening routine, walking back between the backroom and floor running Daily in compass and filing paperwork like normal.

The customer slipped between the isles, lurking through the sections, browsing in an almost sequential manner, the sound of the Blockbuster Entertainment Network disk drowning out any sound from the customer.

Time seemed to pass indefinately, and the employee had forgotten there was a customer present in the store, as he balanced BSI he noticed several holes in his model store, "hmmm" he said ; "where did all the backer cards go?" , He went to print an inventory report and started building yellow inserts to fill in the holes.

After completing this menial task he proceeds to check in the movies and games "Oh no" he says "More member owned product" setting it in a pile cursing to himself, "why can't people bring things back within 37 days he thought, as he checked in the games and started running dead boxes.

As the employee went through the games section he noticed just like his BSI, the games section is missing display boxes, and again he builds Display cases.

As he places the final Display Box, a customer ejaculates sharply "How much does it cost to rent these?", Screaming he turns around, his heart pumping ; veiwing a customer holding close to 30 BSI movie backer cards and about 20 PS2 Display cases.

Needless to say this took a long time to rectify, and - BWA ha ha.

The customer got oriented, rang out, refused rewards, and then all the movies and games never came back....AGAIN!

Oh Come on, I thought it was fun, it's a semi-sarcastic looki at life at Blockbuster with a scenario that wouldn't be that pleasant with a Halloween theme, it's not like I haven't lurked here for years, I just thought it could be fun.

Come on now, we don't always have to be serious always ever.

Oz is wrong about it being the storyteller that makes the story interesting. Neither the storyteller nor the story could save this one....wtf?

Oh good grief. it's not funny or fun. It's annoying, and goes in the CSTDT thread. What did you hope this thread would turn into with a weak post like that?

I like you ebenonce, but that's a sad excuse for a story, scary or otherwise.

Oh, and look up the definition of sarcasm, because you missed a step there

Not to mention it's September. Wait a month till you try to be "scary" and practice your technique in the meantime. Maybe look up the definition of scary, too

I'll give the n00b props for creativity. One of the most interesting things I've read on here lately.

My answer is not nearly enough and can I have more please?

Though I must be honest and admit I rather enjoy my job.
