Something to be Emo About from the (The Customer Is) Not Always RightScene: A music store somewhere in Houston, Texas.
(A skinny teenager, dressed all in black, approaches us.)
Customer: “Have you heard anything about last night’s Marilyn Manson concert?”
Me: “Not really my thing, sorry.”
Customer: “Oh, so I take it you don’t like Manson?”
Me: “It’s just been done.”
Customer: “I don’t get what you mean.”
Me: “I mean the whole ‘evil’ shtick’s been done before. Alien Sex Fiend did it back in the 70s; Ozzie Osbourne did it; Alice Cooper did it. It’s been done.”
Customer: *mulls on this for a moment* “Oh… oh, my God. You’re right!”
