Yes droogs.
Just a quick one. Not much to report as, well, nothing's happened.
I just want to share with you something that happened to me in a clothes shop today in NYC.
So… I'm out shopping. Not looking for anything in particular. Just killing time. Enjoying the weather. (Very pleasant. Almost spring-like.)
I'm in some shop or other not showing much interest in the merchandise and the usual scenario starts to unfold. You know the one?
Shop assistant: "Hi… Can I help you with anything today?"
Me: "Erm… No thanks… I'm just looking."
(SO FAR, SO GOOD.)
Shop assistant: “Are you looking for anything in particular… A jacket? Some jeans? A sweater?”
Me: "… No thanks… I'm just looking."
Shop assistant: "How about these sneakers? These are really cool."
Me: "………" (Just a little stare.)
Shop assistant: "What size are you?"
Me: "40, if you must know."
Shop assistant: "Great, I'll go get you a pair."
Now at this point I would ordinarily wait 'til this idiot had wafted behind the curtain and leg it, but for some unknown reason I sat on a little leather stool and waited… and waited.
Just as I'm about to walk out he re-appears box in hand.
Shop assistant: "Here you go."
Me: "Thanks."
So, as luck would have it, they were too big. (Are my bastard feet shrinking now??)
Me: "Sorry mate, they're too big."
Shop assistant: "What? Really? The 40 is too big? Really?"
Me: "Really."
Then - with a straight face (and I'm not joking) - he said this...
"You know… Baggy shoes are very popular right now."
!!!!!!!!!!!
Me: "………" (Just a little stare.)
UN-FUCKIN-BELIEVABLE.
Now… I'm gonna be out of the game until Wednesday / Thursday. Some of my mates are in town and it's probably gonna get pretty messy.
In a bit.
GD.
