I never, ever saw cantstopthesignal have live Fandango links for Portland.

It went from "please wait for online ordering" to "sold out", and the theater there had an automated recording saying, "Please contact Fandango for advance ticket sales".

Bah.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

"It's sold out." click, dial-tone.

This is the sort of thing I make a mental note to talk to managers about.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

In fairness to them, I am a whole lot nicer to clients when I'm getting paid 20 bucks an hour than I ever was at 4.25 an hour.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

This is the sort of thing I make a mental note to talk to managers about.

I don't want to imagine the sort of repetitive disbelief that anyone answering the phone had been getting for hours.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

You should worked for Empire Records.

So, today wasn't a good day not to be anywher near my computer. Ha! Yay for all of you who got tickets. Normally, I'd grumble and be bitter, but I seem to be in a good mood.

I have comic book store pre-order anxiety (which just makes me laugh and laugh). I know they can tell I'm a pretender. Well, at least I know where my local store is. I'm kind of proud of that.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

I think that happens to everyone who works retail at one time or another. I know several who have done the "Thank you for calling _ your 24 hour superstore!" "What time do you close?" Of course conversly FE and I once went to a 24 hour grocery when it was closed. Apparently, they didn't mean in a row.

Once again, you steal my bit.

Snagged four tickets for KC. One of my friends gets #2 because he's moving to Puerto Rico in August and this is his only chance to be part of the group. The rest get to duke it out for my favors.
