An Exercise in Lameness
The Boy: Okay! Bad Canadian Kung-fu movie time!
Me: Um. Okay! Sounds fun!
The Boy: Street Fighter's Last Revenge it is!
Me: *reads the back of Ninja and the Warriors of Fire* Heh. Girl Ninjas. Sweet. *pause* ONE HUNDRED AND EIGHTY MINUTES! HOLY CRAP.
The Boy: Yeah, pretty sure that movie has some Serious Pacing Issues. *wrestles with the dvds and the player* Crap, they won't play.
Me: Damn. Well, didn't you pay like five bucks for the two of them?
The Boy: Uh. One dollar. *messes with the player some more* If this doesn't work I'm going to write a strongly worded letter to The Dollar Store.
***********
Dear god. It didn't work, sadly. "This is the most disapointing day of my life," says the boy. Heh.

Letter writing tips...
Date: 2005-12-30 09:34 am (UTC)"I work hard for the money, so hard for it Dollar Store. I work hard for the money and then you don't treat me right!"
"Do you know how much smack I had to peddle before I was even able to steal this dollar from my friendly neighborhood drug-lord?!?"
"If this is the type of inexcusable product I expect to receive when shopping at such a prestigious establishment as this, I will be forced to take my dollars elsewhere, along with its fellow coins!"
"Damned Dirty Cheapskates!'
"[Radio edit]" but I think that you can guess what this one says, and if not I think it might be a fun fill in the blank!!
That's about all I've got. It's late/early, whatever you want to call it, and I have to go to sleep now before I type something really dumb which might embarrass me later....
Happy Holiday Break chica!
