curbdrop out of grace

i'll sci-fi your face off kid.

so i rented matrix 3. it would have cost $15 to but it from best buy or $60 to buy the entire boxed set. seeing how i only wanted to watch 3 and didn't really want any of the other movies (i own 2 because Entertainment Weekly sales rep had previously given to me back years ago). actually, animatrix was pretty sweet because it's cartoons and shit. i think they call it anime, but without that porn stuff involved.

so i went to the corner video store and got a membership. that place is mighty ghetto. they don't give you membership cards. you just give them your phone number. they also don't charge you upfront for the rental. they charge you when you return the flick. and there is no drop box. so you have to drop off when during store hours.

immediately upon entering i knew it was ghetto because the sections went in this order:
1. comedy
2. new releases
3. drama
4. gay/lesbian
5. sci-fi/horror
6. previously used, for sale

what kind of order is that? Melville Dewey* must be jerking off a storm in his grave.

also i'm pretty sure the clerk was on dope. not that i judge, but it was obvious. he looked like joe's friend travis. travis is a good man. his ex-girlfriend maggie
was way too hot for him though. and then she finally realized. and now his life is in shambles, but i guess that is partially due to hanging out with joe all the time. god bless them both (meaning nothing at all as there is no god).

*as in the guy who invented the Dewey Decimal system.
