Copycats.and Copy Dogs, Copy Sheep. Bookstore | New York, USA Customer: "I need a book on cloning."
Me: "OK - would you like a book on the ethics of cloning, or maybe the history of it?"
Customer: "No, I need a how-to book on cloning animals."
Me: "Um.cloning is a pretty complicated process. You'll need several years of college education to be able to clone an animal."
Customer: "No you don't! That's just what we've been told! I read about it, and you can do it with a turkey baster in your kitchen!"
Me: "I think you're thinking of artificial insemination."
Customer: "NO I'M NOT! I NEED TO CLONE MY DOG!"
Me: "."
Customer: "I have a boy dog, and I love him very much, but he's a bad dog. I heard that girl dogs are much nicer, so I want to clone my dog and make a girl dog! STOP HIDING THE BOOKS FROM ME!!!"
Me: *points to back corner* "Our science section is that way. Go knock yourself out."
Next Customer In Line: "How the h*** did you just keep your cool through that?"
There Can Be Only One Insane Customer Bookstore | Oregon, USA (A guy comes in looking a bit haggard.)
Me: "Hi sir! Can I help you find something?"
Customer: "Let's move to the back of the store."
(He takes my arm and we walk to one of the last shelves of the store.)
Customer: "I need a book on immortality."
Me: "All right - we've got science fiction over here."
Customer: "No, I need to research immortality. I'm immortal. See this scar on my neck? A guy cut me a couple days ago and it's almost healed. I'm immortal."
(I stare at the large cut on his neck that is laced together with stitches).
Me: "Um, I'm not sure if we have any books like that."
Customer: "Well, can you buy me a sword from the store next door?"
Me: "I'm sorry, I'm not allowed to do that."
Customer: "I promise I'll pay you back. I'll give you my ID so you can track me down later and everything. I need a sword."
Me: "Really, I could get fired for that."
(The customer looks up and then starts sniffing the air.)
Customer: "They're coming. I have to go!" *runs out of the store*
