bassie said:One of the best indie bookstores in Toronto, Pages, closed about five or so years ago and for the last few years it was open there was a guy who worked there with a monocle. Indie bookstores rival record store employees only after comic book store dudes - or maybe it's a tie - when it comes to crusty attitudinal nerdbombs (not you JP!). Anyway, he worked cash and I always hoped and wished that he wouldn't be there when I went up to pay. It was really really hard to 1 - not laugh 2 - not stare at it 3 - yell "take that pretentious fucking thing off!"
edit - did I mention he had the Shakespeare bob? Yea, he did.
I literally lol'd! If there was a spot here where a book/record store cashier wore a monocle, a cape, or both, I'd call him on it...
but only after establishing that there's no heat or prospect for future goods (hahah).
