I do understand that there is more to life than comic books, but I just had to share this:
<Phone rings>
Me: GamersCircle!
Male Voice: I am looking for either an Incredible Hulk or Captain America toy/action figure.
Me: Hang on, let me walk around the store and take a look real quick.
Male Voice: <burp>
Me: I know that I have a “Zombie” Hulk, but I am still looking for a Captain America
Male Voice: Nah, I am looking for the ‘standard’ I guess is what you would call it.
Me: Sorry, looks like I all out of any Hulk related and I know when Captain America was killed, I got pretty much cleaned out.
Male Voice: What?!?! He is dead?
Me: Yep, shot and killed
Male Voice: In real life or the comic book?
Me: errr
Male Voice: There isn’t really a person called Captain America … is there?
Me: Umm – he was killed in the comic book about a year ago.
Male Voice: okay. Thanks for checking.
Me: Have a good day!
