I Ain't Got No Cigarettes


Hi there. I was just at your other store on Court Street...

Well, this is my only store.

Oh really? The lady at the other store told me that she has another store on Smith and that the woman I'm looking for is at that one.

No, that's not us.

She said the store was between Union & Sackett but I didn't see it.

Well, there's another store further down on Smith.

Oh ok. Well, I have cigarettes for $35 a carton if you're interested.

Uh, no thanks.

The Mysterious (Former) Mr. Madonna


Customer: Do you have that movie with Sean Penn in it? The... um, Indian Runner?

The one he directed? Yeah, right there.

Customer: This is good right? The guys goes all insane coming back from Vietnam?

Something like that.

Customer: (to girlfriend) This is that movie I've heard about with Sean Penn.

Girlfriend: Who's Sean Penn?

You're No Rod Serling


Two slightly drunk and/or ditzy guys browsing in the store.

(Pointing up to the TV as it plays The Day the Earth Stood Still) "Oh, I like this movie."

(laughing) "What is it?"

"The Twilight Zone!"

A Visit From the Movie Professor


Two guys come into the store. One guy starts to browse, the other guy (a particularly skinny dude) yells out:

"You got Gangs of New York?"

"Yeah, in New Releases, 4th shelf, 2nd from the right."

"Harley Davidson & the Marlboro Man?"

"No, sorry."

"Ok, I'll give you a genre, you give me a movie."

"Oooookay..."

"Harley Davidsons."

"Uh..."

Well, not really a genre, I guess."

"Mmmm... Easy Rider?"

"Ha, good. See ya." Skinny dude starts walking out.

"Wait, do I get a grade?"

Stops. "You get a B+."

"A B+?!"

"Yeah, cuz as a proprietor, you should have Harley Davidson & the Marlboro Man."

"Oh... right..."
