Last night we went to Blockbuster in search of a movie. As we were walking down the aisles of DVDs, I overheard a father talking to his son. The son appeared to be 10 years old or so.
Father: (in an aggravated tone) "I buy movies not morons!"
Then as we were standing in another aisle of DVDs, the Blockbuster employees had a little conversation nearby.
Blockbuster 1: "I think they must have opened it and poured it into another bag or something."
Blockbuster 2: "Really? That's crazy."
I looked over to see Blockbuster 1 holding the tear-off strip used in opening a pouch of snacks or cheese and a matching empty bag of Poppycock. Apparently someone really wanted that Poppycock. I couldn't help laughing just a little bit.
That caused Blockbuster 1 to eye me a little warily. Possibly he thought I poured the Poppycock into the little clutch I was carrying. Or possibly he just didn't share the humor I saw in the situation.

Sounds like they might have had task force Blockuster workers from east side New Orleans. They're all a bit nervous that you're stealing stuff here.
