JUST WHEN YOU THOUGHT IT WAS SAFE TO GO OUTSIDE

Went to an office supply store to buy something really exotic, like a pen refill and a little cover stock paper. I could not have been in the store ten minutes.

Of course, that was about eight minutes too long. I happened upon a couple looking at pencil sharpeners--pencil sharpeners, for God's sake! They were probably about 50 YOA and seemed civilized enough at first. Then they exploded. They were having a freaking all out war, a divide-up-the-retirement-fund-we're-splitting-the-sheets war over which freaking pencil sharpener to buy.

People! Get a retractible pencil and take this somewhere else. If I wanted to hear families fight, I'd go to WalMart!

Sheesh

They must have developed their personal code of conduct by reading blog comment sections

Hey, if you don't have the correct pencil sharpener, life can be pointless.

The humor in here is increasingly leaden.

Yes, I know pencil lead is actually graphite. Sue me. :)
