Have you ever seen that episode of the Simpsons where Homer wants to buy illegal fireworks? Here's the rundown:

Homer goes shopping for fireworks at the Li'l Valu-Mart, with a clerk that looks almost like Apu.

Homer: "Hi... ummm... let me have some of those porno magazines... large box of condoms... a couple of those panty shields [quickly] and some illegal fireworks [back to normal] and one of those disposable enemas. Ehhh... make it two."

Shopkeeper: "My apologies, sir, but the sale of fireworks is prohibited in this state and is punishable by a f... [the last customer leaves] Follow me."

The clerk shows Homer into his stockpile of fireworks.

Marge goes through Homer's purchases. "I don't know what you have planned tonight, but count me out."


Okay, now picture the same scene when Dad & I go in to a shop that sells CD's. We walk in...Dad's on the prowl for DVD's like always, lol...the girl in the shop says "hello, hello...are you looking to buy some DVD's? wait a moment..."

She calls some telephone number, then waits...eventually we're escorted through a back door, down a hallway, through some more doors to a small room that looks like an old cleaning supply closet. It is filled with DVD's! Dad actually giggled! It felt like cloak & dagger stuff. I could not stop laughing, I felt so evil!
