I’m one of those people who want to copy a few of these signs for my store. Especially the “prices subject to change” one.

Actually, ‘jewing’ is probably appropriate for the area, considering the skinhead populati0n. However, since it’s turned from people declaring ‘corners’ as it was in my HS days, i.e. skinhead corner, punk corner, preppy corner (I swear these ‘corners’ were approximately ten feet away from each other) into a crazily expanding (upward mostly due to lack of room on the crowded streets) retail mecca, they’d probably want to avoid alienating potential customers…. Oh, wait….
FYI~ If it was on the pier it was the kite shop or the bait shop and I’m betting on the kite shop. Both sell other trinkets as well. Unless they’ve been supplanted by another identical surfwear shop or some other incredibly overpriced establishment in the last couple of weeks (entirely possible). Or a pawn shop, hoping to get their own show on the History Channel.

I got a Triple-A discount at a porn store once. Does that count? Glow-in-the-dark condoms carry a pretty unbelievable mark-up.

Hey. You. Stop that.

Don’t you know you can only fraggle a rock if it explicitly consents to be fraggled?

And just how old IS that rock, anyway? Because you know what underage-rock-fraggling leads to….

“Jonesing” has been mostly supplanted, in the younger generation, by “fiending”. Same dope, different day.

You know, since we’ve contributed so much to the language, you think us junkies would get a bit more respect.

Linguistics is hard work!

Only YT version of their “Keepin’ Up with the Jones” is weak, so instead, another song about medicines…

PG,
Yer “Merkin” may be a better phonetic fit for the word we seem to know but cannot spell here because we (at least I) don’t have a “schwa” key.
And in yer neck o’the woods, many Austinites will emit something that sounds a lot more like “Merkin” than “Merkun”.

Not that it’ll help in a big picture way, but to take your mind off the Oreo shake, recall the “date shakes” made at Hadley’s Orchards stores in SD.
If you ‘decide to motor West’, now you’ve got two places to ‘get yer kicks’.
(I just figured out what to do for a birthday road trip 7 years from now.)

Don’t want to make a monumental thing here , but…
