i was outside my store yesterday smoking a cigarette and this guy comes up right behind me and screams: HOW WOULD YOU LIKE A FUCKING ICE PICK IN THE BACK OF YOUR HEAD!!??? i turned around and this visibly unstable older guy with a red face and eyes full of hate is standing two feet from me. i replied: "no thank you. maybe try over there." and i pointed at the concrete park next door that is a monument and tribute to dead veterans of war and where the drug dealers and juggalos and bad news kids hang out all day. he stood there shaking with rage for 5 or 10 seconds and then he walked away.

this was actually not long after another guy came in the store and started talking to me about tesla coils and the alignment of stars and area 51 and stealth bombers and how you can read the army's morse code in the boxes that control the traffic lights at the intersection. but he's chill. he wanted to buy a bible from me today. i didn't have one handy.

kinda made me nostalgic for philadelphia. when you work in a beer store/deli in philly you gotta be on your toes. and quite frankly crazy behavior just becomes normal. i remember once at the deli i was behind the register and thia young and attractive asian woman came in - i recognized her from my other counter job a block away and i knew that she was, um, problematic at times - and just stood in front of me for a minute or two not saying anything and then all of a sudden she started laughing maniacally for what felt like forever. like, horror movie creepy crawly oh my god am i tripping? laughter. made my skin crawl! then she just kinda stopped and walked out and i never saw her again.

i do feel a LITTLE bit guilty about sending that guy over to the juggalos, but, hey, you reap what you sow, right?
― scott seward, Sunday, 21 November 2010 00:47 (fifteen years ago)
they certainly do scott. feel NO guilt.

Juggalos are into hatchets more than ice picks, but, no harm done.

I heard he was later seen screaming at the juggalos and demanding to be told how magnets work or something
