No Respect for the Fallen

From a bathroom reader, Weird Things Customers Say in Bookshops.


CUSTOMER: Can you point me to your military history section, please?
BOOKSELLER: I’m afraid we’re such a small shop that we don’t actually have one.
CUSTOMER: WHAT? No war section AT ALL? Have you no respect for the fallen?
BOOKSELLER: I can order in any title you’re after. Or you’ll find a decent selection of war poetry and novels inspired by war.
CUSTOMER (ignoring this): You mean to tell me you have no shelf on weaponry?
BOOKSELLER: I’m afraid not.
CUSTOMER: Are you a pacifist or something?
