Dialogue v.1

Actual conversation witn a co-worker, which took place during another co-worker's attempts at signing up for Netflix online:

CO-WORKER: So, what's the difference between Blockbuster and Netflix?

ME: Not that much. Just depends on which political party you want to give money to.

CO-WORKER: (laughs as if I'm some conspiratorial jackass) What?

ME: Blockbuster is a right wing organization.

CO-WORKER: What? How do you know that? Blockbuster doesn't vote!

ME: Yes they do, with their money. All you have to do is look at which party they give the most political contributions to. Blockbuster gives way more money to the Republicans.

CO-WORKER: Okay, so what do Republicans vote on? Is George Bush a Republican?

ME: (pause) You're not fucking serious, are you?


For the curious: Yes, she WAS serious.
