liz's street fighter 4 story

Sooo i go to Gamestop today to pick up Street Fighter 4 during lunch today. Here's how that went.

Me: Hi. I'm here to pick up my reserved copy of street fighter 4.

Gamestop Dude: Oh yeah. For you?

Me: Uh, it might be under my husbands name, i don't know. Do you have any collectors editions left?

Dude: OH its for your husband. No. We're out of the collectors edition. What's the name its held under?

Me: (i give them hubby's name-its not there) Well, then it must be under my name. (Nerd searches and finds it)

Dude: Oh i see. So what character does your husband like to play with?

Me: (fighting the urge to say 'your mom') I don't remember, he's pretty good at all of em. But I prefer Blanka because he can eat your face and there's nothing you can do about it.

Dude: Hmm. Well. that's the game set up over there if you want to try it out. (hands me a pink controller)

Me: Pink? Nice, bro.

Dude: (picks up other pink controller at this point having being ridiculed for having a pink controller) Well since we don't have any customers right now I'll play you.

What happens next is this:

I kick his ass all over the place with out even having to bite his face with my character not once, but 2 times in a row. Then, the second staffer wants a piece. He also proceeds to get his butt kicked by a girl in 3.5 inch heels with a pink controller.
