Jake Explains It All

So vacation is almost over and you really need something to brag to your roommate about. Unfortunately all you’ve really done is have sex with your ex-girlfriend and then check her away message everyday to see if she used a Goo Goo Dolls quote (“Slide” was your song). Well, since “Slide” sucks, and you’ve  got A LOT of sweaters you need to return to The Gap, you can kill two birds with one stone by sticking your peen in a sales clerk.

Make the return: So you’ll throw down your V-necks, Turtle Necks, and Crew Necks, but you’ve also slyly grabbed a pair of Extra Large boxer briefs on the way in. “These didn’t fit,” you’ll say, “The crotch is too small.” She raises her eyebrows.

Say this: “The Gap just doesn’t fit my style, ya know? I’m a rebel, a renegade, I go by the beat of my own drummer, and my drummer doesn’t usually drum gay ass indy shit like I hear playing right now. Plus I don’t wear sweaters because I never get cold. I’m the best at cuddling. And I love you”

Make constant innuendos: She says, “I can only give you store credit.” You say, “I bet you’ve got a place I can store my credit.” She says, “What?”, You say, “Butt?” She says, “Excuse me?” You say, “Sex-cuse me?”

To the dressing room: “Maybe I’ll try some of these on again, tell me what you think.” So she follows you to the dressing room, you put on that striped bright green and olive green sweater, you walk out with your hair tassled and a playful smile, give your cutest shrug. Before you know it you’re pushed back into the changing room.

Do it to her: While winking at yourself in the triple mirrors. God that’s awesome.

Return her.

Whiny inmate

I worked at a prison as a corrections officer (prison guard) and there was a particular inmate there who always complained about everything. For three months I endured his rants on how the lights were too bright, the rooms too hot, the blankets too scratchy, and so on. Obviously this is prison and no one gets luxury accommodations. I reached the end of my rope one morning... Read More » when I had to go down the run and wake him up at 7 AM for transport somewhere else in the state for a medical procedure. The guy is all grumpy, complaining about how I'm getting him up at the "ass crack of dawn." He demanded to be allowed time to take a shower, heat and drink some coffee and have a smoke. The van taking him away was already waiting for him and I knew for a fact that he'd taken a shower before going to bed the night before. I told him there wasn't time for any of that, he just had to get dressed and get to the van. He begins swearing and ranting about how inhumanely we were treating him and after months of his complaints I couldn't hold it in anymore. "I know, it sucks how early you have to get up to get your free medical care, huh?" I told him. He was immediately silent . He got dressed and left in a huff. I later found out how he wrote a grievance to the warden about my comment. Inmate complaints are occasionally reason for worry, so I was nervous when the warden called me in to his office. It turned out he just thought my comment was hilarious and told me to keep up the good work.
