Windex truly is "Multi-Surface"

Up +70 Down

In high school I worked at the seafood counter at large grocery chain. I came into work one day and found the guy already on shift, we'll call him Vlad, with a line of powder neatly laid out on the cutting table. After I inquired, Vlad told me it was crushed up ecstasy and proceeded to ask me, and another guy (working at the attached meat counter) if we wanted some. We declined, and so he railed it all off the counter himself. He then promptly wandered off into the store, leaving us bewildered. Some five minutes later Vlad returned very concerned that his eyes were red and people were going to notice. Even though they weren't red at all, the meat-clerk and myself toyed with him and told that they were incredibly bloodshot. Now very concerned, Vlad grabbed a bottle of windex, walked to the mirror above the hand-washing sink, and sprayed it directly into his eyes. Completely unfazed he wandered back over to us and asked “Is that better?”. Stunned we just said “yes, much better”. I had to work another few hours with Vlad, and much to my disbelief he expressed no signs of discomfort. I never found out if he suffered later repercussions from the eye windexing, he was fired that day for stealing chicken wings from the hot deli. He was busted trying to smuggle them out in a box of latex gloves.
