But you DO know me:
I was at Wal-Mart today shopping for blank videotapes and other things to bring to the Philippines. At one point, I was looking through the new DVD releases. Remember Ryan Starr from one of the previous seasons of American Idol? I didn't... until I saw that she has some horror-type movie out on DVD. Anyway, jumping to the main point of the story. Suddenly, this random boy comes up from behind me and grabs my arm with a tight grip.
Random Boy: Excuse me?
Me: *thinking it's one of the little kids from church* Oh, hi Ji... [wait a second, you're not Jiro.]
RB: Hello.
Me: Hi. [He must think I work here or something.]
RB: Can you buy me that movie? *points at some DVD on the kids shelf*
Me: Umm...
I look around for his parents or whoever. Of course, no else is in that aisle but the two of us. How convenient. *sigh*
RB: I've been a good boy.
Me: I, I don't really know you.
RB: I'm Joshua. My name is Joshua. Now you know me.
Me: ...
At this point, he finally lets go of my arm. Yes, all this time he was inhibiting my blood circulation. He then walks off and disappears around the corner.
Random boy: *muttering* But you do know me. I'm Joshua.
And there you have my little Kathy Bates, Misery-type experience. "You WILL buy me this movie, Mr. Man!"
