(I’m just stocking the game shelf, when a mother with her kid approaches me.)
Me: “Hello, ma’am, can I help you with something?”
Customer: “Young man, I was looking at the content on the back of this game box. Is there nudity in this game? It says ‘brief nudity’ on the box. Is this game appropriate for my child?”
(The kid hands me the game. It is a platinum copy of Dead Rising for XBOX 360. The kid looks ten at the oldest.)
Me: “Not that I can recall. Usually, that means people in their underwear. However, I am required to at least warn you that the game contains graphic violence. Are you sure you want to buy this game for your child?”
Customer: “Hmph! He sees enough violence on TV. I just want to know if there is nudity in the game!” *storms away with the game for her kid*
Me: “Hello. How are you doing today?”
Customer: “I’m alive.”
Me: “That’s good. Find everything okay today?”
Customer: “Yeah. Because if I wasn’t alive, I’d be dead. Or a zombie.”
Me: “I guess you would.”
Customer: “Do you like zombies?”
