Fish Trek 2: It All Goes Downstream From Here
Customer: “This book looks interesting. How do I watch it?”
Me: “Watch it?”
Customer: “Yes, where can I find the movie?”
Me: “I don’t think this book has been adapted into a movie.”
Customer: “What do you mean? Where can I go to watch it? I want to know what happens in the book!”
Me: “Forgive me for asking, but if you want to know what happens, why not just read it?”
Customer: “Read? How stupid! Where’s the movie?! All books are made into movies so that we don’t have to read them!”
Me: “I am sorry, I can’t help you. This is a bookstore. Only popular books — usually adventure stories — are adapted into movies. I am quite sure that this book hasn’t been made into a movie.”
Customer: “Why not?!”
Me: “Because it’s a fishing manual.”
