He Can Light Up The Sky(rim)
(I work in a small comic shop. Our bathroom lights don’t work quite right. Once you flip on the switch, they do light up, about five seconds later.)
Customer: “Excuse me, the lights in your bathroom don’t work. I think it’s a dead bulb.”
Me: “Oh, no, they work. You just need to—”
Customer: “No, they don’t! Come with me, let me show you!”
(The customer leads me to the bathrooms, I follow. He flips the switch on and off a few times, leaving it in the off position.)
Customer: “See? Can you give maintenance a call or something?”
Me: “Hold on, I can fix this…”
(As I take a step into the bathroom, I flick the switch on behind me, then count out the time it takes for the lights to power up. Just as the lights power on, I shout…)
Me: “STRUN BAH QO!”
(For those that don’t know, that’s ‘Storm Call’ in Skyrim.)
Customer: “T-The Dragonborn…”
