The Gamestop at our mall had a whole bunch of Dubya-2 boxes stacked up in their storefront window. Having a husband who would elect me Wife of the Year and Queen of the Universe were I to wrap up a Dubya-2 and put it under the Christmas tree this year, I got hesitantly excited. I knew that it was false advertising, but I decided to ask anyway, because I would have regretted it if I didn’t.
SARAHK [in underwhelmed voice]: Do y’all actually have Wiis?
CLERK [very casually]: Oh no.
SARAHK: Oh. Because, see, you have the boxes all stacked up in the window, so… it’s just, that’s very deceptive.
He had no comment. Had moved on to fiddling with a display. Was ignoring me. There’s a word for that store and that deceptive Dubya-2 display.
Starts with a W. Ends with an anker.
He was a Wiisel.
The store that I saw like that said they were going to be getting more in, so they didn’t want to take down the display.
…what they didn’t say was that they were only getting about 3 more each week.

Hmmmm… so that’s what happens when your wireless connection switches servers mid-posting of a comment.
Well. I was double mad at the store, so I guess it works out.
GameStops are notorious among gamers for their lousiness.
