So I'm at Radio Shack when a woman in her 40s walks in. She's very large and very loud, with a high-pitched, piercing voice.

"DO YOU KNOW IF THE HEADPHONES YOU USE FOR A RADIO CAN BE USED FOR A COMPUTER?" she asks. The clerk says yes, they are the same. "DO YOU CARRY HEADPHONES?" she screeches. Once again, the clerk says yes, and shows the woman where the headphones are.

But the woman has no further interest in headphones. Instead she begins asking about a long list of other items, seeming to follow her own stream-of-consciousness.

"DO YOU HAVE CELL PHONE CHARGERS?"

"DO YOU HAVE CIGARETTE LIGHTERS?"

"DO YOU HAVE PIGS?"

Now, I have to admit that I've been only half-listening up until this point. But the question, "Do you have pigs?" has captured my full attention. The clerk is just staring at her, puzzled. Finally, the woman rolls her eyes and says, "NOT REAL PIGS. STUFFED PIGS. DO YOU HAVE STUFFED PIGS?"

It turns out that Radio Shack, in case you had ever wondered, does not carry stuffed pigs.

"DO YOU HAVE THOSE BLUETOOTH HEADSETS FOR PHONES?" the woman wants to know. But before the clerk can even open her mouth, the woman shrieks even louder, "DON'T TELL ME YOU DON'T HAVE THEM BECAUSE YOU HAVE PHONES ALL OVER THE PLACE! YOU HAVE TO HAVE BLUETOOTH HEADSETS!"

They do carry Bluetooth headsets.

"DO THOSE WORK IN THE CITIES?"

The clerk explains that they work wherever your phone works.

"YOU MEAN IF I BOUGHT ONE OF THESE I'D STILL HAVE TO CARRY MY PHONE AROUND WITH ME?"

Yes. Your phone must be within 30 feet of the headset.

"WELL, HOW MUCH DO THEY COST?"

They start at $40.

"FORTY DOLLARS?!! THAT'S RIDICULOUS!" she says, and storms out.

After that she probably headed over to Dairy Queen to try and pick up a new set of tires.
