At the headshop in the mall, it just seems to be a gathering of the assholes. Whenever I go in there, I'm always getting dirty looks or talked to in a bad tone. Some examples
Me: Hey, what are those chillums made from?
Clerk: [snotty tone]Those AREN'T chillums. They are cigarette holders!
Me: How much is your cheapest bong with a slider piece?
Clerk: [Bitchy tone] First of all, its called a WATERPIPE. Second of all, you need I.D for me to tell you anything
Have any bad experiences like this?
people at the DMV are the biggest tools on the face of the planet, i hate them all.
but yeah i've gotten that type of treatment in hunting/sporting good stores. really pisses me off.
Well, you should have known that you cant say bong in a headshop. Thats a pretty quick way to be shut down. Most places will kick you out if you say it more than once after being warned.
Im not saying the attitude was cool, but they probably get tired of having to tell people things like that.
It never said anywhere that the term bong is outlawed. Plus it said bong on a label for them elsewhere.
If you are 14 they probably think the cops sent you in ;)
Why should they tell you anything about stuff you clearly can't buy and if they did sell you something they would go down for it?.
Naaah, they would be better off being jerks and getting you to leave...
headshop bitches, bongs is what there called
What an anal headshop.
Still, I bet he was being anal towards you because you are underage......
Sounds like you should reward em by walking in with a Marijuana shirt on and a Cannabis leaf hat and ask em where they grow their weed.
Or maybe u were doing that and thats why they acted the way they did.
I don't even look 14. I've been said to pass from 16-21 before. 21 is a little over the top, but thats what I've been told so whatever. And I just walked in normally as everyone else would do.
The Gas Pipe (on N Collins in Arlington TX) Is my fave place to shop. The people are actually friendly, polite & helpful and don't act like they can't wait for you to leave. They are always giving away free shit (little stuff, matches, posters, bottle openers etc) good prices, nice selection.
I always go there as it is in total contrast to the Pipe Dreams On Cooper in Arlington TX. That place is right by UTA and maybe they are used to acting too cool for the room and showin their asses when all the college kids are there, but omg, the last time I was in there I had visions of dramatically sweeping my arm along the shelf breaking all the bongs and flipping those jerks off as I uhhh... ran away.
But yeah, dude, never ever call them bongs. Imagine you gotta work there you'd probably get real tired of reminding people to say waterpipe a zilliontyfive times a day.
