I had been working at Wal-Mart for about 6 months.  I took my lunch everynight at the same place, the Radio Grill.   It was dark and quiet, me and only 2 other people took lunch there.  One was a old guy that didn't bother no one and the second, well he was a little louder.  So one night, as normal I clocked-out went to the Radio Grill, and in walks this other guy, we look at each other and nod (common courtesy).   I seen that he had a gaming magazine in his hand, it kinda sparked my interest but didn't was to impose.  He sat down a couple tables infront of me sideways, were I could see the side of this face.  So I turned sideways (not wanting him to think I was looking at him).  Everything was peaceful, quiet and dark, as normal and then BOOM BOOM he hits the table, I glance up and he's talking to himself?!?!?!?  "I can't beleive Enix is delaying Kingdom Hearts II again, them bastards!"  OK is this guy metally disturbed? did he forget to take his medicine before he came to work?  

I watched him out of the corner of my eye, his calms himself down, and begins to read more.   BOOM BOOM BOOM  "I can't believe it I can't wait no longer, why does Enix have to do this everytime!!!!  I've waited to long!!"   He startes to rant again, to himself AGAIN!, and then oooo shiiittttttt, he caught me looking at him.  What should I do? Was I looking at him like a caged animal at the circus, like he should be?  What will he say?  Are eyes meet, (ok breath deep, I'm going get my ass whooped over some idiot named Enix that didn't put something out on time).  And then he says "Can you believe Enix has pushed back the release date for Kingdom Hearts II again????"  I reply in a calm smoothing voice, (not to irritate him anymore) "I'm sorry but I don't know what your talking about"  (Dam wrong thing to say)  THIS FOOL STANDS UP WITHOUT SAYING ANYTHING AND STARTS WALKING TOWARDS ME!!!!!!  I know the only thing between me and the fire exit is a 55 - 60 year old man.  If I run over this older gentleman to get a head start, he'll be OK, he's in pretty good health.   That's my plan throw a chair at him and run over the old man and hit the fire exit, and don't look back.  So I waited, he walks up and sits down at my table, (dam what's plan B?)  and he startes to tell me about the game Kingdom Hearts, I still think he's a little fruity but he's making a little since now.  and then he says I have my brother's copy and I'll bring it to you so you can play you seem like a RPG type of guy.  (Around here you don't say anything bad about someone's mom or wife, so which one was he talking about my mom or wife? what's a RPG?)  Excuse me but what's a RPG it's a Role Playing Game.  So he brings me a copy and that's how mine and AgedSANDSHARK's friendship started!!!  Just don't tell him, that I was going to hit him with a chair and run like hell!!
