just leveled up; no biggie

Victoria Gardens Christmas shopping night is a highlight on the inner city social calendar.

For years, drunken adolescents giddy on free Champagne harass young and old alike. This year was a little different. The shopping night was combined with the midnight release of the latest World of Warcraft expansion.

Jostling for key positions, the line was rough and intense, 1st in line was a man early 40's with a big gripe against customer service. He is having discussions seeking restitution from the head office due to him being denied the ability to purchase a collectors edition with storybook, maps, posters etc.



Third man in the line, with a deliciously clever display of irony, sported a jib consisting of a Batman T-Shirt and a plastic battleaxe - he seemed very keen and waddled out of the store to his mothers car and drive off to commence his gaming experience.

The pinnacle of social excellence however, was the larger man wearing a cape and drinking a 1litre carton of custard. Where does one have the audacity to even consider drinking custard in public a viable idea? Supporting evidence later stipulates the need for him to have a good hard look at his life and re-evaluate.

None of this could have been possible without the 45yo 5 foot even Mexican lady running security and co-ordinating the lines. A pair of 13yo's being the only ones to suffer her wrath of being sent to the back of the line.
