The mall

I entered the mall via a regular-sized door. In the course of the next hour, I would buy nothing, and see nothing I wanted to buy, as the mall wrapped itself around me like a straightjacket. I would lose my bearings in a numb succession of Escher-like escalators - Escherlators? - and other people as forsaken as myself. I’ll have to go back to the mall one night after work this week.

    I suspect we will all be in the same wretched cosmic mall one night after work this week. Look out for me.

    I hate days like that. Not meaning to rub it in but, I just went to the mall, finished my shopping and was back home in an hour. Productive and cheapness!

    To paraphrase Ecclesiastes 9:10 :
    Whatsoever thy hand findeth to do, do it with thy might; for there is no work, nor device, nor knowledge, nor wisdom, in the mall, whither thou goest

    Make a master plan, be the planmaster. Remember, everyone and everything is trying to sell you something, say no and use violence if you have to. Unless they’re old, if they are pretend to be a mental.

    Whenever I go to a department store, and can’t find anyone to help me, I pretend to shoplift.
