Don't cross the streams

So, this evening I'm heading into a shopping center with the aim of purchasing a Watchmen T-shirt, because it's getting to be about that time and I can always do with another comics T-shirt. (Although it's kind of hard to top the one the fabulous caia_comica just sent me, declaring "Mark Waid Is Evil." Truth in advertising! Well, okay, promotional thing, but still.)

Anyway, so I'm going towards the entrance when I see a kid dressed up as a giant smiley-face.

Me: *blink* ...I know the marketing is getting a little weird, but surely that isn't actually--
Kid: Girl Scout cookies! Girl Scout cookies!
Me: ...that did not help! Images, bad images!

I think this may not have been quite the ideal time for that particular sales tactic. Now all I can think about is Rorschach choking drug dealers with Samoas.

...yeah, that's a crossover that should never happen. Even worse than the time at the Con where I saw a Rorschach posing with a Supergirl.

And I am so glad you are appreciating the shirt! Have you run into anyone yet who knows who Mark Waid is?

Not yet, but I live in hope!
