Ain't It Cool? Maybe. Maybe not.

I just woke up from a dream in which I was on vacation with Dad and April. We stopped at a bizarre video rental store which was also a diner. The entire thing had a dungeon motif. When we walked in, Harry Knowles from Ain't It Cool News was scribbling away on a legal pad in the corner. I realized via dream logic that it was some place he's always talking about in his columns.

Then I couldn't order any food because I couldn't read the signs over the counter and the menu was gibberish, so I just nodded when Dad suggested the Blooming Onion.

While we were in line, some little kid started mouthing off so I punched the smartass. He fell bleeding to the floor and I growled "Stay down, bitch" as Knowles gathered up his belongings and left the store.
