As
a follow-up (or would it be a prelude) to my last post Music of the Devil, I figured
I would post about the first time I was called a “Devil Person.” This story can also be found on peopleofwalmart.com
under the title “A Goth Topic.”
On
this particular day I was wearing black jeans, a black T-shirt, several spiked
leather bands on my wrists, a pink and black dog collar, a large shiny pink
Nightmare Before Christmas belt buckle and a Nightmare Before Christmas Jack
Skellington hat. I stopped at Walmart to
pick up a few things on my way to work.
Another customer came up to me and told me she really liked my
costume. I told her it’s not really a
costume if I dress like this every day and that I was Goth. She flipped out and accused me of being the
devil. Her exact words were: “You’re one of those Devil People aren’t you!? Stay away from me with your evil magic!” And then she screamed at me and ran away. A bunch of other people heard the exchange
and started laughing. Why this woman
thought I was in costume at one-thirty in the afternoon three weeks before
Halloween, I have no idea. But it sure
made for an interesting encounter. Some
people are just so stupid.
