Now, replace "Paul Sheldon" with "Reiner Knizia", replace "Misery Books" with "Tile-laying Trilogy" and replace "Bookstore" with "Game Store". This is how I imagine things going with the AP-prone, "Win at all costs, irrespective of fun" attitude.

LMAO. I was dying.

That's a total put-on; Paul Sheldon is a fictional author created by Stephen King in his book Misery.

She says "cockadoody book" . Cockadoody is swear word concocted in that book. The fact that the filming starts well before she goes off is a pretty good sign it was all staged.... not to mention the ending. Wonder what the motivation was for her to pull the stunt? Lost a bet? Dare? Acting project?

Ah, her motivation... Just thought about that a little more. I forgot the age we live in. She had a friend stealthily record the thing so she can become a meme and get some internet hits.

Pete, you are helping her achieve her dream.

Oh how funny, lady is trying to act like she's whatshername from Misery in the bookstore to get attention...I wish someone has clowned her stupid ass out right there. All it would have took is someone that had seen the movie, let alone read the book.

My good friend's wife manages a Barnes and Noble. Given the stories I've heard, no video would surprise me---even stuff that appears almost unreal.

I'm fully aware that it's white-hot BS, and that this whole thing is a put on based on the character in Misery. I also looked at it and laughed my ass off, thinking how epic it would be to be in a game store when someone is neck-vein-poppingly screaming at the store owner "WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU DON'T HAVE ATLANTEON!?!? IT'S THE BEST BOARD GAME EVER PUBLISHED??" (looking over at WH40K games going on) "WHAT'S WRONG WITH YOU!!?!? HASN'T ANYONE HEARD OF REINER KNIZIA!?!!?"

I'm amazed that no one in the bookstore got the joke. How could none of those people have ever read the book or seen the movie?

All the customers in the similar Spartacus gag at Starbucks got the joke and no millenials have seen that movie.

I'm thinking the cashier guy was in on it too. He's just not responding in the way you'd think one of those guys would, "can I get some security in here"

C'mon Pete! Yer among friends. You are safe to admit she had you at cockadoody.

Actually, it would be a fitting homage to this lady who has so tickled your fancy if you could somehow work "cockadoody" into one of your extra-strong language game reviews.
