      The art of making sure to linger just long enough to seem like you were casually enjoying them on the same level as the Green Day poster, without lingering so long as to raise suspicion…

    We had to walk past all the bongs, ‘tobacco’ pipes, doc Martens, and band t-shirts to get to the posters.

      Sounds like Spencers. I looked back at my elementary and middle school pictures and I was always wearing some shirt from there.

    Spacing all of the posters out perfectly just to then push them all to one side and hearing the frames hit each other.

    POV: you’re 37 and spend 3 hours looking at memes, but don’t print any.

    What was the name of that posters store? (mostly 1990s). Man, I bought like 5 posters there.

      Spencer’s? It had a spot for posters, but it wasn’t really a poster store.

        Why do this when I can go to the book store and casually hide a bikini magazine inside another more-legitimate book/magazine?

      Other places that had this were Media Play and FYE.
