Maturity? I Have None

One of the best and worst ideas that clothing stores have ever had is playing music in the dressing rooms. Sure, it blocks out the whining kids a bit, and it adds sound color to what would normally be a very static environment, but they really need to watch the song selection.

So as I've mentioned before, I can't really shop in the adults' section; I don't fit the clothing. This means I have to shop in the kids' or juniors' section. Either way, the options are bad. I'm a terribly sarcastic person, and the clothing options for children these days provides endless opportunity for me to tear down verbally. 

So I'm an adult shopping in the kids' section and using the kids' dressing room because I'm not motivated enough to go back across the store just to try on a shirt. Moreover, I'm an immature adult in the funny looking dressing rooms with horribly age inappropriate clothes and an untempered mouth. Yeah, I've gotten looks from parents before.

Few people realize how much dance techno dressing room music can add to a person's shopping experience. Add the music to walls of mirrors, and you get an idiots acting as though there's just been an OD taken of crack.

Yeah, that might have been the most interesting shopping trip to date.
