Did I tell you this one before? I forget.
So, I went to Target and asked at the electronics section for a tape recorder.
*Blank stare from young clerk.* Then a medium-length discussion with me about why I wanted a
tape recorder.
"I just want a voice recorder," I said. "It does not have to have tape. I don't care if it has tape. It's like saying record when I mean cd, okay?"
By this time, the clerk was convinced I needed
big buttons and
big letterson the voice recorder screen because, of course, I am an old person using old-person words like tape recorder.
