It was the day of the big sale. Rumours of the sale and some advertising in the local paper were the main reason for the long line that formed in the morning before the store had even opened.

A small man tried to push his way to the front of the line, only to be pushed back, amid loud and colourful curses. On the man’s second attempt, he was punched square in the jaw, got knocked around a bit, and then thrown to the end of the line again.

As he got up the second time, he said to the person at the end of the line, “That does it! If they hit me one more time, I don’t open the store!”
