pornos and passports

So I’m at the video store. The one to which I belonged before living overseas. The girl behind the counter informs me I have an overdue fee for a late return (from nearly two years ago!)  I ask which movie it was. She told me and I heard, "Babe Laid." 

I said, "Pardon? Is that a porno?"

She said, "No."

I said, "Babe Laid? It sounds like a porno. If it’s a porno, it wasn’t me!"

She said, "No, it’s a kid’s movie."

Then I remembered. "Beyblade."

Phew.

My Canadian friend I met in South Korea has also returned home. She told me of how she was trying to rent a movie at a video store. They asked for ID. They needed a current driver’s licence. She didn’t have a current one from Canada. They wouldn’t let her rent the movie. She offered them her passport. They still wouldn’t let her rent the movie. Apparently she needed a current driver’s licence. So, incredulous, she said, "So I can get into Russia, but I can’t hire one of your movies??!"

It was probably a porno  called Babe Laid, anyhow.

Sorry, Mel 2.  🙂
