The Mice Will Play

Today's comic sort of has a true story behind it. I used to work in a video game store and in my particular location, the DVD player that was supposed to play advertisements for upcoming games was broken... well sort of. it wouldn't play the special looping DVDs that head office sent us (dont' ask me why) but it would play regular DVDs, and until the player was replaced we were allowed to watch G or PG rated movies. At first, it was the greatest thing ever, until we'd seen TMNT, The Last Unicorn and FF Advent Children more than a hundred times each... no, I am not exaggerating. Those were the only movies we had in the store. So every once in a while, the staff and I would get a bit daring and bring in a movie with a slightly riskier rating (ZOMG PG-13) knowing full well that we'd be written up if our boss walked through the door. I suppose back in the day we thought we were being super-rebellious, but I really don't think head office gave two shits what was on the TVs, just that the store was loud and "high-energy".
