Current Events > I saw Bryan Cranston at GameStop today

(+) Yeah! (+)

I walked in and he was talking to the guy at the counter.

"Gamefaqs, more like lame-faqs, who still goes there?" He said to the employee.

I told him how cool it was to meet him in person, but I didnt want to be a douche and bother him and ask him for photos or anything.
He said, Oh, like youre doing now?
I was taken aback, and all I could say was Huh? but he kept cutting me off and going huh? huh? huh? and closing his hand shut in front of my face. I walked away and continued with my shopping, and I heard him chuckle as I walked off. When I came to pay for my stuff up front I saw him trying to walk out the doors with like fifteen copies of Haze for PS3 in his hands without paying.
The girl at the counter was very nice about it and professional, and was like Sir, you need to pay for those first. At first he kept pretending to be tired and not hear her, but eventually turned back around and brought them to the counter.
When she took one of the bars and started scanning it multiple times, he stopped her and told her to scan them each individually to prevent any electrical infetterence, and then turned around and winked at me. I dont even think thats a word. After she scanned each copy of Haze for PS3 and put them in a bag and started to say the price, he kept interrupting her by yawning really loudly

Haze bars

Cool. Must have been there to get his copy of NHL 22.

I think they were arguing about pit bulls or something.

I saw Benedict Cumberbatch at a GameStop today.

He was browsing the Xbox section when I said, "Hey" "Are you Benedict Cumberbatch?"

"Yes I am." He politely replied

"Well what are you doing here"

Benedict mistook my question about what brings him to such a fine establishment for a jab at his gaming habits, being as it were, and we were standing in the Xbox section of all places.

"Playstation PayStation." He said, "I don't need none of that!" and then he resumed browsing as if the interaction between us weren't happening, which I suppose it really wasn't.

Huh

thats what i thought

I ran into Josh Brolin at the mall

but he saw me coming, and disappeared into a crowd of people

I met J.J. Abrams at my job.

So I was at my desk, casually shitposting on CE until I looked up and saw none other than world renowned filmmaker J.J. Abrams sitting in the corner of the lounge looking at something on his tablet!
Naturally, I wanted to talk to him but I was nervous as hell. After half an hour, I finally worked up the nerves to approach him.

"Excuse me, Mr. Abrams."

He looked up at me as if he was a blood thirsty fanboy and I was Kathleen Kennedy.
I could only maintain eye contact with such a mighty presence for so long. Occasionally, I would have to look down at his bright red Bad Robot t-shirt.

"I'm a big fan of yours! 'The Force Awakens' was a huge inspiration to me and 'Gone Fishin' is an undeniable classic!"

He let out a sigh of clear annoyance while lowering his tablet and pinching his forehead with his thumb and index finger.

"Okay, listen, kid," J.J. said with such authority in his voice. "Tell me, what am I doing right now?"

I didn't know what to say, but he didn't give me much time to answer in the first place.

"I'm minding my own business," he says venomously, while gesturing to his general surrounding. J.J. continues, "And from where I'm sitting, one of us don't know their place."

Again, I couldn't find the words to say in response to this. There was an awkward beat.

"Are you lost?," J.J. says with the annoyance in his voice growing louder. "Do. You. Need. To. Go. Home?"
"I didn't mean to bother you."
"Oh, like what you're doing now?"
I weakly tried to respond, "I...I just wanted to-"

But as I tried to talk, J.J. would continuously cut me off by going "Uhp!"

"I just-"
"Uhp!"
"I wanted to-"
"Uhp!"
"I didn't mean to-"
"Uhp!"
"Can I just-"
"Uhp!"

J.J. kept his eyes locked on to me, waiting for me to say something else, but I had given up. When he realized this, he remained eye contact before slowly putting his attention back to his tablet. I just stood there standing in front of him trying to wrap my head around what the hell just happened.

"You can go now," he says without breaking his eyesight from the tablet. This was accompanied by a dismissive hand waved.
I retreated away from J.J. in defeat. I was trying so hard to not break down and cry that I started to get a nose bleed, so I made a dash for the restroom. When I got there, I looked down at my blouse and blood was everywhere.

When I got back to my desk, my supervisor told me, "Hey, that dude in the corner over there left you a tip."
The "tip" in speaking was a Lost box set. So the silver lining here is that I have something to do on my off days.

2 people inside a Gamestop? Definitely a bs story.

Lmao
