Jack Shops At ASDA
Thursday, April 30, 2009 4:10:25 PM
A few weeks ago on a visit to Grum, Mik, Grum and I went to Asda to do some grocery shopping and look around.
As we approached the homeware aisle, our eyes were drawn to a tall guy looking at plates. Mik and I looked at the guy, then at each other, muffling the sudden giggles that bubbled up from looking at the stranger.
He was wearing long black trousers with a really long belt hanging down, a white shirt, bandana, and his hair was long and dark. I looked at Mik, and mouthed, "no...?" as the man turned around briefly to reveal his face - made up with eyeliner. His beard was put into two braids, even.
I had to turn away quickly, my body shaking with laughter. This guy was out shopping for crockery at 10 in the morning... Like any ordinary guy. Bored and performing a necessary task... Dressed like Jack Sparrow.

I had to run away. It was too funny.
We walked around the store together, theorizing as to why some lone shopper would be dressed like Jack Sparrow as if it was the most natural thing in the world, shopping as we went.
We reached the checkout and Mik spotted the guy looking at all the DVDs for sale. The guy stood in front of a display for a while, picked a few things up, put them back, and left.
Curious, we walked over to the display and saw that the guy had collected every Pirates Of The Caribbean DVD in the store and put them in front of everything else on the display
.
...serious WTF moment. We can't figure him out! So, any theories about this Hack Sparrow? *groans at own lame joke*

May-be he gets royalties from the sale?

Was there anyone else that stayed close to him? If so, I'm thinking it was a stunt for a TV show of some kind, and his entourage would be the ones with the camera, microphone and whatnot.
If it's not either of those, I think I'll assume he is a JackSparrowagram that is trying to find a few one-liners from the films that he can copy, before getting to the stripping part of his line of work.

Sounds almost like something Leon Schuster would do.

Battlecat - top.
He's a versatile creature for Adam/He Man to "ride".
