Comic Books: Big Boy Comics

Video Transcript

You know, I have the fondest memories about going to Bob's Big Boy, and you know how when you're a kid, and you're sitting with your parents, and you just want to press on your carotid artery, because you're so bored you want to be dead? Well, what they used to have for people like me is the Wonderful Adventures of Big Boy. How cool is that? you'd go into the Big Boy, and you'd pick up your comic book right at the cashier, as you walked in. It was so darn cool, because in this Big Boy comic book; which says twenty five centsX; like look it's free; we were going to charge you twenty five; because you're our customer....what a great sales strategy, isn't it clever? But anyway; in these comic books, there was all this cool, fun stuff to do. You'd read it, but then there was also games; word games, and this was just enough; you know what this was enough for? Coffee time for Mom and Dad, because when they're drinking the coffee and talking, that's when you're dying. This is the thing that took care of the children; that kind of kept their attention; like a TV set. The same thing went for McDonald's, so when you're eating, you're reading; fun.
