Karma Chameleon at Blockbuster

If I didn't believe in Karma before, I sure do now.
Some of my more long-term readers may or may not remember me complaining about an incident where Tery stood in line at Blockbuster hoping for a copy of The Butterfly Effect from behind the desk for me, only to have an exceptionally rude customer walk in the front door and bellow across the store for it, thus unfairly winning the sole copy.
Tonight I was in the very same Blockbuster with a very slim hope of renting Hero. Nothing on the shelves, so I went to ask the clerks behind the register. Before the guy could even check for me, another customer overheard and offered me the copy he was just at that moment returning (lucky for me he apparently was unaware of the drop box outside). Another clerk dashed over, claiming another customer was looking as well. Step off, beeyatch. What goes around comes around. I know that now.

Praise can spur to greater things.
