this is basically a GIP
During inventory we got a little bit punchy while scanning the paint. I was scanning Reaper paint by myself and J & S (owner and old warehouse manager) were scanning Games Workshop paint.
Reaper paint has fairly sensible names such as "Blues, Bright: Brilliant Blue" and "Greens, Camouflage: Swamp Green" but Games Workshop paint is named with an eye toward trademark, which leads to paint names like "Evil Suns Scarlet" and "Waaagh! Flesh."
J & S finished their paint rack and moved on to a clothing rack, where they were mystified by a Charlie Brown shirt with Charlie Brown, a tricycle, and the caption "It's a fixie."
So I explained why it was a hipster joke.
Which obviously led to Warhammer Fantasy hipster jokes.
"I was into rotting flesh before it was cool!"
