She might argue otherwise, but I actually enjoy shopping with my wife. However, there are times when all of the circumstances add together to result in a dreadful shopping experience.
Forever21 opened a while back in Seoul. There is only one Forever21 in the city/country and it's in Myeongdong (about 40 minutes away). We decided to make the trip and check out the goods. It was February at the time...a dreadfully chilly February. We bundled up coats on top of sweatshirts on top of long-sleeves wrapped in scarves and covered with gloves and hats. We were quite comfortable in the sub-freezing temperature. Too bad the store didn't keep their temp that low as well.
Upon entering the heat box of Forever 21 (thermostat must have been set at 30 degrees Celsius aka freaking hot), I immediately began to remove my outer layers. This was no easy task as I had to move in an extremely agile manner due to the lack of personal space. So there I was shoulder to shoulder, hip to hip with dozens of people, sweating from the abusive heat, picking through racks of clothes we had circled at least 4 times (sounds great??) when this gem starts blasting on the speakers...
The last thing I wanted at this time of extreme patience is an annoying song repeatedly teaching me to count to forty by fives.
Haha, it took me forever to post this only because that is how long it has taken me to find the song. In actuality I do find the song quite catchy and am often caught singing it whenever anything must be counted by five.

Five, ten, fifteen....thirty seconds into the song, I'm breaking out in a sweat. I was either feeling your pain or having a hot flash. (Or was it flashbacks of my own shopping experiences?) Oye! Never go shopping in a crowded place, overdressed, with annoying songs playing.
Lol I love this post
