Should I feel bad about this?
I just went into my local used bookstore. I saw a copy of Al Franken's "Rush Limbaugh Is A Big Fat Idiot, And Other Observations" on sale for $2. So, I picked it up (with several other titles), and went to pay for it. When I get to the counter to pay, I see that the clerk is... an overweight woman.

I feel like SUCH a heel now! Like she thinks that I'm a jerk for buying a book with that title, given her size. Should I feel guilty, or am I just being too sensitive about it?
