He told me the story goes like this..

Ben: Hi, do you have the movie 'The Birdcage'

shopassistant: Oh thats the gay movie right? With Robin Williams?

Ben: (cofs and shuffles feet) Yeah thats the one.

Shopass: Nope don't have that one.

Ben: (looking at list) Okay so do you have 'Precilla Queen of the desert?"

Shopass: Oh thats a great one! I love that one. But no, sorry, we dont stock that.

Ben: (shooting daggers at his snickering friends) Right. Okay. Brokeback Mountain?

Shopass: Ah, now that gay movie we do have!

Ben: Its for my MUM okay!!!?

Shopass: Uh-huh

Hehehehe, others might have given up at the first hurdle.
