Photo of a bookself with a sign saying, "Mystery" and all the books around with the title towards the shelf. Caption: Well played, bookstore, well played.

When someone asks, "What is it?" and someone else answers, "It's a mystery!" I sincerly hope this is what they're talking about 😂 @reading @bookstodon @books @humor@fedigroups.social @humor@lemmy.world @aiop #BookMemes #Meme #Memes #Mystery #Humor #Humour #Funny#Reading #Readers #ReadingCommunity#Litterature #Novel #Bookshelf #BookStore #Books #Bookstodon

See this is why I could never have a job in retail. Some snarky little pissant comes in and flips all the books around for a meme, then walks off. How pissed would you be? Shame we can't have nice things

@MintyFresh @NickEast_IndieWriter Having worked in a B&N around the time this stuff started, can confirm it was a real nuisance for the staff.
