One word that stuck in my mind from the description of Joe Vig is that he is
“Oblivious”. All to often, I think, we have to deal with “Oblivious” folks.
Case in point: You’re at the supermarket, just needing to pick up one small item
on the way home from a stressful day at work. All the normal lines are packed,
but you have hope: The Express Lane. “Hope” until you get there and find that
Joe Vig has beat you to the punch. And the cheese bricks. And about four dozen
other items.
My first contest entry shows a moment of wish-fullfillment. Wish fullfillment
for everyone but Joe, that is.
Alternate angles are
here,
here, and
here.
Comments and suggestions are welcome and appreciated. :)

Nicely done, Chris. You pulled that moment in time off well and I truly
appreciate the TWISTED humour presented here (if not a depart from the Vigs I
have come to expect, wink).
Sadly I was behind the female version of the oblivious Joe, just this week, and
I cant say I held my tongue either. Beats a chain saw, but is not in line with
the lesson my mother TRIED teaching me...“If you can’t say anything nice, don’t
say anything at all”.... apparently I got that message mixed up, “If you can’t
say anything nice, be sure to say it loud enough for everyone to hear.”
Thanks for the laugh!

Um.. It appears Joe only has about 12-14 items.. Not something to lose one’s
head over, no? Can’t you cut a ‘vig some slack? ;)

ps But wait! He has cupons too!

EXPIRED cupons.
Counting the 1x1 dots as seperate items, he’s at 16-17 items - and I had a few
more initally, but they completely blocked the view of the cashier. So just
pretend he’s also got a bout eight packs of gum that fall below the 1x1 tile
size. ;)
AND I should mention he’s paying with a third party check from North Yemmen.
After 16 minutes of arguing about it he gives in....and pays in unrolled
pennies.
Canadian Pennies.
And this vig takes place in Houston.
Yeah.
That’ll do it.

Chris,
That's a well thought out Vig! I loved all the background info.
Nicely done!

Hey Chris,
Great Vig. I like the overhead shot especially.
