I guess Macy's tubes are all full.

I was looking online to buy a pair of slippers similar to a pair I gifted to someone for Christmas. I went to Macys.com and get this crap:

That picture probably isn't going to turn out very well, but the text says:

"Well be right with you.

It's a little crowded in here right now, and to make sure everyone enjoys shopping with us, we're asking new visitors to wait here a few moments while other shoppers finish up. We'll refresh your browser and welcome you in momentarily. Thanks for your patience!"


How ridiculous is that? In a REAL STORE you never have to wait because it's too full. OK, maybe sometimes. But I'm pretty sure Macy's isn't selling bargain-price Vera Wang wedding gowns. Or life-time supplies of brownie sundaes. Because I would totally wait in line for that.
