Barnes Y Nobles 

This is what inebriated 40 something males refer to Barnes and Noble's Bookstores. (Usually said with a Californian surfer accent.)
42 Yr old loser 1) Hey Bro, where could I find a good Surf Mag without going all the way to the grocery store?

Barnes & Nobled 

Having to desperately take a shit and the only place around to use a bathroom is Barnes & Noble. Having to take a shit so bad you can't think straight.

Barnes & Noble Challenge 

When you and a friend buy a 12 pack of cheap beer like natty ice or bush light and sneak it into Barnes and Noble. You then drink the beer with a friend and buy a book before you leave.
Me and my bro just completed the first Barnes & Noble Challenge

Barnes & Noble 

An American bookseller, with the largest number of retail outlets in the United States. Founded in New York City in 1886 as Arthur Hinds & Company. Renamed to Hinds & Noble when Gilbert Clifford Noble was made a partner, then renamed to Barnes & Noble after Noble purchased the company and hired William Barnes. Now operates over 600 retail stores nationwide and is a Mecca for book lovers like me. Many have cafés that serve Starbucks coffee.
Regular person’s ideal date: dinner and a movie.
Nerd’s ideal date: Barnes & Noble and reading a book mutually picked.

Barnes and Noble 

1: Satan's asshole, usually only to employees.
2: A place for insane individuals with foot fetishes and drooling problems to congregate.
3: A store that quickly turns genuinely nice employees into miserable bastards due to horrible pay, horrible management, and that god awful "do you have a membership?" question.
4: Evidently a library since, more often than not, customers don't actually BUY books.
"Excuse me, how do I borrow books?"
"You don't. This is Barnes and Noble. Go to the library down the block."

"Where's your manager?"
"That's a good question. I haven't seen them myself for the past 4 hours."

"I really like feet. What would I have to do to get you to show me your feet??!"
