Stupidest. Book. Question. Ever.

Any bookstore can essentially be divided into two sections: Fiction, and Non-Fiction.

Okay, we’ve got a cafe, and a magazine section, too, but in terms of books, they’re either Fiction, or they’re Non-Fiction.

Fiction, as I’m sure you’re aware, is a story that is not, in fact, factual. It’s imaginary. It may be based on real events (or not), but it’s made-up.

Non-Fiction, however, is fact: it’s true. Or, at the very least, it purports to be true. Going Rogue, I’m looking at you.

Non-Fiction, then, at the Bookstore, includes the following sections: Politics & Government, Economy, Psychology, Sociology, Business Life, Management, People and Profiles, Small Business, Accounting, Law & Labor, Metaphysical, Religion, Biography, General US History, Modern US History, Civil War, African-American Studies, World War I, World War II, Vietnam War, Gulf Wars, European History, African History, Asian History, Israel History, Travel, Travel Planning, Self Improvement, Cooking, Sports, Reference, Writing Style, Word Play, Foreign Language, Art, Architecture, Photography, True Crime, and many many many more!

So, when you come in, and you walk up, and you ask, “Where’s the non-fiction section?” Please don’t be offended when I roll my eyes.

Mister, the Non Fiction Section is everywhere the assorted fiction sections aren’t!
