Old man "blah blah blah you were here in August, I need service again blah blah blah"
Me "Can I have your first name please?"
OM "bla...herr....wait I should be in your computer!"
Me "That may be, but I need to know who you are before I can look it up."
OM "oh"

TA "eh, someone probably did it for him."

That doesn't necessarily mean anything . . . I've met people for whom anything more advanced than crayon and construction paper was beyond their comprehension.

That's Rapscallion's chest hair trying to escape the clutches of his evil shirt.

"HELP! MUST.......ESCAPE......THE HEAT........THE SWEAT.........THE MOOBS.......TOO MUCH TO BEAR....................HELP!"

It's like an episode of Prison Break, starring Rap's chest hairs.

I had to help an lady who was in her 40's pump gas last week. She didn't know how to use a freaking gas pump and their were no Full Service stations that she could find. As I was taking time out of my day trying to show her how to use a pump w/credit card, after i got her to swipe her card, I put the nozzle in and demonstrated how to hold the handle down until the tank is full or you want it to stop, let go, remove nozzle from tank and replace in holder, etc, etc. I told her to take it from their and went back to my car. As I am filling my car she yells to me "you expect me to do this myself?" I reply "I don't work her. I was helping you because i was in a good mood, since you are too self-entitled, finish it yourself." I decided i had enough gas for now, stopped filling, grabbed my receipt and left.

Yet these are the same people who must have every latest tech fad that comes out. I am sure they will be calling Kara soon to get a Blackberry....

Why doesn't it smell like a Blackberry, Kara??

I can only imagine!

[DGoddessChardonnay]

And I'm sure the next question after that will be . . .

"Why doesn't it taste like a Blackberry?"

[Jester]

"Why doesn't it pass through my digestive tract like a blackberry?"

[DGoddessChardonnay]

"Why doesn't it pass through my digestive tract like a blackberry?"

Thanks Jester. You now owe me a new laptop screen after that ice water bath it just got.

What . . . two cans and a bit of string wouldn't do? Well, I suppose not . . . maybe if the string was 2" - 3" long . . .

A five-year old could do that blindfolded.

However, asking some grown adults to dial 911 for example, can pose a challenge.
