I think my brain just shattered.
SC: Whoever referred this guy to me needs to pay for therapy.
T: Art drone.
SC: (describing a project he would like me to do for him over the phone)
T: Alright, sounds good. Could I get your email so that I can send you the sketches when they're done?
SC: I don't have emails.
T: Er, okay. Well, if you don't use the internet, I suppose I could mail you a CD with the images or a print of them so that you can approve the sketches. I will have to charge you extra for the shipping fees, though.
SC: No! I have the internets, I just don't use the emails!
T: Well--
SC: You put it up on the internets and I'll find it.
T: But where....? I don't have a website right now, it's down for maintenance.
SC: Just put it up somewhere on the internets. I'LL FIND IT!!1! (click)
The internet does not work like that!! Also, I don't think "the internets" are as small as you imagine, sir.
He left me a voicemail the other day telling me that he was hunting for it online. He did not say where. I don't expect that he'll have much luck with that. I suspect he's putting in "where is my piece!" into "the googles" repeatedly and/or rolling his head across the keyboard in desperate hopes that the next series of letters may be the right web address. And will he answer my calls or clear out his voicemail so I can tell him where I put the images? No, of course not; logic is a meaningless word to him.
Edit: Also I realize it's kind of a bad thing to not have a website up, in my profession; I sort of accidentally broke it when I updated it the other day, and said screw it, I'll redesign it after the school semester ends. Just don't have the time right now.
