I did forget one.....the ever-so-famous......and if you work an electronics store you know this one......


I need some cables for my tv/dvd/record player/blow-up sex toy. What kind? What do you mean what kind???????

Instead of asking if they need HDMI, VGA or power cords, I ask if they need to hook it to the wall or the tv. Amazingly, some people still don't understand that. Since I work with gaming consoles, you have a fifty-fifty chance of getting the right cable. It only gets bad when they need an AV cable of some sort but can't tell me what sort of input the TV has. "When you play the game, what channel do you turn your tv to? 3? Input 1? HDMI? Games?" (All of which are valid depending on what model tv you have). I get no response often enough. So they get a generic cable that works with most tvs.

Also, I'm a fan of being asked if you need a hi-def tv to get your games or movies to display in hi-def. Nice. Think that one through, please.

Yeah, well, I'm a customer, and I demand service!!!!!!! Just kidding, seriously. Put the guns and knives down. Please. I mean, put the marshmallows and gumdrops down.....(we can't glorify/joke about violence, sorry Ree.)

Hehe...when my college plays their big rival (we play soccer) they throw marshmallows on the field.

Give 'em jumper cables...then tell them to hook one end to their brain, and one end to the power supply, and they'll get their movies in 3D virtual reality...

I almost broke rule #1...thankfully I had put the soda can DOWN before reading that!

I'm sorry, I know it's wrong but that is f'n funny...

The best is when I get non-english speaking customers who don't know what an address is, or better yet, when I ask em for valid ID for cell phone credit checks, they hand me a fake canadian ID.....I can count 11 separate occasions where that's happened.

Imagine....retarded, one thing.....but you can barely break the language barrier because of it? I deserve a freaking medal for being able to figure out stupidity in spanish.

Right after we discover fire.

[DarthRetard]
