    I dunno, sounds more like a gnome name to me.

      I just saw that episode of "Canada's Worst Drivers" where a guy lost his own licence, so he memorized all the details off someone else's and used those details next time he got hauled up - resulting in his friend getting a DUI conviction. He seemed genuinely surprised when the show's resident law enforcement expert turned his ass in. He was actually crying by the end of the episode, whispering, "It's not fair!"
      I remember that, that guy was such a douchebag. But yeah, he was honestly surprised that the traffic cop they have on the judge's panel turned his ass in.

        And this surprises you?

        I’d totally drop over $100 on a pair of pants if they were certified as Shark Proof.
        Considering that the website of the company (or at least one of the companies) that make this type of suit doesn't even list the prices for such suits ("For Special Order Instructions or for Pricing Information Please Contact..."), I am guessing that said suits are rather expensive. Which means the pants for them (if they are sold separately) are also rather expensive. After all, "if you have to ask the price, you can't afford them." So I am going to go out on a limb here and say that you can't get such paints for $100 and change.

        And if you do find a company that will sell "shark proof pants" to you for that price, the pants probably aren't the kind you want to be wearing when actual sharks come a-calling.

        But I get what you're saying here, pal. 6 bills does seem a bit much to spend on pants. Especially ugly pants.

        SC: “Yeah well, I might go to the media with this!"

        Gasp! No! Not the media! Anything but that. A story of this magnitude would surely dominate the news cycle for days and irreparably damage the city’s reputation. I can see the headlines now: “Local Man Says Construction is Really Loud”.
        Hasn't the fair city of Vancouver suffered enough damage to its reputation recently? And now you're threatening them with this? Weren't the riots enough for you, man? What kind of despicable madman are you?

        Me: “And your last name please?”
        SC: “Mark.”
        Me: “Is that Mark with a C or a K?”
        SC: “Yeah!”

        That is not a valid response. There were only two valid responses to my question.
        Au contraire, mon frer. There are actually THREE valid responses. C, K, or both. The last of which could result in a "Yeah!" answer from the caller, if they were in a particularly puckish mood.

        Yes, I know. Marck is not a common last name. But it does, in fact, exist. It seems more prevalent in the U.S. than in Canada, but I did find some listings for that very last name your country. To your credit, though, none of them were in your province. So I guess you can be at least partially excused, as that name would indeed seem rather foreign to you.

        Obviously his name was Marck..Though possibly Markc
        I quoted this so I could point out the silliness of such a name. After all, there are no listings for Markc in Canada, and here in the States....holy crap! There are 2 listings, one in Tennessee and one in Texas!

        Okay, so we're both wrong, GK, and there are four valid responses to your question, though the fourth one would be very, very unlikely!

        Quoth Gravekeeper View Post
        The other two are just because I'm not right in the head. ;p
        Thank you, Captain Obvious.

            I'm baffled about how or why someone looking for a hotel in Tennessee called a number to a phone line in Vancover.

              I'm not sure which aspect of this unsettles me more. The fact you made that slip up, or the fact you made that slip up while talking to me.
              I'd just go with the idea they were texting/chatting with someone else and not explore the alternatives... >_>

              Quoth Gravekeeper View Post
              That is not a valid response.
              Technically, he did provide a correct answer to your query. It might not have been what you wanted, expected, or even remotely useful, but it was valid.

              You asked if it was C or K, and the answer to that is Yes. With as few brain cells as your callers seem to possess, it might behoove you to guide them a little more firmly and ask, which way they spell it.

              Some of his lines are for US corps, and others have 800 numbers. It's quite possible for a very minor mis-dial to end up on his line.
