Only a short one, I promise. I should note at this point, this is NOT my customer. I was queuing in a computer shop called “Overclockers” waiting for them to get the stuff I wanted. Coolant and a Fan when suddenly this guy comes bursting in all panicked and runs up to the counter
SC: Stupid customer
OCG: OverClockers Guy
SC: *runs up to the counter panting* You gotta Help me!!
Me: o.O ?
OCG: Woah…ok. Calm down. What’s wrong?!
SC: I Broke the internet!!
Me: Uh…?
OCG: say again?
SC: My friend was on the phone to me, he dared me to type Google into Google, I did, it came up “Page cannot be displayed” I looked at my modem and the light that said “Cable” had gone out
Me: *Trys not to burst out with laughter*
OCG: *Looks at me and tries to contain himself*
SC: I Have my computer in my car. Will it be needed for evidence?!
OCG: No, mate. No need to worry. Your friend is winding you up, and has done a good job, by the looks of it. Typing Google into Google doesn’t do anything except give you a list of Google services. Your cable light probably went out because of a technical fault
SC: are you sure?!
OCG: I’m sure
SC: *Turns to me who has gone back to reading a netgear magazine* is he right?
Me: *Still trying not to laugh* yeah. You’re friend’s stitched you up something chronic
SC: I’mna Kill him *storms out*
Me: (To the Overclockers guy) We’re gonna hear about his friend on the news tonight, aren’t we?
OCG: I would not be in the least bit surprised if we did
SC: Stupid customer
OCG: OverClockers Guy
