Warning: Braincell loss may occur

[mymaskofsanity]

Heres a quicky

taken word for word (from what i remember due to me thinking I've lost brain cells)

*Customer enters the store using the exit door that you have to pull open opposed to using the automatic door clearly labelled "ENTER". He looks confused, combover no longer combed over, stained shirt, carrying a big red gas can.

WARNING DUMBEST CONVERSATION I'VE EVER HAD

SC - "YOU SHOULD HAVE AN OPEN SIGN AND A CLOSED SIGN SO I KNOW WHEN YOUR NOT OPEN !!!"
*Let the record show we have one of those flourescent orange lit "OPEN" signs outside.

ME - ( I was slack jawed and dumbfounded, wondering what this guy really just said )

SC - Stands still for a moment in quiet contemplation before uttering " If the open sign is off does that mean that your're closed?"

ME - "Well, it would pretty much have to be would it not?"

SC - ( More quiet thought, I think I can actually hear the rust in his head grinding together to move the cogs and wheels to formualte his next stellar question )
" Do you think my car will run on beer?"

ME - ( ???? ) "ummmmm, probably not."

SC - "oh okay"

EXIT SC

I think I stood at my counter for a good five minutes, waiting for Dom DeLuise to pop out ( or at least waddle, I don't imagine hes too mobile these days )

Doesn't happen......ow my head hurts

I'm glad I'd finished my homework before reading this one. I'd have failed the assignments for sure.

SC - "YOU SHOULD HAVE AN OPEN SIGN AND A CLOSED SIGN SO I KNOW WHEN YOU'RE NOT OPEN !!!"
*Let the record show we have one of those flourescent orange lit "OPEN" signs outside.

In his defense, this is a valid comment... provided he never saw the sign... and has some visual problem that prevents him from seeing more than that which is directly in front of him... and only if he didn't come up with the second question.

SC - Stands still for a moment in quiet contemplation before uttering " If the open sign is off does that mean that you're closed?"

He's on the right track with that one. It's a miraculous realization, but he's beginning to catch on. For a moment, the spectators (that's me!) are impressed. And then...

SC - ( More quiet thought, I think I can actually hear the rust in his head grinding together to move the cogs and wheels to formualte his next stellar question )
" Do you think my car will run on beer?"

Ow.

Although, it might not be a bad idea for this one to fill his car's tank with beer. His car would break, and the rest of us wouldn't have to worry about meeting him on the road.

I wish it would. Beer is cheaper.

[Jadedcarguy]

I wish it would. Beer is cheaper.

Actually, beer is about $14 a gallon.

How about Allan Funt?

I'm moving to North Carolina.

In PA, a 6 pack of 12 ounce bottles of even the el-cheapo beer costs 3.00. That's about 5.33 per gallon.

Now I have a headache... -.-

" Do you think my car will run on beer?"

... "It might hydroplane a bit, but otherwise, yes."

And this guy in the OP survived to adulthood?

Where's Darwin when you need him. . . . that could be almost as funny as the JATO car story.

[LizaMarie]

what a wondrous and miraculous car that would be! You guys can laugh, but you just ran into the inventor of the next big thing in alternative fuel!

[Seshat]

Ethanol is a perfectly valid fuel . . .


. . . but unmodified ethanol is not suitable for engines designed to run on petrol.

[RecoveringKinkoid]

I wish it would. Beer is cheaper.

Joke, ya'll. Joke.

Where's Darwin when you need him. . . .

Being mollycoddled away from all those who need to feel his killing touch.
