  • Oh for god's sakes, people!!!

    STOP DRINKING THE TOWN WATER!!!

    You're grown ups. Stop that.

    I had to tell a couple of young adults to stop hitting each other with my 3DS games.

    The Return of the Ooze part 1

    Dumb Dude (DD) Shows up, wants a refund on his recently purchased earbuds. I ask him why, he says "I tried them on and the exterior part dun fit well."

    I say earbuds are like Q-Tips. when you feel resistance, stop pushing.

    I grab one of the earphones by the wire, turn it around, flips it right back before I puke on my counter and call up Jem (big huge teddy bear of a guy), who had sold him the buds the day before.

    Me: Hey Jem, I got a guy here wants a refund on his um... very well used earbuds.

    Jem: Nope. Can't take them back if they're used. It's a Hygiene issue. It's like underwear.

    Me: Oh Reaaaaaaally? Awww, too bad then. *hangs up* Sorry dude, can't take them back.

    DD: Aw but come on! They don't fit well!

    Me: They've been abundantly used, it's like underwear, we can't take them back. They're COATED.

    DD: Aw, darn. K then...


    The Return of the Ooze part 2

    Oh my god, look! Flying out the window at mach speed! It's my sympathy for DD!

    The next morning, Jem shows up at my counter with the exact same earbud box.

    Jem: Hey Shiro, are these yesterday's earbuds?

    Me: *the disbelieving STARE* You didn't take them back, did you?

    Jem: Naw, I'm just asking. They're clean and the dude said he never tried them on.

    Me: OMG Jem, he lied to your face! You should have seen them yestersday! He told me in my face he had tried them on and they were GUMMY with EARWAX!!!!!

    Jem laughs, agrees and goes back to his side. Refund DENIED!

    DD Had went home, scrubbed some windex on the buds and tried to get a refund at the other store next door with the salesman that was the MOST INFORMED of the situation! AGH!!

    Common sense is not a super power or why you shouldn't drink when pregnant.

    This one is MINUTES fresh.

    This SC will be known as DA, for Dumb-ass.

    DA: Yes, do you have an xBox plug?

    Me: What kind?

    DA: An xbox plug that goes behind the xbox.

    Me: So it's either a power supply, an AV, Component or HDMI cable or the internet.

    DA: It's... it's a plug. My friend showed me the back of his xbox and asked me to go get one.

    Me: and he didn't tell you what the hole was for?

    DA: No.

    Me: ....do you know what happens if the plug is missing?

    DA: Do you have any xboxes in stock??

    Me: Yes, the giant box you walked past.

    We waddle our way to the console.

    DA: Open it and I'll show you. I know where it goes.

    Me:.... it's brand new sealed. I can't open it.

    DA: But I know where it goes!

    Me: But not what it does and I can't open a new one.

    DA: Don't you have an opened one??

    Me: *The STARE (tm)* .....NO.

    DA: I'll go look elsewhere.

    She leaves while I'm flailing and cursing out several imaginary Elder Gods. Look, I'm allergic to stupid and she made me fumble for my Stupipen.

    This is actually worse than the guy who wrote all the words to a song minus the CHORUS WHERE THE TITLE OF THE SONG WAS on this teeny tiny post it. Then yelled at me when I correctly guessed the singer after his very clear description of "How many 25 year old blonde girl singers are there?" To which I aptly replied "roughly 300."

    HEY KID, STOP USING MY STOCK OF DS GAMES AS A SLIDER PUZZLE!!!!



    Looking forward to my days off.
    Now would be a good time to visit So Very Unofficial!

    Great signature! And sadly, it looks like it's true.

    Earbud Man = Why do so many people never clean out their ears?!

    DA = When someone sends you on an errand, get specifics! Otherwise you look utterly stupid!
    I don't have an attitude problem. You have a perception problem.

        Upon telling the story to a couple of friends, one piped up :"Yeah, but she doesn't play with that so she didn't know."

        I looked her in the eye: "You work at Mickey D, it's like asking you for a sandwich and being told to make one at random so the customer can see if it's the one she wants."

        I myself am not Bob the builder, but when I go to House Solidware, I WILL say I need a hammer, not a "stick." "what kinda stick?" "it has a wooden handle." "what does it do?" "I 'unno."

        As for Earbud Man, I'm sad to report I've seen worse.

        XCashier, the stupidest part was that they were both idjits here: The woman for not asking what the cable was and the other person for not telling. Combo Idjit.

        Finally someone suggested I should have google-imaged the back of an Xbox. Another flaw with that plan: She refused to listen to me.

        as in "we can look on the inter-" "NO NO NO NO NO NOO NEED OPEN THIS ONE!"

        Now would be a good time to visit So Very Unofficial!

              Don't the newer earbuds with the rubber part come with multiple sizes in the package? So you can change them to fit you? (I use the smallest ones, myself) Or did he have the old ones with that sit right outside your ear canal?

                  That's the first thing I asked him, but it's not the inner rubber that gave him issues, it was the outside of the earbud that didn't fit in his ear.
