        Well this *is* the Fluttershy model...Sooner or later, it's gonna snap and just start spouting obscenities, and/or stare the intruders down until they realize yer not coming...

          Thanks for the GK, I really needed that.

          Now if you’ll excuse me, it is time for my personal attendants to lather me with warm olive oil while humming the theme from Knight Rider.
          Ha! I'll see your Knight Rider theme and raise you Equalizer theme!

          Equalizer theme, do we hear Airwolf?

          Final bid: Danger Bay!

              The Lap Of Luxury

              SC: “Well what happens when you page them? Does their phone ring? Does it keep ringing or does it just ring once?”
              Me: “I’m sorry ma’am, I wouldn’t know, it’s up to them how they would have their cell phone configured.”
              SC: “Well, not much is up to you is it? Must be a nice life! <click>”

              Really? That’s the snarky send off you’re going to go with here? You’re going with “Must be a nice life!” towards the guy whose job is to sacrifice a normal life just so he stay up all night just in case idiots such as yourself have an emergency? You must have a most peculiar mental image of what a call centre looks like. I assure you, we have neither luxurious cots to lounge on nor glistening toga clad man servants to feed us grapes between calls.

              Now if you’ll excuse me, it is time for my personal attendants to lather me with warm olive oil while humming the theme from Knight Rider.
              Aww. The best I got "Well you just keep breathing!" before hanging up on me. I was like, gee thanks for your permission.

              Are You Listening, Toy Makers?
              ( Just to quantify the stupidity here, this line sells only one product which is in the greeting phrase. )

              Me: “Are you calling to place an order?”
              SC: “What are you selling?”

              …...Ornate reproductions of 16th century door knockers featuring characters from My Little Pony. They’re all the craze for the holiday season. Would you like one? We even have some that Talk When You Knock™ and one model of Rainbow Dash that dispenses apology candy out of her nostrils if no one answers the door after 60 seconds.
              I WANT one! Seriously Hasbro please make this.

                  I'd take that bet. I've seen SO many resumes with e-mail addresses like that on them. How stupid can you get? It's not like there aren't a bazillion free e-mail sites out there where you could set up a new address with, you know, an APPROPRIATE username.

                    I'll take the Cutie Mark Crusaders door knocker.

                    Imagine having it almost knock and in a loud, ear splitting, yell
                    CUTIE MARK CRUSADERS DOOR KNOCKERS, YAY|

                    Either that or a Princess Luna, ROYAL CANTERLOT VOICE model.

                    I'll take 50 please.

                      Wow. A rather short posting for you this week. And...I have no wiseass, snarky, sarcastic, or witty comments or observations about any of it.

                      That's kind of....odd.

                      GK is most assuredly a male of the species.

                      Now, precisely WHAT species that is is still up for debate. But whatever species it is, he is definitely on the plug side, not the socket side. So to speak.

                        I've never heard that before. Quite and interesting way to put it.


                        And for the record, you can put a heart in a Build-a-Bear. And I would recommend putting a heart in it, else you might walk in and find this on your desk. Granted, he's cute, but he's got scary friends.
