Yeah, I reckon. I used to be in sales.

"Hi, I'm calling on from the Australian Financial Review-"

"No! We pay all our tax, we no have financial problems. We do nothing wrong! No, no, go away!"

"But... ma'am... The Financial Review is a newspaper.... I was calling about a subscription."

Them: "Hi, can you help me find this book I read a few years ago?"
Me: "Sure! Which book was it?"
Them: "It was blue."
Me: "..."

Sounds like me.. but at least I knew the title. I remember that guy's face when I told him the title.. Angus, Thongs, and Full-Frontal Snogging. He just gaped and asked me if I was trying to test him. biggrin.gif

Dude, I work in a pharmacy. The average customer is in pain, irritated, and senile.

WOMAN: "MY PILL IS PURPLE. THIS IS GREEN."

ME: "The manufacturer changed ma'am, the medication is exactly the same."

WOMAN: "BUT IT'S PURPLE!!!"

ME: "..."

I went with a friend to a mini-market nearby. He ran out of condoms, so we began to joke around, not noticing that several people we know from school are there. We didn't find what we are looking for, and he went up to an attendant and asked him if he has any extra small condoms for me... I jumped my friend, saying that I don't need to the attendant, but he didn't hear me and shouted out, "Do we have any extra small condoms for this guy?"...

All in all, everyone (hopes) knows that was a joke... I sent them to my friend the next day as a gift from his girlfriend... biggrin.gif

Wtf...
Is that... 'thing'... dangerous?
Sylphas2005-09-12 17:25:43
No, millipedes are harmless. Centipedes are poisonous and carnivorous, millipedes eat plants and are venomless.

you forgot to mention that when you are asleep they crawl into your brain and force you to become a vegiterian.

I hate bugs.. >_< (cept caterpillars and butterflys halo.gif)

I hate flying bugs a lot, because they can get on you and sting you before you can get them away. Bumblebees scare me. sad.gif
Unknown2005-09-13 05:52:51
Ewww.. I hate anything that's like.. long and crawls. Freakin spooky.. god I'm not going to sleep well now.

Reference question today: *plops a little carrier thing down on the desk* What sort of caterpillar is this, and what do I feed it?
Ialie2005-09-13 05:57:03
It was the coolest thing ever. They don't tell you that when you buy a millipede that you are buying about 50 other bugs too. They come complete with their own aphids that clean out from under their scales. its awesome.

That DOES sound awesome.

I just hate flying bugs. Until I can identify that's they're not wasps. And not about to otherwise attack me.

Since we're chatting about bugs; I once put on some shorts I got out of my drawers, only to feel something start crawling up my thigh. Instead of getting somewhat aroused, I opened my shorts and looked down to see a big mofo huntsman spider having a jolly good time in my shorts.

Needless to say, the shorts flew off and I ran around the house in underwear - much to my brothers' amusement - looking for something to kill the bastard with.

I would have simply died. I'm getting over my arachnophobia, but that would cause me swift death.
