Hang on a minute, if you were sold out of all the Advent calendars, doesn't that mean there are tons of those Christians around who already bought them up?  I don't get the complaint even on the complainer's own terms.

she's using logic BURN HER BURN THE WITCH BURNBURBURBBURN!!!!

There was nothing logical about what went on that day. And, as AlohaDawg said, it's just victimhood; I would posit that she would be a BETTER Christian had she gone to a Christian book store, because she could then find other things to edify her soul with, instead of coming to my store and being a shitty, complainy Christian.
You all are very lucky to be reading this- you can all watch as someone loses their soul by working December retail for the first time.

mann.

if I hear one person rant about "political correct"-ness, I will begin believing in gun ownership. Seriously. People say they're "anti-pc", but what they mean is "I am going to say whatever rude things I want, and you can't be upset by them." I'm sick of it.

My favorite comment has been this. A girl called in to the radio station, and said the following: "what really gets me bent out of shape is this. I tell someone "happy holidays", and they get mad at me. I'm telling them that I hope they have a good holiday season, and they're offended. "

But

But what?

[theinevitable]

oh jeez.
but nothing.
but nothing.

I wish I remembered what I was going to say, but, no.

I overuse conjunctions. It is horrendous-- I am trying to break myself of this habit.

Ben Stein, jousting.

This describes a scene I would enjoy watching.

[Carlos del Vaca]

The question: how many ghosts visited Scrooge in A Christmas Carol?

It's 4, y'aint?  Past Present Future, plus Jacob Marley who said "You're going to be visited by three ghosts, mon."

Correct. But given a time limit most people will blurt out 3 before they think about it. Kind of like the trick where you make somebody say "silk" 5 times then ask them what cows drink.

[JorgeFabregas]

But baby cows *do* drink milk.

But baby cows *do* drink milk.

Uh I think the trick is after saying silk five times fast, when asked that question you are likely to say silk instead of milk.  Is this correct CJ?

They're supposed to say milk. Then you say, "no, cows drink water." Although a calf does indeed enjoy itself some milk.

The other one is to have them spell pop three times then ask, "what do you do at a green light?" This one has always worked in my experience and doesn't have the inconvenient calf cop-out.

Like the say toast five times, now what do you put in a toaster? question.

I kept wanting to say 5 to the christmas carol question but then i remembered thats the muppet version.

[Carlos del Vaca]

I learned this one as "How do you spell 'boast?' How do you spell 'coast?'  What do you put in a toaster?"

[Doc]

I'm just going to assume my primary school fellows weren't cunning enough for such a ruse to be necessary.
