If Only Gord Was More Thankful
Wherein The Gord looks into the computer.
<Ring>
“Hello?”
“Yes, this is Gord from Gamer’s Edge calling. I’m phoning with regards to the PlayStation you returned yesterday. The system came back, but games did not. Did you forget them or will you be keeping the games for extra days?”
“You got the system back, that’s the important part.”
“Yes, yes it is. That’s why I’m only phoning about the games.”
“What do the games matter? You got the system back. That’s the expensive part.”
“I’m only asking when you’ll be bringing the games back in case you did not realize they were not returned.”
“What does it matter if I don’t bring the games back? They are cheap compared to the cost of a PlayStation.”
“So I should be thankful you brought back $200 worth of hardware that you rented for $5, and forgive you for not returning $75 worth of software?”
“They’re only games.”
“Your credit card will be billed for the games you just bought. Good day sir.”
“Wait!”
