I’m Sorry, It’s Rented

Gord is working on a Sunday and putting back cases to rented PlayStation 2 games on the shelf. On the bottom shelf of the PlayStation 2 rental shelves, someone has placed a copy of “Mario Bros.” for the original Nintendo

Gord did the only thing that came to mind. He tagged it with a rental tag.

And for the next two months, people would comment on it. And when they did, Gord responded that it was a popular rental, and in fact it was out right now.

The bright customers immediately started laughing, as the cartridge was right there and thought this was quite funny.

The not quite so genius customers took a bit longer, but they too also found it amusing.

Sadly, there were far more than expected that went “I didn’t think anyone would rent it still” and would make further enquiries into the title, failing to realize the “rented game” was still right there.
