So last night I'm fixing myself dinner, and the phone rings. Some guy with an asian accent says "Hello, I need help fixing my VCR". I replied "What?", he says "You help fix my VCR!!", and I said "Who the hell is this?" to which he replies "Who the hell is this??". "Screw you asshole" I said as I hung up.
About two minute later the phone rings again. Same guy. "You hang up on me asshole" he says "you fix my VCR!". So, trying to retain my composure I said "OK, I'll fix your VCR. Stand up facing the TV with your remote in your hand, legs apart about shoulder width. Now, carefully bend over towards the TV, and shove the remote up your ass!"
Apparently, this worked, because he never called back. I thought I should share this valuable piece of knowledge with my friends at A2K.
A nice, respectable church down the road a piece has a nice, respectable pastor with whom I happen to share both first and last names. While the nice, respectable church, and the nice, respectable parsonage, have telephone listings, there is no individual listing for the nice, respectable pastor. My phone number is listed, and my address is not all that dissimilar from that of the nice, respectable church's nice, respectable pastor's nice, repectable parsonage. This has occasioned much opportunity for personal merriment ... and no doubt has occasioned some consternation for a few nice, respectable church-goin' folks herabouts.
Should he have further complications with his VCR you may want to give him a more detailed explanation of the procedure...involving vaseline and twisting the remote control sideways prior to insertion.
For a second there, I thought you were going to tell him to shove his head up his ass, but then I knew that this wouldn't fix his VCR ;-)
